I hate to be negative, but the poor sad hotel has seen better days. No amenities exist, in spite of the existence of an onsite cafe advertised in the listing. The hallway smelled of old sewage to a degree that was really intolerable. Plumbing is ancient, ok, but hot water is barely functional. Nothing else is open in Death Valley Junction so nowhere to get anything at all. The historic value of the property and its beautiful murals, old buildings, is sadly being eroded. Wish it could all be restored and updated as it is well worth saving. Staff were perfectly fine and we felt sorry for them. Beds and room were clean, but the odor from the corridor seeped in.
