This property continues to be beautiful and well maintained. I have visited this location several times and it continues to be a lovely location. It was my first time visiting during the holidays. It is so beautiful with the decorations and loved the attention paid to the Polar Express. Location is centrally located and have the ability to walk to route 66 to visit the stores and restaurants.

Hotel is conveniently located walking distance to downtown. The hotel has done a great job decorating for those who are visiting for the polar Express. We took the train to the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed Spencer’s Bar, easy to grab a cocktail to sit by the fireplace. There are no housekeeping services during your stay. There are things run down in the rooms but we made do.
