Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover – This Place is a Hidden Gem!
Calling this place a gem would be an understatement—it’s a diamond mine! From the moment I made a late reservation around 10 PM, one of the owners made the process seamless. When I asked, “Where’s the music coming from?” he warmly invited me to their onsite eatery, “Kitchen Desert.” Open until 11 PM on a weekday, the team there was crafting cocktails I’d expect to find in a trendy downtown LA bar.
I went back for breakfast the next morning and… WOW! ABSOLUTELY THE BEST ESPRESSO IVE EVER HAD- I have decades of experience in the coffee bizz and a black coffee drinker and I couldn’t be more satisfied.
The property boasts modern, updated rooms and an inviting onsite eatery. The attention to detail is impressive—handmade soaps in the bathrooms, espresso martinis on the menu, and a focus on thoughtful hospitality that exceeded every expectation.
The room it self quaint, safe, modern, some rooms are double the size of the others… The bed was incredibly cozy, outfitted with well-known brands. I laid down and immediately fell asleep like a baby.
And let me tell you about the morning shower experience! Room 8 offers not only a generous shower head but also a breathtaking sunrise view right from the shower window—a moment I’ll never forget.
The pool was clean and used as refreshing cold plunge.
Balina, the housekeeper, was so friendly and accommodating, even allowing us a late checkout without hesitation.
One of the owners also shared exciting plans for the property’s future, and I’m genuinely eager to see this transformation unfold.
This isn’t just a motel—it’s becoming a beacon of hospitality in the high desert, and I can’t wait to return.
Cheers and thank you for an unforgettable stay!
