Convenient & Friendly
Conveniently located next to the train depot. Staff was very friendly & knowledgeable about the train schedule and what to expect. The only complaint I have is that the toilet paper was like sand paper! Other than that, amazing atmosphere, service, & location.

Beautiful, large lobby with comfortable furnishings - many bronzes that highlight the history of the region. The lodging was quiet and comfortable while there was ample parking for such a large property. The registration staff on check-in was attentive to our arrival and greeted us with an easy process (particularly using the pre-check in procedure). The check-out staff was somewhat pointed and cool in demeanor; not what I would want from my team in engendering return visits. The price was a good value given the beauty, location, and finishes throughout the property. This is the place to stay in Williams, AZ.
