High Country Motor Lodge – Near NAU/Downtown
Overall the property is very unique and has been updated in a nice modern vibe. The atmosphere both inside the facility and outside the main area. The rooms are an updated lodge hotel but the bed was very comfortable. I would stay here again but try to get a room facing the Courtyard area.
