Nice to be able to park right in front of your room. Blythe is in the middle of nowhere so it made a quiet place to overnight on our road trip to Phoenix

The only reason the place doesn't get 5 stars is because the A/C unit in the room was really noisy. When the compressor turned off it made a huge clunking noise that woke me up a couple of times. If they can fix that, the stay would be perfect.

The rooms are beautiful and we’re clean. I was able to check in earlier than expected. Staff was very pleasant and accommodating, the only thing that was a concern was there wasn’t many options to dine near the hotel.

Room was wonderful and single story. Amenities were not there - no breakfast or pool. Hotel next door was blasting music and area didn’t feel safe. Multiple vehicles on blocks in parking lot.

The room was very outdated and smelled damp. There were blood stains on the mattress pad so did sleep under the sheets. The pool was not filled.

First time staying here a few weeks ago was great. This time, however, was a bit disappointing. The room itself was fine. I could not get the TV to work at all (not a big deal as I was pretty much going to just sleep anyway), but the big negative was the numerous facial shavings around the sink and in the amenities tray. Just not a good job of cleaning. Room was quiet, bed was comfortable, and check in was as easy as it can possibly be. I’m going to write this visit off as a bad day and let it go. I’d still stay here again when passing through.

I stopped only to spend the night on my way to L.A. without spending a bunch. I was very pleased. One previous review indicated that she didn’t feel safe off the property, and I get that. Lots of old and vacant buildings. However, this motel is worthy of a try. It was quiet, clean, and though older, still had what I needed. The check in was easy and the clerk very friendly and accommodating. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Unfortunately the room I had was very dated. Cigarette burns on the counter in bathroom. Drywall repairs that hadn’t been finished. Missing tile in the floor. Not a good area to walk the dog. No designated pet relief area. The pool and spa were drained. No mention of this in the reservation. For the price of the room this was very disappointing. The bed was nice and comfortable w a new mattress. The fridge was quiet. (But not turned on when I arrived so took a long time to cool). I would find a different place to stay next time thru town.

Great experience
Pretty nice place. I was traveling with all my belongings in my car so I really loved being able to park right in front of my door. Check in was very easy and the free cold water bottle and snack pack were a very nice touch after so many days on the road. The bedding was nice and the heat worked well so no complaints. There was a dead earwig in the bathroom when I arrived but at least it was dead.
