It was surprising how big the kitchen area was, including a 3/4 size fridge, a stove, a microwave and even a 2-seat eating area, in the room! Parking in front of the door, and the entire staff was very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay there again.

This place is cute! Compared to the larger chain motels in the area, I would choose to stay at El Rancho Delores every time due to the vibes. For such an affordable stay, the quality of the motel was very impressive!

Clean rooms. We enjoyed the family suite option with three beds and a small kitchen. The pool is clean, beautiful and nice and cool. The manager was very accommodating. We had to stay in town after check out because of an online work meeting and he let us stay so our kids could play in the pool while we waited. He gave us a place to change afterward. The location is just down the street from the entrance to Joshua tree National Park for easy park entrance. Highly recommend.
