Best Western Colorado River Inn — Hotel in Needles

In a realm where the relentless sands of time mesh with the sprawling wastelands of Needles, there exists an enclave of comfort and luxury, a bastion against the encroaching desolation: the Best Western Colorado River Inn. It rises, not just as a structure, but as a symbol of hope and solace in a town ensnared by whispered tales and creeping shadows.

As I approached its gates, the very air around the inn seemed charged with an otherworldly glow, a stark foil to the grim hues of the desert and the labyrinthine alleyways of Needles. Beyond its welcoming threshold, the spectacle of an enchanted garden unfurled—a realm where time seemed to halt, where every leaf shimmered with dew and every blossom murmured tales from epochs gone by. Here, in this verdant sanctuary, even stalwart guardians canines like Rollo could find a moment's respite, basking in the gentle embrace of nature's lullaby.

But the true marvel lay within. My chamber, a testament to artistry and magic interwoven, beckoned. Crafted for those who've known the rigors of the road, it held wonders aplenty. A gleaming basin, its hot waters infused with the essence of ancient springs, promised to wash away both grime and memories. An alabaster chest, imbued with spells of preservation, stood vigil over my provisions. Nearby, a series of intricate devices—gifts from master artificers—lay ready to transmute raw ingredients into warm sustenance or conjure brews reminiscent of dawn's first light.

Dominating the room was a bed that might've been the handiwork of celestial beings. Dressed in fabrics that whispered of moonlit nights and ethereal dreams, it cradled its occupants in a realm where weariness was but a distant echo. And for Rollo, he found comfort sleeping soundly beside the bed, where dreams of heroic deeds and vast plains awaited.

With the heralding of a new day, the inn outdid itself. A grand banquet, rivaling the feasts of legendary courts, spread out. It was a gastronomic odyssey, each dish a masterpiece, a symphony of flavors that danced upon the palate and lingered in memory.

Yet, beyond these tangible luxuries, the inn's soul radiated an aura of peace, an ineffable quality that seemed to weave a protective spell around its guests, shielding them from the outside chaos. Its walls whispered tales of hope, its floors echoed with the laughter of countless travelers, and its very foundation promised sanctuary.

To every weary soul navigating the enigmatic terrains of Needles: The Best Western Colorado River Inn is more than an inn; it's an experience, an odyssey in comfort and luxury. Let it stand as a beacon, reminding all that even in places shadowed by mystery and challenge, havens of unparalleled splendor endure. Seek it out, and let its magic rejuvenate and inspire you for the sagas yet to be penned....

We stayed at this location for one night on 8/26/23. Check in was perfect. We got in just before the 3pm check in time and got into our room with no problems. The gentleman who checked us in was awesome. I am terrible about getting names but hopefully someone who knows reads this and sees the date so he can be told that he is awesome. He was super friendly, very polite and got everything done quickly.

Our room was clean. Even the menus and other informational materials they leave in the room were obviously freshly cleaned. The cleaning crew here, that cleaned room 203, takes their job seriously. Awesome job! The bed was comfy and the air conditioner worked great. I love that the air was left on to cool the room prior to our arrival. It was a brisk 117° when we arrived, so the cool but not freezing room was perfect. The hotel is located by train tracks but we did not hear any noise. I sleep like a log but my husband will wake up for a mouse fart in the other room. He says he didn't hear any outside noise.

Breakfast was awesome. You get a voucher to go next door for breakfast and if you are lucky, there is a lady named Monday working. She is amazing! I wish i could have taken her with me and had her for every restaurant experience i have going forward. She was so on top of things. She made sure everyone got exactly what they were looking for and also made sure all of the items were replenished before they ran out. Fantasic attitude. Even my husband said to be sure and leave a good review for that lady because she was awesome.

Overall we had a great experience. With all of the polite and respectful attitudes, we couldn't believe we were at a hotel in california. We will definitely...

Avoid at all costs. Our visit was less than standard to say the least. After a brief night I woke to bugs on and in everything, we had disclosed we had 2 dogs several times and they have attempted to charge us 3 different amounts in $250, $200, and $150 in addition to our stay fee. Tyler the front desk guy is more than willing to falsely inform others that the dogs were not discussed and a manager who although was supposed to get back to us in 24 hours has still not reached back to us in a professional manner. We were afforded $10 off our stay do to the bugs and after talking over the phone they tried to upcharge the original agreement for the pets by $10. The front desk girl is awesome but her coworkers are very unprofessional. I've informed them that we are escalating to dispute with the bank, the manager is supposed to reach out to us (again). I'll be dropping this review on yelp as well. Don't let this roadside inn stick their fingers in you pocket and go somewhere else. The extra drive passed it is well worth avoiding this place altogether. Best Western, please do an investigation on your managers!

Update: The highly unprofessional manager who refused to speak with us at every opportunity who is accusing me of making threats. As stated before, Diana your front desk girl is the only good thing about this location. We'll be sending the president of your company a direct letter due to your mishandling of events. Once again it is with my sincerest hopes that you and Tyler are investigated for the mishandling of business affairs. Perhaps if there was an attempt to communicate we wouldn't of had to escalate the claim to dispute with the bank, kindly...
