The free breakfast in the adjacent cafe is nice: a hot cooked-to-order meal of eggs, hash browns, bacon or sausage and toast. It's a tiny place rebranded, apparently recently, from being a Budget Inn, as that is still the name on the wifi. It's small enough that you can park right in front of your room. It's a convenient stop on the road to Death Valley, right next to a drug store that you can shop at for last-minute supplies.

Cleanliness was a mixed bag. Our room had been cleaned, but when I went to get some ice I discovered the ice bucket looked like somebody had been sick in it; I was worried after I touched it. The facility is just really old. Rooms are pretty small. But the price was decent.

It was a stab in the dark where to stay but i opted for this stopover due to cost mainly 🤷‍♂️ On arrival i wasn't sure about it but the lady on reception was lovely & First impressions for me are most important,it smelt clean & fresh in there so fingers crossed🤔,the room was small but ideal for me being solo & it was clean & had all i needed for my stopover.

The only issue was the shower cubicle which could leak water onto the floor i think maybe the curtain was to short ?? But thats all ..

The food vouchers, the Cafe, my cozy room, the very comfortable bed and pillows, the mirror, my car nice and close to the room door, the working heater, ok to good wifi, the rain head (probably my favorite part) shower, and the excellent service at the check in service desk.

The hot water was over the top in heat and took awhile to cool down to the right temperature, but other then that things were good.

Great location. Rooms were clean and comfortable.

We booked a one night stay. We had an issue with the hot water not coming into the shower even after waiting almost 20 minutes. The hot water just didn’t arrive to our room. Our friends who stayed at the same location had no issue with the hot water for their morning showers.

Very good location in a small town. The rates are very fair, especially for California, which is the main reason I'm giving it 9/10 - otherwise it's basically a standard motel with small-ish room, but clean and comfortable. Breakfast at the café next door was pretty good, too.

Nothing given the rates - many motels offer bigger rooms, but they come with bigger price tags as well.

The room was big, clean and had everything even for a longer stay. The breakfast was also good, and included in the room price. Free parking on spot.

I guess you can't sleep during the summer with the AC on. We didn't need it just a bit to cool down the room before sleep.

Room, shower (loved the rain head) , bed , location, wifi was good , and overall how Everything is set up in the room .

Bathrooms need a drain or perhaps extra towels should be added in case water gets on the floor. And my pillow were sort comfy they just sank down to far but I managed to just combine the two so it was comfortable

The young lady at the front desk was exceptionally pleasant and helpful. Adequate accommodation for a one night stay.

The bed was uncomfortably soft. It was rather strange that breakfast was included, the food was, and yet we had to pay for coffee and tea. Breakfast does usually include a hot drink!

We had a great stay! The rooms are tidy, clean and comfortable with eveything you need inside. In particular, we would like to mention the kindness of our host that solved a serious problem we had with the reservation platform, allowing us to have the best experience anyway
