I am writing this review knowing that lodging is very limited in Ajo, AZ. However, it took the front desk person/owner 10 minutes to find our reservation and he kept asking us how many beds we needed (which he'd know if he had our reservation in front of him and the room ready to go). The room as fine and it was clean, but we couldn't get hot water and there weren't towels for the 3 of us (only 1 bath towel) and the beds squeaked every time we moved. Did the room provide what we needed (beds, running water and a bathroom), yes, but was it great, no. Again, I understand lodging is limited, but I would not stay here again.

I hate to have to write this, but it overall was not a great experience. the water to shower was ice cold. the bed was so uncomfortable. I dealt with a sore back and shoulder all day the following day. otherwise, the room was clean, and the property was clean.

Laundry no. AC ok. Freezer never defrosted and unusable. Dead bugs on window sill. No grab bars for disabled. Bed very uncomfortable. Said next time I had to pay for the pet. There was just a sign he pointed to in the office and would not accept the charge on a card.

The room was in good condition and the staff were friendly. My only concern is that the blinds in my window did not fit the window, allowing outsiders a view into my room. I let the staff know how uncomfortable that was to me, and ask that when I return next week, that I am given a room either complete privacy from others.

Typical older place, but in good condition. Small room, but met my needs. Room was on backside and away from road so was quiet. Plan on staying here next time I'm in town.

If I could give zero stars, I would. When I arrived at this motel, I walked into a room that looked like someone had just gotten out of bed minutes before. The blankets were messy and obviously used, and the bed was not made at all. Even worse, the trash cans were full—including leftover food from the previous guest. It was not just dirty—it was completely unsanitary and unacceptable. There was no attention to cleanliness or basic hospitality. I had just traveled expecting a clean, prepared space to rest, and instead, I got a disgusting, neglected room. This is the bare minimum a hotel should get right—and they failed. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Spend your money somewhere that respects their guests and takes hygiene seriously.

Convenient and the price was right for a late arrival and early departure. Front office clerk was very helpful to us. Room was clean but no A/C on upon arrival so had to wait for room to cool down before we could go to bed. Property could be more appealing with some upgrades, larger bath towels, and figuring out our to prepare rooms for cooling prior to arrival.

Pretty rundown

The room was clean but didn’t offer much. It was rundown pretty and really needs updating. The pool was cold and not the cleanest. One guy kept bothering me for stupid reason. He knocked on the door asking if I needed housecleaning. I reminded him that I just checked in about a half hour ago. I put up the Do Not Disturb sign, however, he knocks on the door repeatedly and gives me a QR code to a menu. He kept on trying to look into my room. I won’t stay there again unless I completely have to. However, the housekeeper was awesome and very positive.
