Clean with a Fun Retro Vibe
Great location, clean and comfortable. Easy check in and out. Great and easy parking in our own garage attached to our room! Unfortunately, I wasn't there long enough to use the pool, which was beautiful. It had a very retro, fun vibe!

I have stayed at this motel many times. The motel has been beautifully remodeled and is well worth the price. The woman manager is very helpful, pleasant, and accommodating. One of the older rooms I once had in the back needs better remodeling.

Sucked dirty and very uncomfortable beds and the desk person wanted to argue/debate with me about something he ended up being wrong about. Would not recommend staying there especially for the wacky prices they have. No thank u please

Good Choice in Twentynine Palms
Service was good, the room was pretty clean, the pool was nice and the location was great for visiting Joshua Tree. We appreciated the $1 sodas in the lobby and lots of available ice. Our stay was pleasant.
