if you need a place to lay your head down and catch some Z’s then this is an alright place. Other than that I wouldn’t ever stay here again. The beds are uncomfortable, the soaps are hard, the little thing of shampoo and conditioner looks off. On top of that the ‘free breakfast’ was completely disgusting. The eggs were so gross, cereal was stale, the only good thing in the breakfast was the bagels & the juice they have. Far better getting your own breakfast elsewhere.

I was traveling by motorcycle and I woke up in the morning to a flat rear tire due to a nail in the tire. The owner of the hotel offered to plug the tire for me, how very kind of him! There was a motorcycle shop just a few miles down the road so I opted to take it there for repair instead, but the hotel owner filled up my tire from his air compressor so I could make it to the motorcycle shop. Thank you!!

Above average value for the price.
Mostly nicely renovated older property on Main Street. Clean parking lot (unusual at the budget price) leads to a nice, clean, larger room with actual wall decor and crisp bedding. The towels were old and rough however. Inexplicably, my particular room had a bathroom door that looked terrible with smeared paint and a deteriorating mirror. The free breakfast, while not Hampton Inn quality, surprisingly had hot items, eggs, sausage and pancakes, again, unusual at the $68.00 rate that I paid in early December. This was my second stay and I will use them again when in Barstow.

No frills motel. We’ve stayed here a couple of times and it’s always good. The owners/operators are super nice, always willing to accommodate our needs. The price is right and bonus of sustainable breakfast is a plus. I highly recommend this place to travelers.

Staff would not let my wife take a single yogurt at breakfast for the road, my wife is a diabetic. We stayed at 10 hotels during our trip this is the only one that refused her a yogurt. Had to ask for a room coffee maker and the micro was missing the heating plate. The staff mentioned, stated he was the manager. I would like a apology from him for my wife.

The property turns out to be quite nice, clean, and having spacious room. Staffs are helpful. The hot breakfast has a variety of selections and better than I expected. The only con is the hotel seems to have thin walls, so you may receive lots of unwanted noise from upstairs and next door. Not recommended for people who have poor sleep patterns.

A pleasant stay at this underrated motel. Budget friendly as its name suggested. Super friendly owners. Clean. Comfortable bed. I have to say the shower is a surprising highlight. Never have experienced such high pressure before, in a good way though. It felt like the town's water tower is right next door. I will definitely consider it again for future trips.

Take a dip and don’t trip…
This is a nice place to stay and is definitely budget friendly. My only issue was the bed… while comfortable, it had our feet elevated and our heads, well, it was crooked.. I had to sleep with my head at the end of the bed in order to sleep with my head upright. Took a dip in the pool, very clean and enjoyable. Laundry on site too. Oh and ice isn’t free. That was another negative. Overall, I would stay there again, but only if my budget wouldn’t allow something more affordable. Office staff are amazing.
