We booked this as a group of 2 families, and the staff were not ready to accommodate our request to provide 2 adjacent rooms. They later called us to check out instead of honoring the request.

Check in great . I had to ask for room to be cleaned maids never showed up and I ask for extra towels. Walked property in the morning for a morning walk and walkways sticky and filthy all over. My neighbor staying for construction in the area and their trucks loud and backed in and their exhaust was going right in air conditioning and they were loud as hell. Place needs a update.

There are many choices for motels in Ridgecrest so when we had to pack up our camping site at Red Rock Canyon State Park in a wind emergency and find a place to stay on short notice while sitting on the side of Hwy 14, we had to decide quickly based on reviews & price. If you're willing to pay over $200 per night, there are probably very reliable places to stay. For under $200 per night, this is probably your best option. The breakfast is so good that after 9am it becomes a public restaurant and the local seniors and others flock to it. The pool & spa are well maintained. In general, it was a very nice campus. The check-in clerk referred us to Albertaco's for a late night bite and he was spot on. Another place to check out is the Ven restaurant near HD. And don't forget the Red Rock Books, a gem in the desert.

for the price it was average. but it has a lot of competitors in the area. the pool was operational, but the heater didn't work so the water was freezing! But it does have its own sports bar and two restaurants.
