Again, it was nice to stay where I went through grades 1 - 3 and have the room next to where my Mother taught first grade! Also, this was down the street from where our home was at 531 Lomita! MANY MEMORIES

These little guys greeted me Saturday evening at 8:00pm!

My mother’s school room was old #45, before you got to the playground.

Although I did spot a few hairs and tiny black stains on the bed linens, those minor (and fairly common) imperfections weren't enough to dock a star from otherwise very clean, comfy, quiet place to spend night.

Fabulous historic property, with modern touches. We stayed in an old school room, with modern updated. New bathrooms. Ajo was a fun town, great pizza place in town, fun center square and great visitor center. Nice 1-2 day visit.

Lovely and interesting place to stay in the historic part of town. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. We stayed in a kitchenette room which has all the equipment we needed to prepare food, although we mostly ate out.
