Beautiful stay in the heart of Navajo Nation
Very welcoming place at the heart of Navajo Nation. Clean, friendly, good service, and a nearby cafeteria and sights to see. Follow the signs from Chinli and you should have no problem. I was greeted with wild horses when I arrived, which was extra special.

Great stay on Navajo res
This was an older motel on Navajo Reservation near Canyon de Chelly National Monument. All the staff was friendly and we had a fantastic meal at the restaurant. Rooms were clean. Should mention water pressure was prob very typical for that area but def not high pressure or a lot of it. Remember you are on a reservation and i honestly would be surprised if any other hotel in the area had anything better. Driving through the reservation to get there was a stark reminder of the poverty some of the Navajos live in. And I’d rather give my money to them than another corporation. Beautiful gift shop as well
