Best place in Ajo, AZ.

Nice family owned motel, simple and very clean, perfectly placed in front of a convenience, food and gas station and also a very complete supermarket. Great place to stay, specially if visiting, hiking or trekking at Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge (CPNWR).

Convenient and the price was right for a late arrival and early departure. Front office clerk was very helpful to us. Room was clean but no A/C on upon arrival so had to wait for room to cool down before we could go to bed. Property could be more appealing with some upgrades, larger bath towels, and figuring out our to prepare rooms for cooling prior to arrival.
