This Motel is our "Go to" stop-over, when we travel from the San Francisco Bay Area, on our way to Spring Training in Phoenix ... (which includes a side-trip through nearby Joshua Trees National Forest, which is definitely worth a visit). The rooms are clean, large and there is an excellent diner (John's Place) within walking distance (just north of the motel) that serves reasonably priced, hearty breakfasts. Each of the rooms that we have stayed in has had a unique decorative motif. (Check out the website for some of the room-offerings 😊) The staff is extremely nice. And, although some of the room-features are a little old, it did not detract from the enjoyment of our stay.

The bed was very comfortable. Everything was clean and the front desk manager was very polite and very helpful. I was very happy. They had bottled water for one dollar a bottle and a bottle of Gatorade for only two dollars.

The only problem I had was with the TV settings Have the appropriate remote control to correct them. However, the front desk manager was helpful in getting me the remote control and giving me more specific directions. It would’ve been nice. Had it been set up before my arrival instead of having to troubleshoot it very late at night when I was tired.

Proximity to Pappy n Harriet's 🎶 Spacious king kitchenette Modern upgrades throughout Especially appreciated the clean vinyl flooring (even Bateman might go barefoot) 😅 Family-owned, friendly, fun front desk

Well, only because you asked - and I wouldn't call it a negative review - the one missing hanging blind panel thingy at the kitchen window. (Not that I was worried about pervs at all. In fact, it was a very private corner room) Perhaps the shower door got slightly off track, but that's way better than a clingy shower curtain any day. Oh, and another tiny shower detail might be that there was no soap dish. Gasp! Ha¡!

Large, clean and really pretty room with sliding door to desert garden area. Owner was SUPER nice and helpful - resourceful and upbeat during a wind event power outage. I felt cared for and safe there. Easy drive to Joshua Tree National Park west entrance and close to all shopping/dining/gas conveniences.

Family road trip through California NPs and coast. 18 days / 9 different places to stay overnight. This one was first. Older equipment but super clean. All good. Close to Joshua Tree NP. We would recommend it. Only one thing we wish to have here: Table and chairs to sit as family for breakfast or games. Definitely nice place to stay.

I liked the room. It was very clean. The bed was firm and comfortable. The way I like it.

I felt that the shower floor was a bit slippery and it made taking a shower a bit of a worry. There wasn't any handles to grip to help with keeping my balance as I have a bad knee currently.

I was pleased with the courtyard outside my room. I was happy to have a small refrigerator and microwave because of my extended stay. The bathroom was very large and nicely tiled.

The television cable would only allow 1/2 hour of viewing before it would shut down and reboot. The remote control was wearing out and therefore the tuning was laborious.

Very good location. Huge, quiet and clean room, Comfy bed, perfect shower, hot water plus good water pressure. Nice inner rose garden. Big parking lot. 20 minutes to the West entrance of the Joshua Tree NP. An extra bonus: very friendly owner and receptionist. Perfect place for 2-3 nights for exploring JTNP.

Nothing.

The Rooms are HUGE! There was plenty of space to lay out our suitcases and all the other gear we were travelling with. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. Although they don't provide breakfast, there was a good, inexpensive cafe only 800 feet north of the motel ... (easy walking distance) ... that had a great Route 66 vibe!

They were responsive and came to my room when we needed our television setup. They also were responsive when we asked for cups and they had some available in the office. The water in the hot tub was hot, clean and the jets were working.

We had some trouble with the front door as it didn't seem secure and could be pushed open from the outside, though we locked it on the way out. There were a few chairs strewn on the floor in the garden area. In all fairness this was not addressed with the staff.
