Nice stay right inside Death Valley National Park. Be aware that there are cheaper options at Stovepipe Wells. I think The Ranch, which is just up the street and the sister property to The Inn is also a bit more affordable. The Inn was very charming. Could definitely appreciate the glam factor it must have had in the 1920's.The Inn has some history which is worth reading about. The pool area was lovely, as were the gardens and palm date grove. Hallways in the main area had a weird and somewhat unpleasant smell, but the rooms seemed better. We didn't eat at The Inn, but visited the Saloon at the Ranch for dinner two nights which was really good. We also checked out the ice cream shop at the Ranch. Try their housemate sodas--really tasty! The one thing that I thought was disappointing for the price was that the "coffee bar" that was supposed to be ready at 6:30 a.m., was not. While normally I wouldn't complain about something like this, it seems like the thing to do in the park is get up early and get to some great areas to watch the sunrise, so having to wait 10-15 extra minutes for a coffee was kind of annoying. There were coffee machines in the rooms, so that was an option, but for $600/night, if the coffee says it's ready at 6:30, it should be ready at 6:30.
