Older property but it was well maintained. We really enjoyed our stay. Close to Nevada Border so we were able to get gas much cheaper and The Long Street Casino had a good restaurant. The hotel was not too far from Death Valley National Park. It was perfect for us.

Advertised internet. Did not work. Just very old and tired. Only hotel available in the area, so they could charge a lot but we got very little. If you’re desperate, the bed was great and the bedding was great.

The opera house is very interesting and nice to see but it needs updating badly. The room we stayed in had peeling paint on the ceiling and the shower had cracked tiles. It is very old and the hot water took forever to get to the shower. Then the faucet was broken so it dripped all night. The owner was very nice, though.

It’s an amazing building and if you love history and old building you should stay. it’s also very old and sparse with few amenities and fragile plumbing and bad WiFi. The price is reasonable all things considered and regardless you should do the tour.

Overall good

We booked with Amargosa because of its interesting history and proximity to DVNP. The receptionist was very helpful and kind. Our room was clean and comfortable as well. The plumbing at Amargosa is as old as the building however. So that’s about 100 years. We noticed a pretty strong sewer smell in the hallway but not in our room. Also if we had wanted to shower we’d have had to keep the water running for 15 minutes before it got hot- and especially in the desert that just didn’t feel right. Overall it was a good experience though.

Wonderful Night Manager, but Very Poor Hotel

First I want to say that the wonderful young woman who checked me in was stellar. She was so nice, friendly, and welcoming. I hate giving bad reviews, however, the condition of the hotel is very poor, the water coming from the shower head was barely a trickle, there was a smell of raw sewage in the hallway and in our bathroom that literally made me a bit sick to my stomach, and the condition of walls esp around the base were quite deteriorated as if it had been damaged by flooding. Given the condition of the rooms, poor shower, strong smell of raw sewage I am surprised it passes California State inspections. There was supposed to be coffee but was none. There was no fridge, microwave, cups for water in the rooms as well. The heater/AC unit was in good condition and was fairly quiet. Bed was good and the sheets were clean with good pillows. The good about the hotel is that it is fairly near an interesting Death Valley National Park and is much less expensive than the accommodations in the park.

Just don’t

The location itself is very old. It’s over 100 years old. Normally this is my kind of thing. I don’t mind peeling paint. I don’t mind it being rough around the edges. I love the solution. I love the idea of this place. Unfortunately, it was subpar on almost all levels. And that saying a lot, I love an historical stay, which is why I chose this place to begin with. But the smell that permeated the whole place, the halls, the rooms, the linen, the pillows. The furniture was a brawl sewage. Do not stay here till corrections have been made. The only reason we stayed is it is in the middle of nowhere. We got there about 9 o’clock and there is a little around for options.

Already ready for my next stay here!

Rooms were clean and well-maintained. The hotel itself is charming and the staff was very kind. Take the tour if you can and learn more about Marta Beckett and the history of the hotel! The surrounding desert was nice to walk in as the sun rose. Some of the rooms were hand painted by Beckett and I got lucky enough to be in one!
