The little old man worked with me on the price and I had a very nice suite for the night with full kitchen two bedrooms a kick back room to take off shoes and clothes and a bathroom with a bath...but the next I told him I may be back I had all my belongings with me and couldn't just carry them anywhere...the whole second half the day and early night I tried to reserve a room and called several times to get a room reserved but he didn't answer...so I got dropped off there with all my stuff and there was no vacancy...he wouldn't even let me out my stuff in a broke down room and I couldn't just leave it...looked at me like he had Alzheimer's or something...I showed him that I had a hundred $ on my PayPal account and asked if I could just rent a lil space for my things, but nope ended up having to call my sick mom to come and get me...I felt for sure he would work with me but nope not this time...I am very greatful to him and if he is I'll I wish him the best of health...

Quiet place they don't bother you come knocking on your door none of that you can stay for long term and weekly
Very reasonable prices. Even for a one with a kitchen.
For a shady exterior, this motel is a hidden gem on a traveler's budget. While it is tough around the edges, it has all the necessities and is within walking distance of several great restaurants!
Quiet. Next to the rail . Lots of eatery places. Great monthly rates.

Carlos is an awesome guy! Highly recommend this place!!
Low-key residential neighborhood with Reed Park Skate Court & playground, plus takeout eateries.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Arizona. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.
