Already ready for my next stay here!
Rooms were clean and well-maintained. The hotel itself is charming and the staff was very kind. Take the tour if you can and learn more about Marta Beckett and the history of the hotel! The surrounding desert was nice to walk in as the sun rose. Some of the rooms were hand painted by Beckett and I got lucky enough to be in one!

Overall good
We booked with Amargosa because of its interesting history and proximity to DVNP. The receptionist was very helpful and kind. Our room was clean and comfortable as well. The plumbing at Amargosa is as old as the building however. So that’s about 100 years. We noticed a pretty strong sewer smell in the hallway but not in our room. Also if we had wanted to shower we’d have had to keep the water running for 15 minutes before it got hot- and especially in the desert that just didn’t feel right. Overall it was a good experience though.

2/10 Poor

Just don’t
The location itself is very old. It’s over 100 years old. Normally this is my kind of thing. I don’t mind peeling paint. I don’t mind it being rough around the edges. I love the solution. I love the idea of this place. Unfortunately, it was subpar on almost all levels. And that saying a lot, I love an historical stay, which is why I chose this place to begin with. But the smell that permeated the whole place, the halls, the rooms, the linen, the pillows. The furniture was a brawl sewage. Do not stay here till corrections have been made. The only reason we stayed is it is in the middle of nowhere. We got there about 9 o’clock and there is a little around for options.

Wonderful Night Manager, but Very Poor Hotel
First I want to say that the wonderful young woman who checked me in was stellar. She was so nice, friendly, and welcoming. I hate giving bad reviews, however, the condition of the hotel is very poor, the water coming from the shower head was barely a trickle, there was a smell of raw sewage in the hallway and in our bathroom that literally made me a bit sick to my stomach, and the condition of walls esp around the base were quite deteriorated as if it had been damaged by flooding. Given the condition of the rooms, poor shower, strong smell of raw sewage I am surprised it passes California State inspections. There was supposed to be coffee but was none. There was no fridge, microwave, cups for water in the rooms as well. The heater/AC unit was in good condition and was fairly quiet. Bed was good and the sheets were clean with good pillows. The good about the hotel is that it is fairly near an interesting Death Valley National Park and is much less expensive than the accommodations in the park.

Ghostly Amaragos Opera House
Room itself is spartan and worn. King bed comfy. But, the whole opera house thing is very interesting. Charming murals and artifacts in common area. No sign out front so it looks closed. Must look for hotel entrance well back from the road. Nearest restaurant 7 miles north. Food okay there. There are claims that the hotel is haunted. Not our experience.

Wanting to see stars? This is the place you want to be. Eating is 7 miles up the road. Great tea and coffee ready 7 a.m. It's an old motel with lots of character.

8/10 Very good

While the building has seen better days and the accommodations are minimal, this place is the most unique stay I've ever had and is bursting with exciting history, which the helpful staff will share on and off the tour. I'd highly recommend staying here to help keep this place alive, but just be prepared for things to be a little rough around the edges.

4/10 Fair

An interesting museum, NOT recommended as a hotel.
Not sure how the authorities let this property operate. It is literally crumbling to dust (as was the intent in the Trust of the historic owner). Plumbing is ancient (instructions to run the hot water for 15 minutes if you actually want hot water), carpet may be original, stucco is crumbling inside and out, no staff on premises after 8 pm. The bed WAS clean; the shower, due to crumbling tile---not so much. The positives are the historic interest, the "Opera" House and the artistic talent of the eccentric owner Marta Becket (who painted all of the murals on the property). The closest restaurant or food market is 7 miles away. All this should qualify the property as a museum, not a hotel. If my wife was with me, I'd be divorced.

I love that the Opera House exists, and only wish I could win the lottery and donate millions to bring it to its original condition. My only complaint is for the other guests being noisy and easy to hear through the old plaster walls. I Wish guests realized how much voices carry in their rooms. I will continue to stay here - I love its charm!

2/10 Poor

Avoid
This is a really terrible property. Granted it's an old building in remote area but I have stayed in hotels third world countries in remote areas with better facilities. Rooms are dilapidated. Towels are threadbare. There's a terrible odor in the lobby and rooms. We couldn't get out of here fast enough.

A little run down, and a little creepy at night that’s what made it kind of fun and different. Room was comfortable, and it worked for the need

Great concept. Just not quite there yet. Room was clean but had issues. Would do again to support the property- hope remodel continues. Would be a great place to stay if it can be brought up to the basic standards you expect in a 2 or 3 star hotel
