Worst experience

Even when the amenities and aesthetics of this hotel are pretty good. Customer Service is really bad: I booked a pool view room, tried to check in earlier (12:30pm) and the front desk lady said room wasn't ready until 4pm, we left and came back at 4pm, however, room wasn't still ready, waiting 30 min more and to my surprise I was given a WALL view room (picture attached) and just giving the explanation that the hotel was completely booked and didn't have any other room available, even when I explained I was there earlier, and they could at least advise me of the change of rooms, the front desk lady at the time just said: "she was taking the shift and didn't know anything about earlier". In a spite of the terrible service, we decided to stay because we had a whole itinerary planned for the weekend. And sadly, it just got worse, in the middle of the night the A/C wasn't working properly, making the room really hot and when I lower the temperature it started to make a horrible noise that didn't let us sleep the whole night. I contacted Hotels.com and got the pool view extra charge refunded and the hotel didn't a $20 fee they supposed to charge at the hotel, but the bad experience of having to go through all these issues when I only wanted to have a relaxed weekend with my family doesn't really worth the refund. I also advise of the AC malfunctioning in the morning and they just said they'll check on it, to got me thinking that that room wasn't really up to use in the first place

Always a great experience here. Staff is great, great food and bartenders are great, kind and gracious. A side note to people reading this…. I personally witnessed people ordering 4 espresso martinis and numerous other drinks and either tip the bar 1$ or NOT tip at all!!! Shame on people who see how hard they work and NOT tip well but use the excuse…. “I’m broke dude”….. well how about NOT order 50$ with of drinks to begin with? Treat the Staff at HCML better!!!

Every time I come through Arizona I stay here at the High Country Motor Lodge. The food is fantastic, a very friendly staff, the property has all the amenities you would need, and the overall atmosphere is elevated family-friendly. Whether you’re visiting the Grand Canyon or just passing through, I would strongly recommend spending the night here… or 2

We felt we picked a winner with this hotel. We were travelling through on our travels and stayed for one night. All our party said how happy they were with the hotel. Beds were extremely comfortable, the bar area was lovely to have a drink in. Not enough staff on the reception. Waited a long time to get checked out due to a customer having an issue and the queue was building up. In some reviews, people complained about the train but we only heard it on one occasion. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Great vibe if you like it - rooms just okay.

The overall resort was cool, very much a certain vibe that you better be into. The rooms felt very old with cosmetic updates only but were very clean and the bed was super comfy. One odd thing was there only a comforter, no top sheet so it was warm when sleeping. And the AC unit was VERY loud. It’s well located and none of these are big enough deals that I wouldn’t stay again.

From what I understand this was supposed to be a “resort” but I think that’s stretching it a bit far. Our room was average for a motel, and the ceiling above the beds looked as if it had mold on it. The bathroom door was difficult to close and the strike plate on it fell off. The beds were comfortable, but if you’re a light sleeper you will hear the train going by several times during the night, as well as your neighbors if they’re noisy.
Mold? Water stains?
