Jerome


We stayed at the Grand Hotel on Mingus Mountain. It was built in the 1920's, and used to be the hospital for the miners.














Much of the building was original, including this Otis elevator. The doors had to be opened manually. I think the wallpaper is original too because there were lots of scrape marks on the walls where a gurney would hit it.















We hoped to see some ghosts, but no luck. There have been sightings of Claude Harvey and a ghost cat. The hotel restaurant is called The Asylum in reference to the crazy ward.














It offered a great view of the Mogollian Rim and Sedona.
