El Rancho Dolores Motel

Honestly good hotel for the price. Very conveniently placed location. Decent amenities, showers were hot with decent water pressure. Good ice machine, amazing parking! Literally right in front of your room! Drawbacks: somewhat thin walls, can head next door neighbors at times when they close their doors and the coffee sucks! Otherwise good place for the price! Would definitely come back if I’m in the area.

Older motel but clean and tidy. Nice front desk. Bed was comfortable. Great price and location. Plenty of parking. Fridge was loud so I unplugged it. Im going again in Oct, but have to check to see if I can bring my dog this time. Gee whiz I have to write 200 word minimum :-)

Positive: It is a basic motor hotel, but it had everything I wanted: a comfortable king size bed, a bathroom, and a desk for some work I had to do It also has a coffee maker, microwave and refrigerator. There is a stove with a few pans. Negative: There is a stove with a few pans. It could use more cooking supplies and paper towels. The kitchen sink did not have hot water.

Great place to stay! The location is perfect, our room was clean and in good shape, and the price was very reasonable. The kitchen has dishes, microwave, fridge and a full range (although I didn’t try cooking with it). I liked it had hard floors instead of carpet, plenty of storage, and also a full sized desk. The only downside is that we could hear some noise from the road, but there isn’t much traffic at night, so it wasn’t an issue for us. I would definitely stay here again.

It's not the Hilton so if that's the expectation you'll be disappointed. For the price and what it is, a roadside motel, it's a great place to stay if going to Joshua Tree.
