Welcoming Stay
Great front desk welcome. The winds were high and gusty and on the 2nd floor you can definitely hear it. Not the hotels fault of course. Secure parking and a safe stay.

Stay here if you need to stay in Mohave!
If you need to stay in Mohave stay here! It was clean and the staff was great. The breakfast was wonderful. Room was updated. Bed was comfortable. Shower and bathroom were wonderful. Didnt get to use the hot tub or pool due to our late arrival but they were clean and I watched the staff clean and setup the cleaning cycle.

I received a very warm and genuine welcome from Ariana at the front desk. She was absolutely terrific and I was so surprised on how clean my room was and knew everything was clean my carpet. I really enjoyed my stay there. Will stay again.

We reserved this room sight unseen, while on the road, about a half hour before we arrived in the town of Mohave. Expedia says no cancellations are allowed. However, when we arrived, we discovered the hotel was directly across from some VERY busy and LOUD train tracks. Furthermore, the motel is on a VERY busy road with huge semi-tractor trucks zooming by all the time. We were exhausted from traveling, and these conditions were totally unacceptable. Had we known the noise level, we would not have reserved a room at this motel. But the proprietor said we couldn’t cancel them. To me, there is a problem with this policy. When the room is below standards, it should be allowed to cancel the reservation. I WILL NOT USE EXPEDIA AGAIN, since this was a very unfair and disappointing experience. I would appreciate hearing back from either the owner of the motel or an expedia representative. I am also hoping to receive a refund for the cost of this room. Best wishes, Mary Corbin

First, the staff were awesome. Having said that the area is sketchy at best. The absolute worst is the property is approximately 120 meters from the railroad tracks and Hwy 58 is next to that. Can you say, "continuous noise"? We will not be staying there again.
