The shower is awful, don’t try washing your hair if you’re a girl as it takes forever. It’s old and the plumbing is old. It’s just how it is.

The location was amazing and the staff were lovely. The history was cool and it even looks cool Albeit rundown. Reminded me of a western movie.

Uncomfartable, bad smell, need more cleaning

Not bad for one night in the desert

Stayed in April 2025

the shower was a bit old and tile missing and shower knobs for hot and cold were difficult to open and shut - water dripped all nite after my shower.

for an old hotel 100 years old and suffering from water damage - they have done an excellent job of trying to keep up this hotel

Stayed in March 2025

Need to sink money into repairing shredding wall plaster in the room, plumbing was leaking in 17

The ambiance history and the set up. I'm sure it's been mentioned before but make it a lot more available to history buffs with a tour of the property and make open the cafe. If you build it they will come the same applies to the hotel it needs a lot of investment to make it a historical place that tourists will be keen to visit.

Quite old equipment, broken tiles and not so clean.

Excellent location, close to the Death Valley's main points of interest.

Stayed in January 2025

Some plumbing problems left the hall with a smell. Ulta low water pressure made showers a lengthy process.

Friendly, helpful staff. Opera house tour. Paintings in breakfast room.

Stayed in January 2025

It is completely neglected and honestly should be condemned, but it’s really sad because it is such a cool piece of history. Couldn’t sleep a wink and the smell of the 100+ year old plumbing nearly did me in. But no regrets because who knows how much longer it’ll be around.

Super cool history that is slipping through our fingers! Awesome staff and a test of your courage! Definitely do the tour of the Opera House for the full experience.

Old plumbing meant slight odor of sewage. 10 minutes drive to nearest food/gas.

Historic location. Vintage vibes. Opera house tour.

Stayed in December 2024

Walls were a bit thin and you could hear the people next door plus their air conditioning unit

This is a very interesting place, a little run down but quirky. Room small but adequate, hot water hit and miss but lots of toiletries. There is a communal sitting room with a microwave, coffee and tea supplies, fridge. There are no TV's here. It has a great history and it is well worth paying for the tour of the opera house, it was beautiful and a fascinating story about Marta Becket. There are only a few buildings in the town and no shops or bars. We drove to The Longstreet Inn and Casino for a meal which was only 10min drive.

Was tired but all part of the experience

The history, the location and the value

Stayed in October 2024

There’s hardly any restaurant or any place to eat near the hotel (I’m talking like 30min drive distance). It’d be great if they had a vending machine there at least.

The vibe is amazing, we loved the old but well maintained building

Stayed in September 2024

The structure looks like falling apart and with no investment to maintain the place. There’s a lot of vintage charm that turns pretty creepy from the low maintainance and the complete absence of life around. The bar is closed, the Opera House is not accessible. There was very little guests and no one from the structure staying at night. If I would pass by again I would probably stop to have a look but not stay over night. As two women travelling by ourselves we didn’t feel safe until we saw more guests arriving later at night.

The place has a lot of character and fascination from the abandoned village and restoration from Marta. You can feel the life there was once and the love that has been put in the 70s to it. The rooms are clean and beds are new.

Stayed in August 2024

Coakroaches and scorpions were on the corridor but this only made the place more exciting:)

Very old and not really well maintained motel in the middle of nowhere but this gives some strange charm to this place. It was a bit frightening at arrivel but we enjoyed our one night in the end.

Stayed in July 2024

Of course we need to compromise the facility given the price. I found a hole in the wall in the bathroom and the wall was very thin so I could hear the neighbors'noise.

This hotel is relatively reasonable in comparison with other hotel options in the park. Also there is a huge parking space and quiet.

Stayed in April 2024

We really liked the tour of the Opera House

Run down

Historical significance

Stayed in June 2024

Lots of things are missing in this hotel that were advertised--there was no breakfast, no food availability at all. The hotel is as clean as they can get it, but it needs to either be totally remodeled or shut down. Couldn't get the shower to run anything but cold water. Stinks in the hallway like sewer gas. Looks deserted.

A good location near Death Valley National Park that provides a cheaper lodging option. Reminds me of a ghost town, which is interesting. Is very quiet.

Stayed in April 2024

The room is basic and the shower is finicky (you need to leave the water dripping for 15 minutes to get hot water, I succeeded on my 3rd attempt). There is also absolutely nothing around (it is stated in the description), so bring your own food and drinks.

The hotel is a historical building which is conveniently located at the death valley junction, so it's an excellent place to spend the night if you're traveling in the area. The staff was very welcoming and helpful, and the hotel has shared kitchen facilities such as a microwave, a fridge, ice, cold and boiling water. You can also take a tour around the place for 10$.

Stayed in May 2024

The hotel is in a state of minor disrepair. The hallway smells due to the floor plumbing access and some of the walls need patching.

There is great history at the Amargosa Opera House, the staff was all nice, and the location is wonderful for visiting Death Valley.

Stayed in March 2024

It’s smelled like sewage and there was no fire detector in my room

The history of the hotel

Stayed in May 2024

We couldn't stay because of an issue that closed the hotel for the day that we would have stayed. Although we received a phone call, it was unclear and we arrived thinking we would be staying.

We arrived to learn that the Opera House was closed due to an issue and could not stay there. The staff was very helpful in getting us another place to stay.

Stayed in April 2024

Both inside and outside was not Well Kept. Fine idea to keep the place like once was. But repair things!!! … like they would have done in the Old days. Dirty and dusty except from the Room … Wiew from our room (2) was a junk yard… on the other hand…. Our 3. Visit, we like the place a lot, but it is sad to experience that not much is done to repair and clean up

The history of the place and the building

Stayed in April 2024

There is a lot of peeling paint and the plumbing needs an upgrade. There is no tv in the room.

After reading the reviews i was generally pleased by the stay. This hotel is full of local history which I found very interesting. The tour was well worth my time. All the paintings add charm to the place. The room was clean. The beds were very comfortable and the carpet looked to be new. The plumbing was old but by following the directions I had a nice hot shower.
