Guest Reviews
Location
Situated in a remarkably convenient location, the Ocotillo Inn offers easy access to key routes, including the nearby freeway, making it an ideal stop for travelers. Guests appreciate the inn's proximity to various places of interest and essential amenities, like the downtown area and a hospital. The immediate access to a Denny's, directly connected to the property, is particularly praised for providing accessible dining options right at the doorstep. Despite the surrounding area having some mixed perceptions, the hotel itself earns commendations for its overall quality improvements, making it a reliable choice for both those passing through and those staying for a specific destination nearby.

Breakfast
Ocotillo Inn presents a mixed experience when it comes to the breakfast offerings—a detail reliant more on location than on the hotel itself. Guests who prefer a classic sit-down meal may find solace right next door at Denny’s, a 24-hour diner known for its hearty meals. This convenience provides a reliable option which many guests appreciate for the variety and quality of breakfast dishes.

However, the breakfast provided by the hotel doesn't quite meet the mark for some travelers. The offerings are minimal, typically packaged in a brown paper bag that contains items such as cinnamon rolls, frozen Jimmy Dean sandwiches, or mini muffins. While a few guests find certain items like honey buns appealing, most reviews suggest limited options akin to fast food, leaving some feeling it doesn't live up to expectations. For those seeking a fulfilling start to their day, the adjacent Denny’s remains the preferred choice.

Rooms
Ocotillo Inn presents a mix of comfort and functionality that can appeal to many travelers, especially those looking for a fair deal in town. Guests consistently praised the cleanliness of the rooms, highlighting a welcoming environment that seemed well-maintained despite the hotel's age. The rooms are thoughtfully appointed, equipped with convenient amenities such as a microwave, coffeemaker, and a nice-sized mini fridge, adding a touch of convenience to the stay.

Comfortable beds are often mentioned, ensuring a restful night’s sleep for most guests, and further contributing to a quiet and peaceful stay, even when the hotel reaches full occupancy. Many found the spaciousness offered at a great price to be an attractive feature, along with the property's proximity to a Denny's, which provides additional dining convenience.

However, some areas for improvement remain. While older, the facility has generally been maintained well, yet certain aspects of the rooms, such as shower valves and air conditioning units, could use attention. Occasionally, booking mishaps and maintenance issues like bathroom doors not closing and showers draining poorly have been reported, hinting at a need for more consistent upkeep and customer service. Despite these hiccups, Ocotillo Inn offers good value, making it an appealing option for those prioritizing affordability in a clean, comfortable setting.

Beds

Descriptive terms such as comfortable, very comfortable, and comfy frequently appear in reviews, indicating a high level of satisfaction with the quality of sleep provided. Many guests found the beds to be a highlight of their stay, appreciating the comfort they offered. However, while the beds received overwhelmingly positive feedback, some guests mentioned that the pillows could be improved, with suggestions that they were either too small or not as comfortable as expected. Overall, the beds play a major role in ensuring a pleasant and restful experience at Ocotillo Inn.

Many reviews express satisfaction with the very clean and comfortable rooms, noting the fresh and pleasant smell that adds to the welcoming atmosphere. The staff are often praised for being exceptional, friendly, and always smiling, contributing to a positive stay experience. While the hotel might look a bit outdated from the outside, guests find the interiors surprisingly well-maintained and functional. Despite occasional issues like cold Jacuzzi temperatures and some areas requiring more attention, such as bathroom maintenance and hallway cleanliness, the overall sense of cleanliness stands out. The hotel feels safe, and the connection to a nearby Denny’s adds to the convenience. For travelers seeking an affordable and clean stay, the Ocotillo Inn emerges as a reliable choice, offering a quiet environment with a friendly ambiance.
