We stayed here for two nights in May. The rooms were very plain, which isn't a big deal. They were kind of musty smelling though. The biggest problem is the overall cost compared to what you get, but I guess that is the way it goes in a National Park? more

The previous reviews are mostly on the money. It is a basic room but our 1st night we were in bright angel lodge and this room was HUGE by comparison. However, it was not as clean. It had some sort of stain on the sheet ( I allowed myself to be convinced it was a iron scorch, but made my... more

Standard lodge inside the Grand Canyon. No frills and the room was bit smelly. But the place is amazing, it's just difficult to get good deal compared to the cities and you need to book in advance! more

We spent one night in Yavapai after spending a night at the El Tovar. Yavapai is much cheaper--and feels it. The rooms were clean, but sort of tired, Motel 6 type rooms. It was also quiet, which is a plus. If you were wanting someplace just to sleep and grab a shower, Yavapai would be fine. more

We stayed in the one story wing with rooms that did not have air conditioning or a fridge. In June, the a/c was not needed at all and we carry a plug-in cooler so did not need the fridge. The rooms were clean and everything worked. Okay, the television reception was not the best but if you go to the... more

Stayed at the Yavapi Lodge June 12 and June 13. The room was large and the bathroom was okay. I was not expecting a five star hotel and I thought the Yavapai was a good choice. The Yavapai is a five minute walk from the rim, and was in a wooded location. The General Syore and Post Office were both... more

I had read the reviews about the Yavapai Lodge, and thought I had prepared myself to not expect to much. I was still very disappointed. The room smelled, one side of the window would not open, the sink dripped constantly, just very bad place overall. I did not report the window/sink since I did not want to hang around waiting... more

The best way to describe the Yavapai Lodge is a La Quinta that hasn't been updated. It was clean. You must remember that you are in a National Park...not New York City. Have realistic expectations...and you'll be fine. The cafeteria had a decent selection. We only ate there for breakfast, but it had the standard selection - eggs, bacon, sausage,... more

One of the cheapest lodging options in the park and still not far from the rim. If you MUST stay in the park and don't care about a room with a view over the rim, then Yavapai is a great choice. The cafeteria is the cheapest eatery in the park and the food is decent enough. The room was far... more

Stayed here on 6/05/09. Rooms were ok...fridge, coffee maker, hair dryer. But, the mattresses were old and the pillows small and mushy! The walls looked like the inside of a warehouse. But, I guess you're paying for location. As we didn't feel like driving the 60 miles to sleep over in Williams, AZ. We ate at the Canyon Cafe on... more
