This totally hit the spot on a cross country road trip. Super easy check-in, friendly, helpful, and efficient staff and a very nicely remodeled motel. Cleanliness was top notch and the bedding quite comfortable. We highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Nothing wrong with the property but the area immediately around the hotel is deserted and rundown. I'll still keep staying at the Magnuson but thought I'd warn others.

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.
