"Situated right off the 66 on Barstow's main drag, the motel is conveniently positioned among similar offerings. Unfortunately we were allocated a gloomy room that faced a wall in an alleyway which wasn't great but we were just glad to get some sleep. The room was adequate and clean enough. The owner made fresh eggs to order for breakfast and this was very much appreciated. If you get any room it might be better than ours but otherwise a satisfactory stay."
