I attempted to stay the night of the 14th (JUL) and was told there was not a military rate by the very rude desk associate (wish I had got his name.) I was quoted 159.00 a night even though the super 8 and other hotels were charging 81.00 a night. I told him I was on official government orders and showed my ID and he said quote " everybody has a military ID, go to your car and get your orders and I will ask the owners if they will give you a GOV rate". I am a 21 year veteran of the USAF and have never been so offended in my entire career! I guess making money for the owners is more important than appriciation of your service to your country. I just had him hand me back my ID and credit card and he laughed?? My Mom and Dad live in Camp Verde and I see them 4-5 times a year. You can bet I will never stay at your hotel in the future.

I stayed at this hotel as Flagstaff was full (Homecoming weekend, who knew?) and was impressed with the pleasant welcome I received. The real surprise was getting up in the middle of the night to take a peek at the skies. The area is very dark and the skies are very clear once the nearby restaurants turn off their signs. You will be surprised at what you can see with the unaided eye.
