Small efficient coffee maker.
Donata N.

My husband was working in Sedona so my son and I drove up from Phoenix for the weekend. Property is easy to find, located within walking distance of several very good dining options and a short drive to the touristy area of uptown Sedona. Check in was quick and easy. Both gentlemen at the desk were pleasant and accommodating. You can definitely tell the property is older but well taken care of. Not much in the way of amenities except the small pool and spa. Ice machine and laundry on the first floor. A Circle K market and tourist center across the street. Now the room. We had a corner 2nd floor unit, 2 queen beds. Room was equipped with a small microwave, a mini fridge (that didn't get cold enough) and the one cup coffee brew system! I must say this was probably one of the cleanest hotel rooms I've ever stayed in. Sheets crisp white, toilet, shower and sinks sparkling. Carpet clean and not worn. The only thing I didn't like was the pinesol smell. Free breakfast in the mornings, which we didn't partake. Overall this was a quick enjoyable stay that half the cost of other rooms in the area. I would definitely stay again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

The good: sure a clean hotel. The Bad: if you will be staying on the first floor be prepared to hear the foot steps from the second floor. On check in we asked if we can stay on the second floor. The reception mentioned that all rooms on the second floor are booked. Requested if we can be moved to second level when there's available since we will be staying here for whole week! He said he will put the request on the manager. Today. I got a call from the manager saying that they cannot move us because we booked a standard room and the only way for us to be moved is if we cancel the reservation to the third party booking site and book with them. Informed them that our reservation comes with the car and we cannot do that. She mentioned that third party reservation cost them 20% of the entire rate of stay. To make this short. They are not willing to accommodate you because we booked on a third party reservation even we stayed here. They want to cancel the reservation to priceline and re book to them and give us the same rate. For what? To get the whole rate and not pay the 20% to priceline? I forgot to mention that we booked a a queen bed and for some reason they said we only have 2 guest listed. We are party of 4 with our kids which we ended paying 25$ more Per night because they said. We only booked for "2 people". This is the first time we encountered this. Managers and staff not willing to accommodate you because of the 20% charge of priceline. Definitely disappointed! Update: we cancelled our reservation through priceline but we did not rebook directly to them. These people only care for making money than how the people will feel about their stay. We will not recommend this place to any of our relatives.

Very nice hotel, kinda small. I not fond of the refrigerator? It's on but no ice tray so the water that needs to be cold takes a day to get little cold. But the rooms are clean, the place is clean. They told me that there is an additional charge of $75.00 for a deposit, but I hoping after reading the other reviews I get it back. The rooms are clean. The bees are a bit stiff (not like the Fairfield in where I fell asleep very fast). I could not get cable access, it only has like 10 channels. It was recommended by someone I knew on Facebook. Also the Jacuzzi needs to be cleaned. I was looking on the bottom of it, it's caked in dirt.

Hidden fees, watch out! On the evening of May 15, 2020 at about 10 o'clock I went to check in to my room and was told by the desk clerk that I was going to be charged $40 extra for having two people I told the desk clerk that I was unaware of that and it didn't seem fair that I would be charged extra money especially because we had two queen size beds The clerk then quoted some hotel policy as to why it was OK to charge me extra money above what was agreed upon online I told him that I would like to speak to his manager the desk clerk refused to give me his managers name I asked for his name and he refused to give me his name either I'm not exactly sure what to do at this point because if I cancel now I will lose my online deposit I would highly suggest if you don't want to have a negative experience Booking a room just don't stay here, there are plenty of hotels for the same price or cheaper in Oak Creek and Sedona the worst part about this is the feeling of being taken advantage of while I'm vacation. I snapped a picture of the guy and if there are any additional fees that show up on my card I've posted the picture for those of you guys who care Do not book here! Daniel

Remodeled clean rooms
Liz C.

I stayed here about a month ago for about 3 nights. The rooms are clean and look as they have been re-modeled. It's not fancy, but gets your needs met for a budget motel (considering it's still about $200/night). The staff were friendly & courteous. There didn't seem to be an included breakfast as other Yelpers had mentioned, but it did have a small pool and jacuzzi. It's on the corner across the street from a gas station where you can fill up on water and snacks and also across from restaurants, etc. It's a relatively good spot to drive to hikes such as Cathedral Rock & downtown Sedona (about 10-15 minutes) and about a mile to Bell Rock. We had a good night sleep during our stay. Granted the blanket could have been higher quality, but considering it's a budget hotel- not bad. So, most importantly, it's a CLEAN place to stay, nice staff, and good distance to hikes, downtown. Would stay here again if I'm traveling on budget.

My friend and I love to visit Sedona and although our trips there are usually day trips, we decided to spend the night this time around, especially since we were going hiking though Red Rock country. Since we were traveling on a limited budget, we decided to book a room at The Views Inn. It turned out to be a good choice: the staff was friendly and helpful, the room was spacious and really clean, and the large beds really comfortable. It's just a few miles outside of Sedona proper, so it was convenient as well. And the name is appropriate; there are great views of the famed red rock formations of Sedona from the inn. A really good deal for the money.

I suffer from severe separation anxiety, but I was not allowed to stay with my owner at The Views Inn!
Steve A.

