My husband booked this hotel through Expedia. It was the best discount rate in the area and we had planned on visiting the Grand Canyon. (( wouldn't have paid the regular rate!) The place is in need of some serious updating. Even though we booked a non-smoking bedroom, our room smelled of cigarettes because of the smoking rooms just down the hall from us. The cleaning was quite poor. And if you are expecting breakfast like it says, just head to one of the diners downtown. The hotel offers raisin bran, frosted flakes, dry miniature powder donuts, coffee and orange juice. I guess the price was right for us but I wouldn't stay here again. It needs some serious renovations!

We chose this hotel over about thirty other hotels/motels in Williams. The owner asked me while checking in if I was going to the Grand Canyon the next day. I assumed she was just being friendly, and making the usual small talk people do. I told her that we had been there that day, and were on our way towards L.A. I was slightly surprised when she asked me if she could have the ticket that we got to enter the Grand Canyon (it cost us 25 dollars, and allows you entry for 7 days). She gave me some story about wanting to go with her family the next day or something. I said no problem, it was no good to us anyway, but I had my suspicions.
Anyways..... the next morning my girlfriend and I were sitting down eating breakfast (poor) which is just next to the check in desk. Another couple were checking out. The owner asked them if they were going to the Grand Canyon. They said they were, and the owner offered to sell them an (our) entry pass for the reduced price of 20 dollars!
I can't say I was surprised, but to do it right in front of us was too much. My girlfriend went up and confronted the owner and got some non sensical explanation about it being a different ticket.
She got the ticket back. Unfortunately the couple had left because we were going to just give it to them, as was the original idea.....

Nice place with a great location for visiting Grand Canyon.
The beds and rooms are clean. They also have breakfast included in the rate, though it could be better.

It has taken me a long time to write this review. I didn't know how I wanted to list both its negative and positive aspects. Finally, I decided to just be honest. I'll start with the negatives: When opening up my first floor windows to view the thunderstorm, I noticed someone pacing outside in the rain. I was on the first floor and could see a dark figure through some of the missing fence parts. To put it politely, it was a young prostitute trying to offer her services. I immediately closed the windows and curtains. Later on, when my family returned, I was trying to find a way to go outside without running into her. I paced and paced, looking out of the upper hotel windows and until I was sure she was gone. But, there she was again, this time sitting up with the horse coach woman. I wouldn't even look at her. (A reviewer who titled their review Eeeuwww! What is That Smell? was referring to the horse manure - that, combined with the downpour and the fact that one of my relatives stepped in it on our way to the pool - and the brazen hooker - made me think that this hotel would be far better off losing the horse and chasing that girl out of there).
Now the positives: The Pakistan/Bangledesh/Indian people who run the hotel seem genuinely nice. When my family walked over to the train station to go visit the Grand Canyon, the foreign family were hospitable enough to give me an early morning room to get some rest, without charging me a dollar more.
I am very grateful to them for that. The kids LOVED the giant indoor pool and large jacuzzi. Right next to the hotel is a laundromat that I washed all of my clothes at - the dryers are wonderfully hot. Across the street is an interesting little house converted into a medievel shop. I took the kids over there later and bought an Egyptian music CD. The owner has put a lot of work into his shop, ordering merchandise from around the world. I recognized some of his metal as likely coming from Toledo, Spain, which is known for its castles.
So in closing I still give this hotel four stars out of five because the owners could have made me wait many hours before giving me a room to rest in. With a little "clean up", this place could be great!
