We loved our stay at Motel California Midcentury Desert Escape!!! Francine was amazing and very responsive to any questions we had. The place itself was exactly what we were looking for as far as location, vibe and amenities. It was very clean with all the charm, personality and amenities that we could have asked for. The star gazing at night was out of this world and second to none! I will be back in the future and will be recommending it to my friends.

This was a great location with access to lots of off-road terrain right out the front door. The home was comfortable and I would recommend.
