Good value motel. Easy to check in, easy to park, good location near the park entrance and grocery stores. My room was very clean but a little bit shabby - the wallpaper was peeling a bit, the amenity space looked to be under construction, etc. Still, good value for what I needed.

Adequate. Near Jashua Tree.

TV did not work, had to replace the batteries. Local was good. This hotel and Oasis are owned by the same group. They had 2 young kids working both properties.

This was one of the worst hotel I have ever stayed in my entire life. Dirty, noisy, crickets running all over. Did not get one minute of sleep Our money needs to be refunded

pool was filled in with dirt. Tv didn't work. Tried to charge me for another night. I will never stay here again.

The parking was limited. The lobby is in another adjacent hotel. The fridge was loud and noisy. The exhaust fan was very noisy. I stayed for 8 nights and only received room service once when I asked and said I would tip. I needed fresh towels and that is what was brought. I ran out of sundries and bought my own.

Book with Motel 6 instead!

I’ve never had to leave a negative review like this one. Hotel site-manager allowed the booking, then was shouting loudly and completely rude upon check-in. I told him I didn’t know what his problem was but that this was clearly not the hotel for me. When I returned to front office for a copy of the receipt no one was there. Walking past the housekeeper I inquired about management and she said he had left for the day. !! So, needless to say I never got my money returned and he probably had a steak dinner that night. Unprofessional and bad for business! I feel embarrassed for his boss or the hotel owners because he is not a good representative of that establishment, unfortunately.

owners not interested in customer satisfaction

Owners not interested in customer satisfaction, I gave them the opportunity for at least a partial refund due to the fact there was false advertising on the description, they advertised free breakfast and there was none, it was $6 each, everything else was so/so won't be back
Brent, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Road noise

Second stay in two weeks. Good price, and I'd stay again. Main difference is, last time my room was back away from CA-62, and it was quiet. This time, i was in 202, near the highway. Serious road noise, magnified by the 3-4 cm gap (yes, that big!) at the bottom of the door, due to a broken door sweep. The frame and door were a poor fit, as well. Without leaving the fan running on high, it was too loud to sleep. Toilet had a slow leak from the tank through the bowl, so constant noise from that, too. But the bathroom is far enough away the noise wasn't noticeable from bed. Bed was fine. Shower was fine. Small refrigerator and microwave. Small in room coffee maker. If a small weak cup is enough, you're fine. Otherwise, short drive to Burger King or longer (mile and a half) to Starbucks.
Todd, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

If you get the room through Travelocity or any other site you don't get to use any of the amenities. Because you didn't go through the motel. They don't help you by correcting the problem that you didn't know about. They tell you that there is nothing they can do. And this was from management. so you just have a room and they charge you for everything as extra. All the way down to house keeping. This was the first time I have ever experienced this in my life. The check in guy was the best part of being there. He was very friendly and nice. After that the hotel sucked. They didn't even try to help . Don't stay there.

Best Bang for the Buck staying in Twentynine Palms

Haven't found a better deal than the Starlight Inn for our frequent trips to Joshua Tree NP. Have stayed many times before and the Starlight Inn continues to be the best deal for the price than any other place we've stayed at. We require only a clean and safe accommodation and the Starlight Inn fits the bill and is the best priced motel we've found which has us coming back again and again.

Good and bad

Everything was great except the pillows. Bring your own or be okay with mildew smell all night. Clean your remote with alcohol, it's gross too. They do have full size refrigerators and the hotel is located next to a grocery store which is super convenient.

Hard Pass

We used a set of bedding we brought from home. The motel bedding was really old. The bed was clean though. There was still trash on the floor (see picture) that I came across plugging in my charger. This place has no front desk, you have to go to the hotel next door to check in/out or ask for anything. Do not ask for a washcloth or a face towel they don’t do that anymore. I went and bought my own, no biggie. They do not have enough body towels at any given time. They did not replace the bath mat towel that I brought to her either. Door was broken at the bottom (see picture). There something on the ceiling and stains on the lampshades and walls. It does come with a microwave and a mini fridge which was nice, a/c/heater worked just fine. Interacting with the Starlight staff was awful, but the Oasis next door was great, thank you Nadia!

Got placed to a very loud and disturbing neighbor, but there were able to move me to a new room with minimal fuss.

Value price, some issues.

Third time here in two months. It's been cheaper than Motel 6. Generallt quieter, too, unless you get a room near the highway. Room was fine. Two issues with my stay. First i discovered was no soap. They had a tube of shampoo and a tube of lotion, but no soap. The other issue, i didn't discover until later: The minifridge wasn't working. The eyedrops that i need to keep cool were room temperature. It was plugged in, and the internal knob was turned to coldest, but it did not cool. Well, three issues, i guess: the toilet was only semi-functional. Didn't flush properly. At the price point, i'll give them another try, but may eventually just cough up more to stay somewhere more reliable.
