The room rates are high, I accept that, the options within the park are limited, so they can charge you quite a bit. We booked a standard queen room, one of the more expensive rooms. It was spartan. As advertised, there was no TV, no refrigerator and no microwave. Very old worn carpet. Beat up wooden furnishings. Bathroom was nice,... More

I stayed here for a couple nights and loved most everything. I was in the Roadrunner building, but I here that the older rooms are not as nice. Pros: Excellent restaurant and food. Best Saloon in California as far as I'm concerned, 20 tap beer system, clean large room with view of the dunes. The gas is $1 less a... More

The 4:00PM check-in is ridiculous. The lack of a TV in an expensive room is ridiculous, especially when TVs are available in higher price rooms. There's a difference between charmingly rustic, and shabby. My room was absolutely shabby, and I paid over $130 for a single night. The only way this hotel gets away with highway robbery is the fact... More

I am so pleased that someone wrote a bad review about Stove Pipe Wells because that means that those of us "in the know" can have this little gem to ourselves and don't have to share the wonderful pool, fireside camp songs and lovely real old western saloon. The staff was wonderful and the restaurant was delightful. I checked my... More

Having arrived with a group of photographers for a 2 night stay, we were all allocated accomodation in the Roadrunner block. Having checked the reviews, I was HORRIFIED to find I was in the cursed room - 212. I immediately removed my socks & shoes and embarked on a barefoot tour of the room, in search of grime, cockroaches and... More

DO NOT STAY HERE Pay a little more and go to stay at Furnace Creek Ranch. Our room (212) was filthy. We killed five cockroaches in the room. I had to sleep with my 1 year old son in my bed as I was too disgusted to put him in his travel tent that sits on the floor. After allowing... More

We stayed on 25th April 2012 and were allocated Room 212 in the Road Runner block. Having pre-booked our room for 3 adults plus baby, the room was only made up for 2 adults. On asking for additional towel, mug and coffee, we were handed a pool towel, cardboard beaker and coffee with apologies. During the evening we found cockroaches... More

Choices are limited in Death Valley National Park, but this hotel could be so much more than it is. If it were not within the Park the price for a nights stay would be way too much to pay. The pool, although nice to look at, was freezing cold - not heated - which might be fine in the summer... More

We stayed at this place for 2 nights but I did nt like the accomodation. Its too basic and very old.Food at the restaurant was good and people were very nice as well. The people in the reception area which are supposed to be the nicest were the worst, they did nt even smile or say good afternoon, which is... More
