Flagstaff is wonderful. The fall colors are what we are here for. Our room is far too small! I paid more money for a bigger room with our own bathroom but the bathroom we got was tiny, tiny! It feels like the hotel may have divided one bigger room and turned it into two to make more money. My partner and I aren’t large people and we had a hard time fitting into the tiny shower provided. Also the windows have lovely views covered in several dubious smudges that give me the ick. There’s hair in the shower drain and the water has a hard time coming out of the faucet.
Overall the hotel is very dirty. Think dusty baseboards, stained carpet, dirty corners and cobwebs on light fixtures in lobby. The things you use, bathrooms and beds, are clean. Staff was very friendly. Lady at the front desk left her station to fetch us an extra pillow. Go early to get parking in their lot. Unfortunately we did not encounter any spirits.
We were disappointed with the condition of the property. Reviews had lead us to expect a 4-5 star facility . Rooms were very tired and bedding was worn out & uninviting.
Location excellent. Parking lot was full, no space for our car. Left in our own to figure out alternate parking.
Enjoyed the charm of this old hotel. Things were clean and well maintained. Lounge was a hot spot for a young crowd which is fine, but there were times people were hanging out on the sidewalk and bit noisy. I'd suggest the security guy I saw working maintain the level of outside noise of bar patrons for people like myself staying there to sleep.
The jacuzzi was great and we loved our room and my partner and I just love how everything is within walkable distance!! Must stay place when visiting Flagstaff, only thing that I found inconvenient is that if the hotel parking lot is full, you have to find street parking (which can be far) and pay for that which isn’t a big deal but just be prepared. Overall a great stay at this beautiful haunted hotel!
Everything was serviceable for a historic hotel. I liked how every room was unique and likely furnished from estate sales or antique shops. My only suggestion would be to keep the beds/bedding uniform between all rooms and use duvets…old bedspreads and blankets are charming in a cabin but not in a hotel.
The front desk staff who checked us in was terrible. Unfriendly. Fast talking. No eye contact. No welcome. No smile. A few hours later when we entered the area by the front desk to access the elevator , the attendant (a different one ) gave no smile or acknowledgment. One time when we entered he hotel , There was staff at the door area cursing amongst each other about something. I believe it was in jest but , it was shocking to have no greeting but instead hear cussing.
The bar was the main attraction but the bar tender Kelly was more interested in customers who ordered drinks that needed shaking to put on a show. We waited a half an hour for another drink while she kept telling us to wait while she served people who had just walked in. It was rude. As I guest of the hotel she treated us with total disrespect. The hotel is old. We had adventures that made us leave the hotel at 4:00am. It would have been nice to have a coffee pot in the room…just saying
We booked our room on a Friday which we learned is live music night. If you want a quiet night don't get a room on the east side, but the hotel does give complimentary ear plugs.

Disliked: Staff & service
I reserved a wheelchair accessible room 7 weeks a head of my visit, there were 5 calls weeks ahead ensuring I'd be placed properly. When I checked in I was assigned the "Bob Hope" suite. My chair BARELY fit in the room where there was a small path just around the bed, I wasn't able to access the restroom at all, and the entire room (including into the restroom) was adorned in long shaggy carpet so I was unable to ambulate in the room at all. When I reported the issue I was first offered half off my stay, I had to argue to get a full refund. This left my sons and I scrambling to find accommodations (we finally did 10 min away for over double what my initial reservation price had been) and by the time we got checked in I missed the event I came to town for making the entire trip a waste! I emailed management on 9/22, today is 9/26 and I haven't even received a response. Very Disappointing from a place I previously considered my favorite in all of AZ.
