Red Roof Inn Ridgecrest, Ridgecrest

The hotel was a nice size, with a comfortable king bed, and no traffic noise at night. It was very close to the pool but the rooms were quiet hot and never cool down.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were a nice size and though a little dated, they were clean and comfortable, which is all you can really ask for. Plus, the provided breakfast was awesome. On the downside, one of the evening shift staff was rude, but apart from that, the service options were good. Location-wise, it felt nice taking my dog out in the middle of the night and I felt safe. Being close to Death Valley National Park was a bonus, but the distance from the main road was a bit inconvenient. The free daily continental breakfast was good, although the waitress service and food choices were somewhat limited. However, the hotel being next to a good restaurant within walking distance was a definite plus.

My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, although a bit dated, were clean and comfortable, which was all I needed. The service had its ups and downs, with some staff being rude during the evening shift but others going out of their way to accommodate special requests. The location was convenient for my stopover before heading to Death Valley, although a bit far from the main road. The dining options were good, although the waitress service was limited, but the meals available were satisfying. The facilities were adequate, albeit some cleanliness issues during busy times. Overall, a decent stay with good value for money.
