Th eroom was spotless, bed comfortable and I had all the basics. The property was quiet for my stay (although there were not too many guests.) Convenient if you have a need to stay in 29 Palms for sure and the price was very very fair. I would stay here again. ##### Sherry Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Petre Sep 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The reception staff was extraordinary. The accommodation is good, above expectations, clean pool and the location is very close to Joshua Tree National Park extraordinary. ##### Petre Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Javier Dec 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities The room was clean. The bedroom had a cute little kitchen connected to it. The only down side was all the linen on the bed had definitely seen better days and a few of the items in the rooms seemed to be a little worn down. It definitely was a good deal for the price though. It also was close to the stores. There are tons of parking spots and some rooms have garages. The pool is right in the center of all the rooms. There are seats outside the pool area where you can sit and relax. ##### Javier Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michelle Sep 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very convenient to the base, was in town visiting a family member stationed at the Marine Corps base. Also, very close to Joshua Tree national park. I loved the garage style parking right next to the rooms & large pool. Staff at the hotel was very nice and friendly! I will definitely stay here when I visit 29 Palms again in 2026. ##### Michelle Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very clean ##### Gary Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bradford Jan 8, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service There was nothing wrong with the motel but nothing really great about it other than that it was an easy walk to the main street in Twenty-Nine Palms. The staff was nice and helpful and the room was clean as was the bathroom (cramped and small), virtually no sink countertop space). The hot water was a little uneven but ok. The motel provides packets of shampoo and conditioner that were difficult to open (no tear away slot). Parking was good but since we had a room close to highway 62 which goes thru town, it was a little noisy even at night but not unbearable. The bed and bedding were good. There is a pool on premises which would be nice in the warmer months and a little green area near the pool. The cost per night was a little high for what you get but location is convenient. Overall, the motel met our basic needs while we were in Twenty-Nine Palms. ##### Bradford Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Crystal Jan 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice quiet, clean place for our stay. ##### Crystal Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Irene Mar 18, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort nice location and quiet, nice staff ##### Irene Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### roger Mar 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very quaint, clean Motel. ##### roger Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Annie Oct 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities When you want a spot that is clean and quiet and close to Joshua Tree National Park and MCAGCC -- and you want to sleep soundly, get online smoothly, and stay in budget, make El Rancho Dolores Motel in Twentynine Palms your hub in the Mojave. The park is a 15 minute drive away, the base about 20 minutes, and your vehicle is just outside your door with the pool a few steps beyond. Need anything? The staff is accommodating and downtown is just a few minutes away. Whether you're traveling for business or pleasure, El Rancho Dolores always has a clean room and comfy bed for you. ##### Annie Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosemary Mar 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Older motel but clean and comfortable. ##### Rosemary Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth May 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great, friendly staff.
