Nice clean property from a days gone by. Old school but clean and well cared for. A little pricey but otherwise good.

Everything about Stanlunds Inn is lovely - the owners, the motel, the view and the area. We immediately felt at home and were so impressed that we added an extra night's stay to the two we had booked. Hope to return.

Stanlunds is not a new property, but is very well kept up. The rooms are spacious with a small kitchen and would be great for a longer stay when you might be doing some of your own cooking. The manager is friendly and helpful and gives a great first impression when you check in. We'll definitely stay here again.

Thank you for your feedback.During hot summer days in the desert, bugs, mostly harmless crickets come out at night and they are outside everywhere. We are glad you enjoyed night sky one of the best attraction of our dark sky community.

I was very appreciative to be able to stay close to the park, booking only a week in advance. Lots of places were sold out. It was quite expensive for the amenities provided, but did not seem above market rate when I looked at other places nearby, though I did not compare amenities. There is a pool that looked very nice, but we didn't get to try it. It's a short drive to restaurants, which is very convenient. The park is not far. You can be at a trailhead within minutes. The room we had was basic and serviceable. The bed was OK, but we found it hard. There did not seem to be a remote for the TV, but it could be operated without one. There is not much else to say. No tea, hot water or cold filtered water for your water bottle. I'm not saying that's bad, just how it is. I am happy with my choice of motel. The landlord was pleasant.

It is hard to do much for this motel. They have a nice pool and staff is working hard. But it is old and for the money, it is disappointing. Probably comparable to many in this desert community. Stayed there based on recommendation of family members who have used it multiple times.

Loved our stay! Our room was so comfortable. Very 60s vibe. We will be back. Had a full size refrigerator, dishes, etc. Next time we will stay longer. The pool looked like it was heated as there were people in it. Emily, at the front desk was very welcoming.

I've stayed here before several times a while back and was always nice. It seemed to have been spruced up bit since then. It was nice and clean and plumbing fixtures etc. were very good. Only slight complaint was the AC/Heat unit was very noisy when it cycled on/off. So finally just turned it off during night. Would definitely return and recommend. It is a bit away from town center, too far to walk but makes it nice and quiet.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
For $170 a night (not the first price i was quoted but was too tired to argue). The guy was nice but the property is very old and tired out in the middle of nowhere. Bugs in the room (and fly swatter provided!). If you really need a place for the night (as I did - due to plan changes) it's OK but the price doesn't match what you get. Not far away, the same rate get a new, slick room with good amenities, surroundings and room condition.
