5 minutes from visitor center at Anza Borrego State Park and close to restaurants and shopping. Beautiful view of the stars from our room. A unique property like the set of a western movie. The room was large and nicely furnished. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We'll be back.

Utterly charming hotel located in a quiet corner of Borrego Springs. The desk clerk was friendly & my room couldn't have been cleaner. I gasped when I saw the Capt Beefheart poster on the wall. I'm a huge fan of his to a legendary degree. I felt right at home. The room was very spacious and I had great views of mountains in the distance. Everything worked well and was in order. Now for the reason I gate it 4 instead of 5 stars - the bed! The bed has been loved and sags in the middle. I had a hard time sleeping due to the discomfort. Since it's kinda the most important piece of furniture in a hotel room, my rating came down a star. If it had been comfortable, this would have been a 5 star stay, all the way. Still, I'd give it another try. Maybe it was just that one bed?

The hotel has a Wild West facade on the front the the hotels. We arrived late so never interacted with a person but they are very responsive via text so not a problem. The hotel is old but for the most part clean. Simple accommodations as expected in an RV park. Decent stop but price seems high for the facilities.

Small disappointment, still recommend

I specifically reserved a balcony room to set up my telescope. The only balcony option was a king so I paid extra to also have a rollaway bed. We arrived after hours to find our room on the first floor. I was told the issue must have been through hotels.com then realized on the map to the room the balcony room was crossed out and changed to the first floor. Understandably someone probably didn’t want to haul the rollaway upstairs. I could have booked two queens for the same price as the king and saved the rollaway fee. :-( The room was very nice with a small patio, mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker and refillable shampoo, conditioner and soap dispensers for eco friendliness. The room also had pool towels, nice touch! I like this hotel, have here before and will stay again knowing to go alone for a balcony or book two queens. It appeared only three rooms were occupied in our building so unsure why a couple was placed in the room above us; it would have been appreciated to have the room above empty given the available rooms and not receiving what was purchased. And I didn’t receive whatever gift card was offered in the promotion. The motif is a cute old western town, very fun! They also have airstreams which I enjoyed staying in last year. Great night sky viewing! A definite recommend, just clarify your goal to the staff, if they had told me they couldn’t take a rollaway upstairs I would have booked the two queens and left the telescope home.
The original room was the reserved balcony room, crossed out, it was obviously changed to the first floor
