Pretty rundown

The room was clean but didn’t offer much. It was rundown pretty and really needs updating. The pool was cold and not the cleanest. One guy kept bothering me for stupid reason. He knocked on the door asking if I needed housecleaning. I reminded him that I just checked in about a half hour ago. I put up the Do Not Disturb sign, however, he knocks on the door repeatedly and gives me a QR code to a menu. He kept on trying to look into my room. I won’t stay there again unless I completely have to. However, the housekeeper was awesome and very positive.

Will not return!

The cute exterior pictures are deceiving. Room 105 needs major updates. There were holes in an upholstered chair and bedspread, stained pillows and dripping faucet in the bathtub. I slept in our car !!!

This review is for room 128 kitchenette. Another review previous to our stay sums it well. Rm 128 is a small single wide trailer. It reminded me of the trailer we had hauled off our family's camp lot as it was no longer suitable for use. Very dusty (hard on sinus). Food debris around kitchen. Furniture worn out or broken. Internet overloaded and cable TV inoperative. Unfortunately for us, accommodation in town was full and we stayed 2 nights as we wished to remain in town. In hindsight, I would now have left town even if no refund.

This is an older property. The owners have made a very good attempt to improve the looks and overall running of the property... Nothing was wrong... Just remember that this is a level ot stay that was available in the mid-1970's... It's got it's own charm...

Somethings on the site need to be updated!

It was a normal motel, having a grocery store and convenient store right across the street are nice, and take advantage of the free in town public transportation which makes getting to the other places in the town convenient, the only things i didn't like was they have on there page convenience like deli, laundry facilities and a couple more things they do not have, and i really needed the laundry facilities.

A little rough around the edges but nicely renovated. Where it's important. The floors are new. The beds are brand new and super comfortable. The water is ridiculously hot in the bathroom. The tub may be a little bit up and the walls may have patches a little bit, but it's clean and very comfortable and a great place if you need a spot in Ajo.

The motel was old. The bedding was old. But the room was clean, and it was a place to sleep. That's what I expected, and I appreciate it. It was quiet. The shower was good and the towels were nice and absorbent.

Caution

There was no internet, so no record of our reservation. They did not accept credit cards. The mattress in our room was wrapped in plastic which made crackling noises whenever we moved. It was a, generally, a drab experience.
