Above avg room
Stay was nice. It's not a 5 star room but if you need a nice, clean room with a decent price that's very close to West entrance of Joshua Tree, then this is a good option

Not recommended
This place is very old and in need of updates. The front desk is a joke. The smoking outside our room was terrible with a cigarette butt can mounted the the stairwell it was terrible. Not a recommendation from me.

They nailed all the important points
The location was literally 1 mile from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. We had a long trailer and they only had 1 space to park it. So you may want to check with the manager before booking. We were able to walk to Thai restaurant nearby. The Indian restaurant was full of people who had been waiting an hour for their food. The manager was great. Hello helped us park our truck and trailer. He said he would join us for the SpaceX launch at 10. He didn't, but the launch was spectacular in the western sky. The room was enormous for a motel, our stay was quiet, the water pressure was amazing and the bed was super comfortable. They nailed the most important points. Highly recommended

6/10 Good

Funky, but seemed clean
When we walked into the room, we were..... I don't know how to desribe it. It was the worst decorated room I've ever seen. The picture does not do it justice. The "art" on the wall was a print of a British hunting scene with no glass and a wavy mat. The walls not only didn't match, they didn't coordinate. The curtains and bedspread didn't match anything. The bed was comfortable, though, and, although the motel is on a main highway we didn't hear auto noises over the noise of the AC, which we kept on all night. The bathroom seemed clean and there were no bugs. I just can't get past the incredibly bad decor. I wasn't terribly surprised when the credit card bill came back as a "Motel 6".

Very clean motel
The rooms could use a little updating but was one of the cleanest places I’ve stayed at. It is a Motel so I wasn’t expecting 4 or 5 stars, but it did exceed my expectations for the price. Bonus: it was close to Joshua Tree entrance.

I ran out of toilet paper. Should have been in the room. I had no bath towels for a number of hours. The water was so hot I could hardly take a shower. NO cooler water available. Otherwise I was fine with the room. It was large and had nice colors, and was clean. Imwould stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

The place was conviniently located close to the entrance of joshua tree. There are plenty of restaurants and shops near by as well. In the heart of the little area. Room was decent. Took a little to cool down. The carpet made it feel a bit warmer, but after a while to room got to a good sleepable temp. Pillows were flat sadly, but we made it work by putting the extra blanket under as a cushion. Check in was nice and easy.

2/10 Poor

It is conveniently located near the Joshua Tree National Park. The pool is very clean. Our king room had 2 tiny pillows, smelled of smoke and the bathroom was dirty with urine stains.
