Very Unique Stay
Amazing renovated school. Our room I think was a former classroom and it was HUGE, with high ceilings and very large windows. Plenty of space. Great courtyard where I strolled and watched hummingbirds. Nice gift shop with free coffee. This is really such a unique place. Would definitely stay here again.

Gem in the desert
Fantastic stay, very quiet, rooms are spacious and modern, has a great celling fan, bathroom is fantastic with a great shower. Served as a great basecamp for Organ Pipe National Monument.

Beautiful artwork!
Inga, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was very charming. It is a repurposed old elementary school. The room was very large and laid out nicely, lighting was unique. I especially enjoyed the courtyard with seating areas and lovely landscaping. Ajo is a small community, a former copper mining town (the mine closed in 1985). We ate at Agave Grill, food was good and staff very friendly.
