What guests think

At Budget Inn of Needles, travelers consistently find a basic, budget-friendly stopover with clean, no-frills rooms, strong value, and an older property generally suited to short stays rather than extended visits.

Rooms are simple, with effective air conditioning and common in-room basics like a mini fridge and microwave, though space and bathrooms can run small and mattress comfort varies. Service is generally kind, but a few guests experienced slow or difficult check-in, and traffic noise from the nearby highway can be noticeable. A practical fit for a short, no-fuss stopover.

Nice spot... Few amenities but nice. Nice Chinese restaurant next door that has good food or a pizza joint a quarter mile away.

Nice place to stay in Needles. Room was very clean, comfortable, and safe. Samsung TV with all the cable channels from a metro area. Frig, microwave, nearby ice machine. Good value as well. If in Needles again, will stay there again!

the property was a bit rundown, but the price was right, it was clean, and I felt safe so, all things considered, i'd stay in it again rather than pay double for a bed and shower for less than a 10 hour stay.

I just needed a basic air-conditioned room to spend the night on a longer trip. This is an older place. It was clean and the service was pleasant. It had the lowest rates in town, so it met my needs.

This motel suited our needs for a stopover on our Route 66 trip. The room and property was clean. It was well worth the price. Don't hesitate to book here.

Clean room, kind staff, excellent price! The hotel has not been renovated, so don’t expect fancy. But, if you need a bed, a hot shower, a great air conditioner, and you’re low on funds, this place is perfect.

I arrived at the hotel at 1am, checked in and went to sleep. Woke up at 8am and left. It was what I needed for the night for a reasonable price. Didn't really see the place or area around but had no problems. Bring earplugs, the highway is right along the hotel and it is loud. I always bring them when I travel so it was not a problem for me.

Definitely the place to stay when you’re traveling on a budget and just need the essentials a clean bed, a warm shower and a quiet hotel room, the price was fair for what you’re getting the bed wasn’t the softest but it had a mini fridge, microwave and a tv

The room was small but well equipped with older furnishings and appliances. The bed was very comfortable. and apparently new. The shower flow was anemic. Only a few channels on the TV worked - no sports and nothing local. Give me that bed in a modern Motel 6 room and I'd be happy.

I was told that my total out the door price was going to be $79.20 and I was charged $90. I was also told it was for my dog even though the property says it is "dog friendly". I assumed it would be like a motel 6 and if it is dog friendly there would be no additional charges. The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful and informative but I won't stay there again because of the extra charge for my esa dog.
