We were comparing, for future visits, Boron Motel and Budget Inn as we have family in Boron. We were impressed with this motel. Nice, comfortable bed, coffee pot a big plus, fridge and microwave. Nice sized bathroom with big shower. Clean. And just 3 blocks from family.
Great little place to sleep. Clean. No bugs. Comfy bed. AC. You're in the freaking desert in the middle of nowhere. It doesn't smell like curry. The staff are easy to understand. It's better than your car. Stay here.
I just got back from a 5 day multiple state road trip with my husband and two small children, and this motel was the perfect place to stay on our last night! The room was clean, the bed was super comfy, the fridge, microwave and hair dryer worked. The television had no service but it may have been something simple to fix had we stayed long enough to want to use the TV, but we weren't there long enough for my kids to want to use it. The bathroom was spacious and the water pressure in the shower was fantastic! The staff were polite and called when we were late in checking in (the I-15 traffic was atrocious). 5/5
Very nice and clean. The owners are very nice and socialable. I've stayed here about 4 times in the past 20 years while traveling on hwy 58. Boron is well known from the late 1800s and the" TWENTY MULE TEAM" which pulled a big payload of BORAX from Deathvally to San Bernardino California to make laundry detergent. I'm sure I'll be back in the future. Thanks Smokey
Very nice owner manager/owners? Very well kept with clean property and rooms. I'm the kind that views the room first using a flashlight before I will agree to rent the room. It's a road side motel from an earlier era but is well run. Would use again.
Stumbled across this motel on our way back to vegas, the staff are very pleasant and friendly and very knowledgeable about all the local history (it's a very old mining town) Our room was perfect for us, nice big comfy bed,fridge,microwave, coffee maker,TV and hair dryer oh and good working air con. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would highly recommend the place
Lovely little motel. Staff is super friendly. Parking is right in front of your room. There is a freight line that runs by periodically so expect some noise. Accommodations are clean and neat.
It was just what we needed for a one night stay. Nothing fancy, but clean, comfortable, and we felt safe. The lady who checked us in was sweet and helpful. They had WiFi, TV, small fridge, microwave, coffee maker - so we were happy.
