Days Inn by Wyndham Ridgecrest Near China Lake Naval Station

Nice place to stay - clean and large room, free breakfast, nice Wi-Fi and parking. This is cool variant for economy stay.

I stayed here for the first time recently, and found that the motel I had booked a few weeks prior to my visit had changed from Econolodge to Days Inn. Renovation work was being done but it didn't bother me during my stay. The location was not the most convenient along a diagonal street near a major corner intersection in town, making access a bit difficult but it was ok. I had a large room with a large TV, and there was a separate vanity from the bathroom area. The room had a mini-fridge (though it didn't include a freezer compartment), microwave, coffeemaker, and iron and board, plus a desk and chair. When I first got to the room I noticed the smell of whatever cleaner had been used there but it either went away after awhile or I got used to it and didn't notice it. The A/C worked well though it was noisy. The included breakfast options were fairly standard but fine for me - coffee, tea, juice, cereal, mini-muffins, bagels, toaster waffles, granola bars. There were signs of wear at the motel exterior but my room was clean and appeared to be well-maintained (though the liquid soap dispenser at the vanity sink was empty). Staff was friendly and efficient, and the price seemed a reasonable value.

The room was large for the kiddos, but I asked for a non smoking room yet there was a blanket that had cigarette burns. The paper was pealing off. The bathtub had stuff coming up from the bottom. I choose those place for the breakfast option which states it has a waffle maker. Ended up going to spend more money at the store because they did not have the waffle makers. And the food they had out was either something my kids wouldn’t eat or was allergic too. Also I woke up with four different bug bites.
