The room was very clean & I loved the huge bed! The gentleman who checked me in was very kind & shared some tips for my first night. His recommendations were great! Also, for the price, this cute & colorful motel is a great option!!
Love this place. Little gem in the desert. This is our 3rd year staying here for the landers orchid festival. It’s close to many great places to eat, farmers markets and local attractions. We will be back next year 😊
Memorable, unique place. I was charmed by the individual cabins (with small separate dining area, even), colorful paint, and decor. The owner likes to talk philosophy. Very reasonable rates. Looking forward to returning here.

No frills motel in a great location. Would stay again if passing through.
Very good value for money. Overnight stop on a roadtrip and the place is perfect for that. Comfortable and sizeable room with mini kitchen, good bed and clean bathroom.
The location is gorgeous, and the staff were phenomenal. I got in past checkin hours, but Nick had left me a key to get settled in and I managed to properly checkin with him in the morning. There were new towels available every morning. The loudest thing out here is the 62 highway next to the motel, but even that is still quite quiet. Parking was easily accessible right in front of the cabin, however I didn’t get a chance to use that amenity. The bus stops were all accessible for me on foot, they just required walking through some sand and neighborhoods.
Fantastic place, would come back.
This is a very nice older motel at a great price . It has colorful individual huts and mine was very clean. It's a bit awkward to park a motorcycle but he says we can park in the gated flat area where the pool used to be. The owner is very nice and helpful. I liked staying here.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room had a little dirt in a few of the corners, I couldn't get connected to their internet and the day after check in I had no hot water. I did get an immediate room change, but that room had heat that lasted only 1 minute then it went cold. I went to the office to discuss a solution, and the clerk/manager thought it better to cut me off and tell me to leave. This clerk got loud and overbearing and frankly out right rude. So I went back to the room to pack and make a reservation at another place. After returning the 2nd key, I thought I had left something in the 1st room and the clerk/manager wouldn't let me go back and check. I had to 'shame' him into letting go check. The guy had been more than friendly in my 2 previous visits but this time he was rude and uninterested in more than 2 problems. After 2 "you gotta go".
Warm, friendly, helpful proprietor and clean, comfortable and charming cabin, such a reasonable price. Would stay again. Comfy bed, great air con, huge fridge freezer, microwave, coffee filter machine, great shower. 2 mugs provided - need to bring own bowls/plates/cutlery. Supermarket 1min drive away. Porch with bench, on hill, so great view of sunset. A bit tired but adds to charm and didn’t affect stay in any way.
Very quiet and clean private bungalow great service and friendly staff

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
I’d have to say the interesting experience thing in your in it’s got unique potential and the most fantastic sunrise view. I’ve seen in a very very long time right from your front porch and night sky right down the block just need somebody in the front office. Who knows how to smile.
