    We were surprised to be very near to a railroad. It ran all night long. We were very tired from our trip but the train was pretty silent so we slept well. The swimming pool was filled with young children so there was a lot of noise and splashing (the pool surround was small so there was no room to get away from the children. The parents didn't seem to try to keep the yelling down. We like children but these kids were out of hand.

    Breakfast was great and the room was clean. They have a fenced-in dog exercise area and the clerk at the front desk when we arrived was VERY helpful with recommendations for eating places..

    On the first the night the bath didn’t drain but was solved immediately, the light went out over the sink for a few days so was pretty hard to see things for a night or two but that was resolved, the washing machine in the hotel left my clothes soaked, the dryer wasn’t able to dry them, I’d probably use the Laundromat down the road next time. On the weekends there was a lady at the reception and she never had quarters available but during the week when the other staff were around they always had change available. I’m pretty sure she was just being too lazy to count them out, if you need quarters go doing the week

    Microwave in the room, room was cleaned frequently, wifi was never an issue, breakfast was decent, if I ever had to go to Barstow again, I’d stay here

    It's situated in a somewhat dangerous location in that getting in and out of their driveway can be tricky and not the quietest at times but they do give you free earplugs.

    It was definitely clean and comfortable. If I had to I would stay there again.

    The bathroom was a little dated. And there was only a table on one side of the bed so I didn’t have anywhere to put my stuff on the side I slept on but worth not having a table to make the little couch fit better.

    The staff was friendly! The room was pretty big. Liked that it had the couch to sit on. Plenty of counter space.

    Nothing. Would stay here again.

    Have stayed here before a couple of times. Good stopover location when driving from California to Las Vegas, We like the fact this is a traditional motel, in that you can park outside your room, and staff honoured a request for a downstairs room. Rooms are nice. A good size with usual facilities - microwave, large television with plenty of channels, coffee maker etc. Staff efficient and friendly. Good breakfast.

    The room I got was literally all the way in the back by the trailer homes and many locals on bicycles are constantly up and down the parking lot. The beds are not Queen size.

    I stayed here on 1-20-2024.They had a lot of parking and cameras. The Continental breakfast was good.

    The trains run directly across the street from the hotel, nothing the hotel can do about that 😉

    Upon arrival we were greeted by the front desk employee who was very courteous and friendly, put us up in a nice room and explained breakfast hours for the next morning., the breakfast was the best I’ve seen at any hotel, plenty of choices and super clean, you knew immediately that the hostess really cared about the service she provided!

    If you need silence to sleep this isn't for you, trains go by all night. Breakfast was good but all plastic cutlery and plates, it's a pity.
