It was nice to have joining rooms with my (adult) children. Everything was comfortable and easy. Having just come from Las Vegas, the extra perks, like the coffee maker, fridge, laundry, pool and bottled water was lovely. The pool looked nice - but we weren't there long enough and the temperature was cool, but atleast it was open.

I recently stayed at the California Inn in Barstow, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The hotel was clean and well-maintained, which I appreciated right from the start. There was plenty of parking available, making it convenient for our arrival. The hostess greeted us promptly, setting a positive tone for our stay. I had a good night's sleep in a comfortable room, which was exactly what I needed. One of the highlights was the breakfast; it was excellent! I enjoyed having the option of an omelette, along with sausage and country potatoes. It was a great way to start the day. I truly enjoyed my stay and would look forward to returning in the future.

I had a large cooler that I needed to bring into my room. Room was on the 2nd floor of one of the larger buildings on the NORTH side. I couldn't find an elevator anywhere so I had to carry it upstairs to get it to my room. Not a problem or complaint for me, just want to warn folks who need accessibility that this might not be the right property for them, or to at least try notifying the staff on the front end that they need a room that easily accessible.
