The town of Chinle is pretty strange, but the place is nearer the canyon and feels completely different. Staff is always friendly, rooms are clean, beds are comfortable—can’t beat it for the price. And Canyon de Chelly is amazing.

Cozy accommodations at an excellent rate. The staff was very accommodating, checking us in at a very late hour. After a long day on the road, our room was just what we needed, clean, quiet & warm. Would stay again. Would recommend to friends.
