This was our second stay with Kimpton, and I must admit they managed to provide an even better experience than our first stay in Washington, DC.

Kenin was very excited because we were going to drive to the Grand Canyon. Neither of us have ever seen it, and it’s on both of our bucket lists, so this was going to be a real adventure.
