Motel 6 Twentynine Palms

First...young lady at the front desk was amazing! So nice and helpful. Made check-in a breeze. Parking right in front of our room for free. Room had AC, a fridge and microwave. Price was fair. I give it a 4 overall as I'm reviewing at the level of hotel that this is. Problems with the room - biggest was it had 1 plug socket available behind the TV for the whole room to use - phones, laptops, etc and none near the beds. That was a problem, especially nowadays with all the tech. The TV only worked manually and you needed to figure that out. Light between the beds was broken...button pushed in to nowhere. All that being said, we booked it moments before needing it so that was a bonus.

Very basic but clean. Hot shower. Tv worked. No frills (like lotion, shampoo, etc) convenient to Joshua Tree National Park. Friendly staff.

I had full intentions of writing a good review as our initial part of the stay was fine. It’s a Motel 6 so I didn’t have high expectations: clean, mini fridge provided, and inexpensive. Unfortunately, the staff is not competent. I altered the departure date, reconfirmed the departure date TWICE and yet, they had us departing 2 days earlier than planned. They could not accommodate an extension and were not helpful in the slightest about predicament. I will never ever ever take a chance on a budget hotel again. Do not recommend.
