Next to trains

It is located right next to railways. We didn't realize it until we arrived at the hotel. We couldn't sleep because of trains coming and going making terrible loud noises. Terrible!!

This is simply a clean, basic hotel. Comfortable bed. "Desert Winds" is an appropriate name...very, very windy on the night I was here. It is in Mojave, so I didn't expect a lot of food choices. Thai restaurant was good. I would stay here again for an overnight.
