Nice budget friendly little motel. Convenience store right next door with all kinds of stuff. Restaurant just down the street. The check in was quick. Room is clean and is as expected. Hot day. AC worked great!

the property was a bit rundown, but the price was right, it was clean, and I felt safe so, all things considered, i'd stay in it again rather than pay double for a bed and shower for less than a 10 hour stay.

I just needed a basic air-conditioned room to spend the night on a longer trip. This is an older place. It was clean and the service was pleasant. It had the lowest rates in town, so it met my needs.

I was told that my total out the door price was going to be $79.20 and I was charged $90. I was also told it was for my dog even though the property says it is "dog friendly". I assumed it would be like a motel 6 and if it is dog friendly there would be no additional charges. The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful and informative but I won't stay there again because of the extra charge for my esa dog.

Horrible cigarette smell
The room they put me in was supposed to be a non smoking room. The smell of cigarettes was absolutely disgusting. They told me the smell was because of new paint. I guess they think it's amusing to make fun of guests. I checked out after being in the room five hours, because I started to cough from the smell. I would recommend the motel 6 one mile away, it was really clean, and quiet.

Don’t stay here!
We were disappointed that there was no coffee in the room. Also the owner was like a gestapo about getting ice from the machine. It was noisy and the a/c was not effective.

Check-in required longer because it took time to the owner to find my reservation. I found a couple of clover mites in the bed (see photo). These are harmless tiny bugs that when are crashed leave a red streak, but to me they mean that the sheets were not properly washed and sanitised. There were other tiny bugs that I could not identify. The masterpiece of course were the 4 bed bugs that I killed (see photo of one crawling on the wall next to the head bed). Luckily, I had a strong DEET bug repellant, so I sprayed the sheets and the area of the wall next to the bed, so I had no other unpleasant encounters during the night. Another bug, I assume harmless, crawled out of one of the pillow cases when I carefully examined all of the pillows.
Clover mite
Bed bug. Typical shape and size like an apple seed.

They had the office lock you had to stand in 110 degree heat to check in. They didn't speak English so you hoped they didn't screwed you on your credit card. The room was 1950's. No light bulbs in the lamps. Dump!

Rest and Pizza in Needles, CA
Very comfortable stay... The only thing that was missing was the coffee maker and coffee packets. But microwave was there. I had my own supplies so it wasn't a problem..There is freeway noise but the price and value was excellent. With the AC on you cant hear the freeway anyhow...The pizza place across the street is great!

Friendly staff
There was a couple dirty spots on the wall that was missed and the comforter had something on it on the inside . I would have never noticed but I lost my ID and tore the bed up. The staff was extremely helpful caring customer service was great, staff was friendly . I would have given a perfect score except the cleanliness needed a few improvements

It is just fine for a night in Needles.
This hotel is fine. It is an old property, but the room we were given was clean and taken care of. For the price, it was actually much better than anticipated given some of the reviews. The people that run it are very professional and nice.
