Nice place for a one-night stay. This is a small older motel that can offer affordable rates because it doesn't have high overhead costs. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed a restful and quiet night of sleep before a long day exploring the National Park.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The management requests a specific time that guests will be checking in. If one is driving from hundreds of miles away, that can be hard to predict, and imposes extra pressure. Once there, check-in was quick and easy. The property is well maintained and housekeeping comes daily to freshen up the room. Reliable lodging for a very reasonable price. Close to restaurants and grocery shopping.

The biggest compliment I can give is that I always stay here whenever I travel to Joshua Tree. I’ve been coming here for about a decade now and it’s always clean and comfortable. The motel is older and it’s showing its age and it’s off the main highway so there’s traffic noise but otherwise, this is the best deal for lodging in the vicinity.

It's a roadside motel. Its not fancy, but its perfect if you're on a budget. Super clean, which is HUGE for me. Staff was friendly. My only suggestion would be to bring some earplugs, or headphones because it gets loud being right off the hwy. Great food in walking distance. The Joshua Tree Saloon is a MUST! Hop in the car, and there are tons of cute shops, and vintage stores within a few miles on the same hwy. 10/10 would stay again.

This is an old-school motel with a convenient location near the NP entrance. The price was right and the room was reasonably clean and functional, if outdated. It was quiet enough for us, also. The pillows were bad - very thin and worn out - and the door lock was in need of repair. But we were otherwise happy and would stay again, especially at this price point.

Old furniture and facilities, smells, seems not very clean. noisy because of the highway not far away. Good thing is that it’s close to Joshua tree national park. It’s convenient for those who like to spend the whole day in the park, and come back to sleep after watching the stars.
