Former school converted into a conference center and hotel. Quite large rooms have a unique character. Clean. Easy parking. Nice common area gardens and pleasant staff. No tv. Good wifi signal. Food availability minimal and no amenities. In-room fresh ground coffee a very nice touch and nice gift shop. Overall, an enjoyable, comfortable room and place and easily the best hotel in Ajo, albeit a high price for the area. Would stay here again.

Clean quiet facility. Only complaint was where my room was. At end of walkway, and was advertised as view of desert courtyards. All I saw was a wall.

If you're staying in Ajo, you know there's not much there. SDICC is an unexpected bit of desert charm. Unique, very comfortable, and lots of character (in a good way). Easy walk to the Plaza, with the only coffee shop in town, and a wonderful art gallery. Hotel gift shop is awesome, too.

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.