WARNING: those of you with ESAs, DO NOT BOTHER BOOKING HERE! You will be turned away and not even suggested other places. We were not allowed here because my dog is not a "service animal", even though he is a certified "Emotional Support Animal". He suffers from severe Separation Anxiety, and because we were attending a family member's wedding, there was no one to stay at home with him and is worse in unknown environments; I do not leave him in kennels. So, I had to take him (ESA vest and letter in hand). Upon, checking-in, I notified the person at the front desk that I had my ESA dog. He told me that because he is not a service animal, he was not allowed. I informed him of the situation, as well as the fact that I have traveled with him before, and have never had a problem with him being allowed at any other place (including restaurants and other hotels that are not "pet friendly"). To which, he answered, "We do not accept animals that make YOU feel good. It's policy". I could have made a scene, but rather decided to take my business elsewhere, which luckily I found the Sedona Rouge (a bit more expensive but worth every penny)! They even waived the "pet fee" because they noticed my dog was an ESA and not simply a pet! So, for those of you with ESAs, DO NOT BOTHER COMING HERE! You will be turned away and not even suggested other places. One positive note, the front desk person at least did not charge me for the "last minute cancellation".

Pros: - good location (Big Park, AZ), closer to many hiking trails if you compare it to hotels in Sedona (about 8 miles from Sedona) - clean - across the street from a small shopping center - many items to chose from at breakfast - big rooms with fridge, microwave, efficient and clean heaters - compared to hotels of the same caliber in Sedona, quite cheap Cons: - had a bit of a problem with room service (found strange hairs in freshly changed towels and 2 days out of 5 room service thought we didn't deserve shampoo and conditioner). It is true, the first day I didn't leave a tip since I usually leave a larger sum at the end of my rather long stay. The next day, seeing that I didn't get shampoo, I started leaving tips and the shampoo reappeared as by miracle. I would have left a larger tip if it weren't for this "now you see it, now you don't" game. - I would have preferred to keep my towels and reuse them but they do not offer this eco-conscious/money-saving option here. - very spotty to no WiFi reception - if you come to this area for shopping and not for hiking/nature, Big Park is considered a "commuter-city" by some, therefore may prove not cool enough for the more urban/glamorous types ;-)

Best deal in Sedona area bar none! Located in the Oak Creek village area, west Sedona. Arrived on a Friday at 3PM. We were able to secure A room with a view of Bell Rock, one of the "vortex" monuments. The access road for a short hike to these areas are less then one mile away. It's only 10 minutes from the "uptown" area. The hotel has a small pool and jacuzzi The room is large. Fireplace, tub jacuzzi, microwave. Refrigerator, and double sinks. The room was super clean and nicely decorated. The staff is pleasant and accommodating. They recommended a great Italian restaurant, Cucina Rustico, 10 minute walk , that was one of the best we have ever dined at. All this for $160. Anything comparable is twice the price.

As we're cruising down the main street we passed The Inn Above Oak Creek and noticed they had a lit-up vacancy sign. We immediately went in and met with the inn keeper who offered to let us go see the room before we committed to booking. This is THE cutest little 13 room inn set right on Oak Creek. There is seating down by the creek, on the patio off the main room, and inside the main room itself that all have great views. Our room was very spacious with a 2-person sized bathtub and a fireplace! It had truly the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in away from home. My husband was obsessed and wanting to know how we could copy it to have at home. Both of the inn managers were so kind and took such good care of us. You could feel how much they care for the inn and value their guests. There's always coffee and water set out. They have homemade cookies in the afternoon and homemade muffins in the morning. They have a bookshelf with various options for reading and a large selection of movies. On the coffee table, they have binders full of recommendations for trails and exploring the area. It was such a cute and intimate place to stay. I'd recommend it to anyone traveling to Sedona and I'd love to stay here again! We truly couldn't have found a better place to stay for Valentine's Day. We felt so lucky to have gotten a room here.

After the call she greeted us, but throughout the interaction she seemed unsure and a bit confused about the information she was giving. I would strongly suggest additional training on customer service and job knowledge to ensure guests feel welcomed and confident in the information they receive. Especially at a property where guests are paying around $1,000 a night, first impressions and professionalism are very important. Aside from that initial front desk experience, everything else about our stay was wonderful.

Luxurious linens and comfortable bed was a big win for me as I am a very sensitive sleeper. The attention to details and ensure your level of comfort are thoughtful, The all inclusive non alcoholic beverages and snacks in the room was a plus. Beautiful spa, small but again the most gorgeous interior design for the treatment room I have everseen. The spa locker room is a bit strange with a toilet inside without an enclosure. They only have one sauna outside and no shower unless you arrange with the desk. I also tried the oxygen bath...not exactly sure what it did except to feel like just soak in a bath tub :) my therapist was nice but feel green, she did her job and check in for pressure but didn't really deliver and addressed my issue. I was very tired from my early morning hike and felt asleep yet my awareness I know my massage felt like it was rubbing oil or a lotion application instead of a true therapeutic works. The restaurant could use some improvement with their cooking techniques as the food was just mediocre, lack of balance, flavor and strakbwas overcooked. I would leave the property for other food options on my next stay. Breakfast was fine, not a wowzer but it came with the stay so we are it, dinner were somewhat disappointed. Regardless we enjoyed our stay, LOVE and appreciate how attentive the guest services team are, and everyone delivered an above and beyond 5 star service and well run establishment. The cute little boutique shop in the lobby also carried and well thought out selection of products and branded merchandises. Thank you for a memorable stay.
