This is a perfect place to stay and get some rest in between hiking and exploring Twentynine Palms and Joshua Tree. It’s not a five star luxury resort, but it doesn’t claim to be. The staff were extremely friendly and it is centrally located to the Joshua Tree Visitors Center, Oasis of Mara and great hiking and camping spots. We also had a good time at The Far Out bar after a late dinner. We’ll be back.

Lukewarm water ran for maybe one minute. I checked out a day early and was charged for the full stay when the owner said they would refund the money. They didn’t

Furnishings in good condition. Bed too soft for me, but I never expect a decent mattress when I travel. Next to busy road. Get a unit in the back. No carpet which is a major plus. Bathroom dated, but functional. Overall, when I come to town, I'll stay here.
