Comfortable spot to stay in the desert

Our room was clean and well maintained. The beds were very comfortable. My husband enjoyed the swimming pool. Laundry machines were available, and while we didn’t use them, it was great they were there. There was a lot of communication from the motel. We would stay there agsin.

Used motel as stop over point on our road trip in California to access Joshua tree national park and Palm Springs. Both are located in short driving distance from motel. There are few dining options immediately next to motel and in shirt driving distance. Good stopping point for road trip on a budget. The are is bit noisy as right next to main road but it didnt bother us as after all hikes in Joshua tree and st joacin parks we slept well. Recommend visiting palm springs tram and taking trip up the mountain and doing few hikes. Views are spectacular !

We have 4 small kids and arrived late was very thankful they did let us stay but we were threatened to have to leave they said we could purchase 2 rooms however we all wanted to stay together as our kids all want to be together and 2 beds was all we need. Was only in the room late nights and early mornings so didnt use it much. Would stay again if i had to wish staff was more welcoming and understanding

Not a bad stay

Great stay for a music festival. No issues. Housekeeping attendant was friendly as was the front desk clerk. Room could use some updating but it’s not bad.

No frills place for a decent stay

Very simple, no-frills place to stay. The rooms are in dire need of an upgrade. They are really big and clean enough. I think even just replacing the carpet and maybe a new color on the walls would go a long way in making this place feel fresher. I stayed here back in 2017 and the rooms are exactly as I remember them. It's conveniently right on the highway, but not loud.

Clean, Clean, Clean

We stayed here due the location and the price as it was reasonable. This motel was likely the cleanest motel I have ever stayed in. No stains, orders, etc. The property isn't new by any stretch of the imagination but it has been well taken care of. They like the rooms serviced daily, I believe this shows they take pride in what they have and offer.

Just do it.

Very old school hotel with actual key to the room. The decor is dated. The bed was firm, pillow was flat. Slept like a baby. Would stay here again for sure.
