Very clean and well kept. Front desk person was very abrupt, not quite rude, but beyond that it was a decent stay.

Clean and comfortable. The Little freezer section in the fridge is a real bonus, as well as the laundry. What more could you ask for at this price!

Disliked: Amenities
Entire property, including the room, was very clean. Room was comfortable however the furnishings were very dated. No elevator so dragging everything up the stairs was quite a task. Check in was easy and checkout was simply dropping the key into a box. Great location for Joshua Tree access. Good value for the price.

I checked in with my wife later than we thought we were going to check in. The front desk was helpful and called us to make sure we were on our way. There is a place outside to sit down and picnic and even have a BBQ
