Great location inside Death Valley National Park. Also very good steakhouse in the saloon. Negatives: very packed to the point of overwhelming a exremely friendly staff. Lines at check in and ice cream store were tough for some families with small children. But the ice cream was worth it as were the food arnrestaurants on site. Great view of mountains and a nice town square park.

Still the place to stay, but going downhill

I've been staying here for years and it's been fine. The kind of rundown nature of the place gives it charm. But this time the place seemed a little more run down than usual. The only cups in my room were so dirty I couldn't get the coffee flavor out of them when I tried washing them myself. The stains in the hallway carpet look neglected. The new wifi system constantly disconnects you and is hard to log back into. There are lots of little things.... Mind you, this is the only option unless you want to spend more than twice as much, and this place is already a bit overpriced. Stay here. But don't get your hopes up. Also, this was my first time driving an EV into the park. The EV chargers here are nearly impossible to activate without help and are slow, level 2 chargers, so you can't really rely on them to get around this seriously large park.

Worst hotel experience ever

AWFUL rooms. They’re dark, dingy, and dirty. The beds didn’t even have fitted sheets on them, but a regular sheet tucked into the mattresses instead. There was hair in the shower, and urine stains on the toilet. I will never stay at this property again. I felt bad for the workers: most were sweet, but clearly they’re overworked and undercompensated. This property’s rates are WAY too high to justify the conditions of the rooms and the moods of the staff.

It’s unique as it’s a community but lines to eat/ waiting for a table is ridiculous. No where else to go to eat outside the community. The general store is where we had to eat dinner. Which is a bummer. Rooms were dirty and not well taken care of.

Service was meh, location is great.

For the price you pay at this hotel, the service is really lacking. I requested that we have extra pillows delivered to the room, and they were never brought up. Our shower did not have a shower curtain, so the floor got soaking wet and was a slip hazard after the showers. There were cleaning supplies left in the room, so it’s obvious that housekeeping was there….not sure if the no shower curtain is part of the “eco friendly” thing or what. But it was not pleasant. The location was convenient but if the property is going to be lacking in service, the price should reflect that.

Perfect base for exploring Death Valley

We absolutely loved staying at the Ranch. The property is beautifully maintained and offers multiple restaurants (good food!) a general store and more. It is the ideal spot to stay while exploring Death Valley. Our room was in an older part of the property, which has become shabby over time. For example, there was a big rip in our window treatment and the room needed a good vacuum. Everything was just a bit tired and worn. The staff are wonderfully helpful and there is even a stable adjacent to the property - highly recommend a ride out through the Valley. Be prepared for limited WiFi even on the property! We saw it as a great chance to unplug.
