Bought the Railway Getaway package. For all the flash, this one dies in the pan for lack of details. Kind of like a theme park motel with all the kids and families and packaged "deals". If you really want to take the train into the Grand Canyon, go in the off season, get your tickets for the train, stay in another motel and enjoy Williams, AZ.
