Excellent hosts, super friendly and welcoming. Historic property with original architecture and interesting features. Second time stay, will definitely be back!
This place and its history is very cool! Being able to stay in a place with so much history, isn’t something you have the opportunity to do very often. With that being said, it is old and very quirky and definitely more on the lines of roughing it. If you can appreciate a cool piece of history and want to stay close to Death Valley it does the job…

Staff and explaining hotel and rules. History is amazing! A true gem where time has slowed down.
This is an historic hotel that hasn’t been updated throughout any point in history. This makes it quaint and cute. It does mean, however, that the rooms are old and historic too. Tile in the bathroom was falling apart, carpet was rough, we had to wipe lots of dirt off of the bed comforter. Just know going in, it’s old and needs lots of attention.
Staff is super friendly, great proximity to Death Valley National Park.
This run-down hotel is bursting with love and pride, which more than accommodate for its many obvious shortcomings. I love it. The staff were stellar -- especially Tammy, at the front desk. This hotel is not for everyone, but, for the patron of a certain ilk, it is pure magic.
The Opera House is not where you go if youre looking for in room massages. Its a historical building made of adobe with a unique back story that excuses its sometimes flaky exterior. You stay here for history. You stay here for the unique experience. The entrance to Death Valley is literally a block away, making this a hikers dream. The wild donkeys come to drink next to the back of the property in the morning. The staff are some of the friendliest around. The rooms have a bed and a hot shower, theres a microwave and a plethera of games, as well as a book nook. And an experience you cannot get at the soulless modern hotel. Make sure you take the tour if youve never heard of Miss Marta.
