There is not much if anything here but that is what you come here for. It's an old motel, with an amazing story, that could use a bit of TLC but the rooms are clean, the air conditioning works, and the water was hot in the shower. A great place to stay and show the photos to your friends.

A tiny historic town looking much the way it did 100 years ago. A tour of Marta Becket's murals in the Opera House is highly recommended; we can only hope that performances once again take place in this unique hall. The restaurant currently sits empty, so bring anything you want to eat with you. There is a refrigerator in the common area you can use to store some food.
The surrounding Armargosa Desert stretches out east, north, and south of the village as far as the eye can see. Amazingly, there is an aquifer deep underground fed by the Armargosa River (also underground at this point). So there are some ranches and tiny Nevada casino towns nearby (but not too nearby).
For more info about the Armargosa, visit the Armargosa Conservancy's website at armargosaconservancy dot org.

The information and warning to refuel before entering the National Park are true. The price of fuel in NP is really higher.
Stock up on plenty of water, the temperature is really high. Exertion in the heat will make up for the beauty that appears to be dead, but it is not.

It's close to the East entrance to Death Valley, which makes it a less expensive alternative to resort accommodations in the valley. It's also close to gas and food, which is just 7 miles away to the North, in Nevada (Nevada prices). Again, providing less expensive alternative to gas, and food in the valley.

I’ve struggled to answer the questions.
I’ve struggled to answer the questions. The answers to some were neither yes nor no, but “sort-of.” Overall, the charms may have outweighed the negatives, but there were negatives you’d have to be willing to overlook. questions

Location was good, parking was in a designated area in full sun so not directly outside your room. Bed was a little firm but fresh clean sheets. Shower was OK but you have to wait 10-15 mins for the hot water to come through. Apparently only 1 boiler for entire hotel. Fresh drip coffee made in the lounge area at 8am each morning.. There is a fridge and microwave near the coffee for everyone to use. Cafe/restaurant not open.
quaintness and quirkiness of the whole establishment, its historic character, the old photos and murals (even though they were peeling!), the ability to have tea constantly and coffee in the morning, and to make your own meals (breakfast and dinner) using the microwave, toaster and frig in the room by the old dining room. This should be made better known in the advertising of the hotel.
An absolute dump, dirty. Run down, paint falling off walls, dirt parking with pot holes and puddles, filthy, plumbing didn't work. After checking in, seeing our room and learning that you had to let the water drip for 15 minutes before you could turn it on, we left and spent the night elsewhere. Lost $113. Can't believe you list this hotel on your site!!!
If you want luxury and a modern hotel experience this place is not for you, but if you’re like us and you appreciate an authentic historical hotel, this is the place for you. The old hotel has nice historical features, you’re a 30 minute drive away from the center of Death Valley, and the staff is very friendly.
Ive stayed here a few times so I knew what to expect. It appears that some work is being done on both the outside and inside of the hotel to make it look a bit better. This is a one of a kind hotel with a great story and it deserves to live on.
Great location, just outside Death Valley NP, and great value. The hotel is older and actually not updated, but it is still comfortable. The main asset, though, is the unique history and the "opera house". Quite unexpected and memorable!
Amargosa Opera House is located in remote Death Valley Junction, a former borax mining town. The rooms are small, but comfortable. Marta Becket's murals adorn the entry way and dining area. Breakfast was not included.
It is in a fantastic location and the hotel is characterful and unique. It was a great one night stop before we visited Death Valley and beyond and make sure you get a tour of the Opera House. You will not regret it.
Quirky old hotel near Death Valley. Showing its age a bit which is either charming/interesting to some but may be run-down to others. We enjoyed reading about the history of the place and the Opera stage.
it was an experience! The history of the Opera House was what we came for, and it did not disappoint. I wasn’t expecting much from the hotel, and it was actually ok. The room was sparse, but clean.
Fantastic, historic and atmospheric hotel. It’s obvious age and quirky facilities are its advantages if you’re willing to indulge them. Friendly staff. Highly recommend the Opera House tour.
