Grand Canyon Signature Hummer Tour with Optional Sunset Views
"The property was very nice. The only suggestion I would give you would be the pool. The water is way too cold. It doesn’t have to be hot just enough to take the edge of the cold water."
"We were there when about 100 students from Italy checked in for an overnight stay. We weren’t able to get the rooms we wanted but I have to say they handled the crowd well at checkin and even during the continental breakfast."
