There wasn’t any staff, the guy from the hotel next door checked me in, he was very nice. The website says there are three restaurants on site, there are none. The outside needs a re fresher. There is no shampoo or conditioner. The bed was hard but I like that, most people wouldn’t.

Best Bang for the Buck staying in Twentynine Palms

Haven't found a better deal than the Starlight Inn for our frequent trips to Joshua Tree NP. Have stayed many times before and the Starlight Inn continues to be the best deal for the price than any other place we've stayed at. We require only a clean and safe accommodation and the Starlight Inn fits the bill and is the best priced motel we've found which has us coming back again and again.

Good value motel. Easy to check in, easy to park, good location near the park entrance and grocery stores. My room was very clean but a little bit shabby - the wallpaper was peeling a bit, the amenity space looked to be under construction, etc. Still, good value for what I needed.

Clean, comfortable and convenient to spending our time in Joshua Tree Park. We appreciated the room’s mini kitchen for making simple meals. Unfortunately the walls are paper thin. The outdoor former “pool” area leaves much to be desired. It would have been nice to share outdoor facilities with the neighbour sister hotel next door.

Starlight Inn

Great for the price. Good location. Room had a minifridge and microwave. Seems it and the Oasis next door are in the midst of renovations. Check in was across the parking lot, in the Oasis. Only one guy on the frontdesk, not enough for the two hotels, and also fielding calls. Bit of a wait to check in. Carpet was moderately clean. Wallpaper looked new, but coming apart at the seams. The "Zen Garden" is a filled swiming pool with artificial grass over the dirt. Not a lot zen about that. The patio of the Oasis Inn was filled with beds and furniture. Apparently, Starlight guests can normally go there, but not the pool at the Oasis.

Road noise

Second stay in two weeks. Good price, and I'd stay again. Main difference is, last time my room was back away from CA-62, and it was quiet. This time, i was in 202, near the highway. Serious road noise, magnified by the 3-4 cm gap (yes, that big!) at the bottom of the door, due to a broken door sweep. The frame and door were a poor fit, as well. Without leaving the fan running on high, it was too loud to sleep. Toilet had a slow leak from the tank through the bowl, so constant noise from that, too. But the bathroom is far enough away the noise wasn't noticeable from bed. Bed was fine. Shower was fine. Small refrigerator and microwave. Small in room coffee maker. If a small weak cup is enough, you're fine. Otherwise, short drive to Burger King or longer (mile and a half) to Starbucks.

Hard Pass

We used a set of bedding we brought from home. The motel bedding was really old. The bed was clean though. There was still trash on the floor (see picture) that I came across plugging in my charger. This place has no front desk, you have to go to the hotel next door to check in/out or ask for anything. Do not ask for a washcloth or a face towel they don’t do that anymore. I went and bought my own, no biggie. They do not have enough body towels at any given time. They did not replace the bath mat towel that I brought to her either. Door was broken at the bottom (see picture). There something on the ceiling and stains on the lampshades and walls. It does come with a microwave and a mini fridge which was nice, a/c/heater worked just fine. Interacting with the Starlight staff was awful, but the Oasis next door was great, thank you Nadia!

Having basic necessities good. Maintenace around and plants was good. The room entry way doesn't have the best secured thresh hold to keep the critters from coming in. The place has no pest control to lay a bug barrier on entry points. I stayed till the next morning. I mentioned the bugs in the room. They sure weren't shocked nor had any concerns if I could have any allergies. Luckly, I don't have but I can't sleep comfortably knowing bugs be roaming the room. The next day I moved to the second floor. felt nice and comfortable. Hours go by up stairs ,just disappointment when using the bathroom. I look down all I see is a cricket moving to my feet. After I look under the bottom sink and see like 3 or more Crickets. All I got was a one hour later checkout.

Close to the national park and they quickly gave us extra towels after we asked them. The room was a little outdated but not bad. It was quite spacious, but unfortunately the walls were quite thin and we heard our neighbors.
