Thunderbird Lodge, Chinle

VERY OVERPRICED, TERRIBLE FOOD, NOT UP TO DATE AND DIRTY AREA TO STICK A HOTEL. WORTH HALF THE COST. GO STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Staff was OK not overly friendly, room was clean but shabby. Food in the Cafeteria was terrible. Would not stay again when Holiday Inn is 1 mile away and $40 cheaper and has a good restaurant.

This old motel-like lodge was adequate and clean enough but nothing special. Our room was a bit run down and not as nice as other, less expensive motels in the area. We found the restaurant really poor quality and the staff on the verge of disinterested/unfriendly. We plan to visit Chinle again in the Spring and we will be staying elsewhere. Canyon de Chelly itself was fabulous!

After making reservations for two nights at Thunderbird Lodge three months in advance, and confirming the reservations before leaving home, upon check-in my reservations were incorrect. I had specified 2 beds, but only one was provided. This was inappropriate and my objection was made known. I was told by the surley, rude male desk clerk that nothing could be done. Consequently our tour of Canyon de Chelly, also booked in advance, had to be canceled as well.
