formerly the Anasazi Inn is now murals and carries a political message on the side of the building on the left side. I can't remember what it said now. It's apparently part of the Painted Desert Project.
Found this: The art piece spans three separate buildings, with the largest mural standing at the two-story section in the center. Bright yellows, oranges, and pinks at the edges of the building melt into cooler blues, with a giant eye’s violet iris at the center, its black pupil reflecting an orange desert landscape. The colors intermingle with black calligraffiti and several smaller eyes that dot the second story. The smaller, one-story building to the north features portraits of three Native women, their expressions strong and unwavering. To the north, blocky white and blue letters span the third building. They read: “AMERICAN RENT IS DUE.”
This installation represents one of the latest additions to the Painted Desert Project, which connects Native and non-Native public artists with the reservation through mural opportunities. https://www.theindy.org/article/2546
