After living there 2 years, room suddenly refused to me. The window was slammed in my face and the clerk refused to talk as to why? He's a new clerk that i unknowingly found out, replaced the other clerk that use to live there. The old clerk was my friend, not sure why he left and didn't tell me. My friend stayed with me that last day with permission. Thinking he didn't like 2 Men sharing a room. LGBTQ beware!! Definately been discriminated against in one way or another. We also didn't know if he charged my friends card at 1st, he handed it back rudely and slammed the pay window in our face with a rude go away hand gesture from him and another woman. He treated me like I was a criminal. P.s Thanks for ruining my birthday by slowing us down to have to get another motel. Humiliated me infront of my friend who I was trying to feel comfortable to visit me for future visits. This was the impresion you gave him of how people behave in Ridgecrest, and where iv'e been living long term. We also changed our debit card accounts because you obviously took his card for ten minutes only to throw it back in our faces. Corporate hasn't called me back or answered my email about the matter. I am taking you to court for discrimination. 2 accounts my friend and Me. I will not tolerate this ectreme rude behavior. I helped my best friend study for law school and I payed attention. Whos next for you to be rude to, a Priest? Never been treated so harsh in my life for being a really nice respectful person. Again, absolutely outraged and the incident was...
Read moreI wish I did not even need to give one star. I realize the value in an affordable room. However these rooms are not safe or healthy to be occupied. I checked in and within about 45 minutes checked out. I could not stop itching after being inside for 5 minutes, this is what prompted me to start looking around at things a little closer.. Small list of deficiencies I quickly noticed... Without a ton of detail I'll list them. No smoke detector anywhere in the room. Door latch was a screw partially screwed into the door to latch the latch lock onto. Bubble wrap hanging from the AC it appeared it was used to seal some leak in the unit. Something appeared to have be squirt all over the walls, maybe was attempted to be cleaned off due to rag fibers stuck to it. Overall cleanliness was very bad. General feel of the room was uncomfortable. My service animal, which I was charged a fee(cash only, no receipt) for could not even lay down. And then a few things that maybe we're just cosmetic, like the mismatch light bulbs in the bathroom fixture with no cover on them The one small wall decoration that was placed in a weird spot on a wall to cover up a paint miss match, filthy dresser / nightstand drawers and NO Bible.
When I first pulled up to check in I should have noticed the disgusting amounts of trash outside all over the sidewalks including syringes marijuana packaging miscellaneous drug product bags in and around the...
Read moreYou get what you pay for - a semi-decent place to stay, but at a very reasonable price. It's a good place to stop just before making the trip into Death Valley or Vegas. The attendant was very nice and helpful - probably the best thing about the place as it's clear they want you to feel welcome.
The rooms come with a comfy bed, a working microwave, fridge and TV. The shower is also really good! The only downside is the rooms are quite dated and the floors pick up a lot of dust, but if you can look past that, they do the job for giving you a decent night's sleep. The door can be triple locked, which made me feel safe.
The location is good in terms of being near a gas station and a Walmart, though the neighbourhood doesn't exactly feel the safest. I'd recommend you try to park as close to your room as possible to ensure you can keep an eye on everything.
All in all, fine to use as a stop off for the night, but I wouldn't stay long term. I almost feel like the attendant deserves to be running a better place more suited to who they are. Worth it for the price if you're looking for a stop off before heading...
