GOOD
ROOM,
GOOD
PRICE,
GREAT
STAFF!
Let's
start
with
the
staff.
THEY
ALL
WANT
TO
BE
THERE!
They
want
to
help
because
they
ALL
WANT
TO
BE
THERE.
This
isn't
some
Hampton
or
Holiday
Inn
or
even
Marriott.
Did
I
mention,
THEY
ALL
WANT
TO
BE
THERE?
That
means
they
want
you
to
be
there
too!
They
WANT
YOU
to
have
a
good,
even
great,
experience.
This
means
above
and
beyond
is
pretty
normal
for
them
-
please
don't
abuse
them
and
don't
ask
them
of
something
unreasonable.
Oh,
and
me
and
my
3y
8mo
old
daughter
had
a
great
time!
She
enjoyed
the
bike
rides
and
riding
in
her
backpack,
and
I
enjoyed
the
views.
Good
Room.
The
Astoria
Hotel
this
is
not.
El
Tovar
isn't
either.
This
is
the
wilderness
where
they
happen
to
bring
the
comforts
of
indoor
plumbing
and
air
conditioning.
Set
your
expectations
before
you
go.
The
rooms
are
clean
and
well
kept.
Good
Price.
Book
early.
If
you
book
late
like
we
did,
you
have
to
be
lucky.
.
.which
we
were,
only
because
we
went
on
the
off-season!
Why
is
it
more
expensive
than
the
local
Quality
Inn
in
Wichita
Falls
at
$70
(we
stayed
there
earlier
on
our
trip)?
They
have
to
get
EVERYTHING
down
small
national
park
roads
in
a
way
that
doesn't
disturb
the
beauty
of
the
Grand
Canyon
and
the
whole
reason
you're
there
-
to
have
a
beautiful
undisturbed
experience.
Can
you
imagine
a
four
lane
interstate
running
through
the
park?
Sure
it
would
make
it
more
convenient,
but
boy
would
it
ruin
the
whole
point
of
it.
Special
shoutouts:
Chelsea.
Great
energy!
A
smile
that
brightens
the
room!
Thank
you
for
the
trashbag
to
make
my
daughter
to
use
as
a
toddler
size
rain
poncho.
It
was
still
too
big,
but
we
found
another
smaller
bag
.
.
.and
then
didn't
need
it!
She
already
thinks
I'm
McGyver,
but
this
one
was
new
to
her!
And
speaking
of
that
trashbag.
.
.
Dan.
Man,
sorry
for
being
disorganized
and
not
bringing
enough
luggage
to
pack
everything
properly
that
I
had
to
use
the
trashbag
and
toss
everything
there!
Let
me
pay
for
a
massage
when
you
come
back
to
Houston
for
that
drink.
Charlotte.
What
wonderful
stories!
I
told
my
daughter
your
stories
as
best
I
could
remember.
There's
magic
in
the
Southwest,
and
you
shared
the
magic
you
knew
with
us!
EMBRACE
MYSTERIES!
TJ
currently
at
the
El
Tovar
Restaurant.
Michelin
3
star
service!
You
and
Conner!
How
wonderful
to
run
into
you
when
you're
not
on
duty!
We
were
not
able
to
thank
your
manager
for
seating
us
as
we
arrived
just
as
the
restaurant
was
closing
for
lunch.
We
had
a
train
to
catch
an
hour
later
and
she
shoo-ed
us
in.
We
had
a
wonderful
lunch
and
my
daughter
didn't
get
on
the
train
hungry!
I
wanted
to
thank
her
for
being
so
considerate
of
my
daughter,
but
she
was
not
at
the
front
as
we
were
leaving.
Her
granddaughter
and
my
daughter
share
the
same
name.
EVERYONE.
If
I
gave
you
my
card,
that
means
I
found
something
awesome
about
you
and
want
to
keep
in
touch!
