Very clean quiet, great people, and great views. I love Motor Inns like this. Unfortunately, most of them are no longer in good condition. This property was in excellent condition. Easy walk to the center of town and great views.

El Rancho Dolores Motel is my hub whenever I am in Twentynine Palms. Their rooms are clean and comfy, parking is right in front of the unit, and the amenities -- fridge, microwave, tv, wiFi -- always work. The swimming pool is great on a hot day and the north entrance to Joshua Tree National Park is minutes away. What really makes a stay at El Rancho Dolores especially comfy, however, is the staff. The owners plus Tulouna and team keep the grounds manicured, the rooms tidy, AND they are quick to help with a request -- extra towels, more coffee (there's a coffeemaker in every room), or early check-in. They help me feel at home in the high desert.

The desk clerk was really nice. She was very patient and helped an elderly person who looked like she came off the street. The place had other good features such as location and I was able to pull right up to my room to park.

Hotel is dated although refreshed and very clean. Parking right outside the door is convenient but noisy and hotel is right on a major thoroughfare so lots of traffic noise. The two people at checkin and out were very nice.
