We had a great stay—everything we needed. For the price we paid, it was an excellent value. The host was extremely warm and welcoming to our family and children, and we really appreciate it. The location is perfect, the room is spacious, and the amenities are good. All around, a great experience and highly recommended.

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 😊

Second time staying here. This is a no frills motel however which has a microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker and a lot of charm and care put into it. Great budget option for the area which has become increasingly expensive over the last decade It’s a funky desert roadside motel which I personally love to find and just like budget options are dwindling in the area, so are places that are unique with charm. Room was pretty clean and comfortable for my son and I. Would absolutely stay again!

I can me in the evening after office hours. And to my surprise, my key was ready and room. I would have appreciated a table and a couple of chairs. Even folding ones will do.

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.
