    We had a good stay at this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful, and check-in/check-out went smoothly. The room was clean and comfortable, it was as colorful as in the photos. The bed was cozy, and I appreciated the complimentary toiletries and fresh towels provided. The location was convenient for exploring the area, and there were a few restaurants and shops nearby.

    My own room , AC, was turned on, so the room was cool when I entered. Nick, the owner, was very kind and friendly. Bed was very comfortable. If you want your own room with no walls attached like a hotel, this is the place. Very private. There are coffee pads, cups, coffeemaker, a large refrigerator, a microwave and if you need an iron, it's upon request. I always enjoyed staying here. Recommend for sure

    That they have a bidet toilet seat was advertised but it wasn't hooked up to the water supply. The main road in front of the property is quite noisy but our cabin was located at the back so it wasn't a big issue for us.

    The price was good and we were given a cabin near the back, a good distance from the road.

    Great value, super clean for Joshua Tree National Park visitors

    • A Room with One Double Bed

    Some of the room features were not quite up to snuff. The A/C didn't have a filter, blew dust out into the room. The "clothes rack" was a super cheap plastic rack that half collapsed when I set a bag on it (was able to reassemble). Takes a long time for hot water to get to the tap/shower. Shower curtain was not the cleanest. The outlet was a giant extension multiplug poorly fastened to the wall. But for the money in this location, I would happily stay here again.

    Great location just outside of Twentynine Palms downtown. Love the funky ambiance (though shabby), VERY clean, no bugs, quiet enough at night, great value. Great water pressure. Comfortable bed and pillows. Would stay again.

    The manager was exceptionally kind and friendly -- very helpful in reassuring us that power problems (in the city) would be resolved in an hour-- they were. The entire establishment was painted in bright, happy, delightful colors. We enjoyed a comfortable stay in a old 1940's style motel -- we will return.

    Only thing I'd say is check the coffee maker. I believe need to be descaled.. I told the front desk and he said he would take care of and that he was proud of his employee who cleans. I thought that was chill actually.

    Person working front desk was very nice. Colors were fun. Vibe was chill.

    LED lights 2700K for a more natural lighting feel.

    9 Palms is an experience, not just another roadside motel. We liked the separate little kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave, table and two chairs. The colors are something else! You can see all this online before you decide to stay here. The history of 9 palms is interesting!

    Interesting property in 29 Palms. Very colorful units with all you need for a stay. If you are looking for fancy, this is not the place. Good value for the money. Good location on the north side of Joshua Tree National Park. The staff was very friendly.

    Our only serious criticism of this motel concerned the state of the electrics. The power drop caused the lights to dim if you switched on one light too many. Even a phone charger caused lighting to dim!

    Friendly welcome. Well situated for visiting Joshua Tree. Very fair pricing. Well worth considering if you require a very adequate stop at a good price near the national park.
