I really love the location and you cannot beat the price. It’s a nice size room very clean. The only thing is the pool is not heated and it’s the coldest poem I’ve ever been in my life.!!!!!! but it’s a really economical suitable place to stay. I do recommend it.

Very good for the budget minded traveler. I call this sleep and go--do not plan to lounge around. Bit noisy as located on a main thoroughfare. Checkin easy. Special shout out to the team as my wife left her laptop behind and they went beyond the call of duty to make a trip to the post office to have it shipped home.

The room was a good place to sleep after a day of hiking in the park with air conditioning that kept it a comfortable temperature. The pool was perfect for a quiet, cool dip when not hiking.

Such a terrific value! After a conference in a fancy Palm Springs hotel, High Desert Motel gave us some privacy, simplicity, and better reading light than any hotel we've been in lately. After a visit to the Walmart supermarket before we arrived, we had a fine supper and breakfast in the room using the fridge, microwave, and coffee maker, before a day of driving and hiking around Joshua Tree National Park. Thank you Larry for ensuring my hotels.com reservation was extended for one night, was on the first floor, andwas billed to the motel.

I chose this motel from other reviews stating "Very Good" and because of the low price. It was indeed, very good. Very simple, low cost and near west entrance of Joshua Tree National Monument. This motel met our expectations.
