El Rancho Motel

First, I need to say the reception girl is really nice, she is the only good part of this motel. I don’t recommend this place at all! Very noisy inside and outside, you can hear the people next door every single conversation! They didn’t stop talking until 1am, and outside truck was super loud too, it just kept us up all night! The towels were not clean, a few towels have blood on them. This app Trip charged us more than the motel actual charge, you better off just call the motel and book from There directly! And using Trip app pay for the motel, I also got charged extra foreign transaction fee! This doesn’t make any sense, it showed in US dollars and I’m paying dollars, I still got charged! The customer service was not helping! I think I’m not going to use this app anymore, I will use other app for booking!

Made an unexpected stop due to a fierce winter storm. Could not have found a better place to hole up and wait it out. Classic 1937 hotel filled with Western and Hollywood memorabilia. The lobby had a roaring pine scented fire going. Staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. Full bar and a restaurant that includes solid New Mexican cuisine.

I arrived at 5 pm. No one was in the office. People appeared soon after. My room, 108, had no tv remote controls. The nice lady brought me two. They don’t work. I can only access one channel. The room itself is ok. No Kleenex, nothing for ice, teensy soap and shampoo. This is my third and last stay here. Can’t recommend. Thanks.

Old motel. A little run down. We had booked 3 nights while we went to Algodones for dental work. The first night the A/C unit melted it's electrical plug with a rather alarming CRACK and puff of smoke. The other 110v outlets in the room were worn out and intermittent also. The east indian manager who's name was of course Patel, got us a 2nd much better room. The manager was very nice and the 2nd room was clean and everything worked! I would stay here again.

Wow the whining! It's not the Taj Mahal but worth the money when I was there. I little liquor store to the north by the gym to get provisions to sit by the pool after a hard day of Mexico, Quartzite, and the gun range by the Proving Grounds. And Fat Harvey's to the south!!! I even have a card almost filled for a free nights stay. They may not be honored anymore since it's been a lot of years since I've played out west.
