Very quaint, clean Motel.
roger, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice, comfy place

Nice place to stay, nicely styled basic motel. By far the best cable-TV system I've seen in a hotel. Suggest printing a listing of the channels and numbers. Never tried pool; found out too late about special access code. We stayed two nights and maid never came to clean or make bed. There was no "maid service" door flag. Would recommend the place to others.

Jacqueline, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I always prefer the Mom and Pop style Motels. Pool was a nice bonus.
Garry, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is cute! Compared to the larger chain motels in the area, I would choose to stay at El Rancho Delores every time due to the vibes. For such an affordable stay, the quality of the motel was very impressive!
Rachel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was clean, bed and pillows were comfy. Wonderful value with a great price!!

SHAN, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

clean nice room. Excellent pool. We liked the car port ... other than the surface was sandy. Easy to walk to a couple of dinner options ... but don't wait too late as things close early.
Phillip, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was quiet and the location was close to the north entrance of the park.
Karen, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was surprising how big the kitchen area was, including a 3/4 size fridge, a stove, a microwave and even a 2-seat eating area, in the room! Parking in front of the door, and the entire staff was very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay there again.
Tony, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Unusually large pool with nice areas to sit outside. Room has a small kitchen area in another room with everything needed.

Awesome stay

It was clean and cozy. Really close to the National Park. And the price is affordable.
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel is dated although refreshed and very clean. Parking right outside the door is convenient but noisy and hotel is right on a major thoroughfare so lots of traffic noise. The two people at checkin and out were very nice.
Susan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Close to the park!

Received a warm welcome from our host. Our room was great. Perfect for the 3 of us! Three double beds. Room was clean. Kitchenette was great for quick breakfast in the mornings and a refrigerator for our food. Great for going to Joshua treeNP
Barbara, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Older but good fir a single night

Older property. Clean and OK. Beds are noisy due to a metal frame that oil pans as you sit on it or move. The staff was friendly and quick. Well located and easy to find.
