TownePlace Suites Barstow - Barstow, California

This hotel is new, and our two-queen-bed room felt more spacious than a typical non-suite room. I attempted to check in early using the Hilton app, but the front desk clerk informed me that this property isn't fully integrated into the Hilton system yet. The clerk also mentioned that dune buggy noise might be an issue throughout the night, which was a bit concerning. I requested a quieter room, and she assigned us one facing the parking lot. Thankfully, we didn’t hear any dune buggy noises during our stay, even though it was a Saturday night. In fact, it was fairly quiet all night except for some heavy footsteps in the room above us.||I was also told the hotel had an on-site restaurant, which we were counting on after a tiring nine-hour drive. However, I was disappointed to find out that the "restaurant" was just a hotel bar with a limited menu of standard bar fare—burgers, fish tacos, flatbread pizzas, and salads. The dining area consisted of only a few small booths and tables in the lobby, so it lacked the feel of a traditional restaurant. The food itself wasn’t bad, just average. For other dining options, there are several fast food places and a few traditional restaurants nearby.||The bathroom was a highlight of the stay—spacious and equipped with a large, walk-in shower, which was very nice.  ||The hotel does have a good free breakfast spread consisting of scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, cold cereal, bagels, fruit, waffles, etc. Their coffee was pretty good too. No complaints for the breakfast.||Overall, this is a nice hotel, and I’d consider staying here again, assuming the dune buggy noise isn’t an issue.

The good - clean hotel. Nice breakfast and free. Bar inside the hotel, itself. Good location.

The bad - my room was on the first floor. Stayed there five nights. The building design and construction is such that you hear everything from above you if staying on the first floor. Everyone working there knows this - when I complained about the noise the lady behind the desk chortled a bit and replied ‘everyone hates staying on the first floor’. Apparently it’s a joke you aren’t in on until you unknowingly stay in a room on the first floor. Sad.

What a great experience we had. I did not expect much in Barstow but this place was so refreshing. It was super clean and modern. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They had a bar and served food in a great lounge. The breakfast was delicious with real red potatoes and the waffle mix was on point. Trust me, I'm a waffle guy. The rooms were very spacious and felt large. The pool and patio was very nice and modern. I will absolutely book here again when traveling.

In this price range, surely hotels cannot get better than this. Every area of this hotel looks brand new. My suite was spotlessly clean and had everything that I needed. The location was fantastic for convenience, a couple of minutes walk from the outlets and loads of restaurants. Rooms at the rear even have lovely desert views. I could even watch sunrise over the mountains without leaving the room. ||The only issue I had is that I cut my foot on broken glass around the pool so be careful, especially with children as the outside areas may not be cleaned as much as inside the hotel. ||I cannot comment on the free breakfast other than the seating area looked really nice and clean. There was also happy hour at the bar every evening.

Best hotel in the area! So clean, kind staff and so much around for an overnight stay or a longer stay. Loved how clean and new the rooms are. Easy check in. Highly recommend!

Clean and comfy! I’m confident this is the nicest, cleanest place to stay in Barstow. The rooms are spacious, new, clean and equipped with everything you would need in a kitchenette— even a dishwasher! Pool and hot tub were a nice bonus too, patio had a great fire pit. Highly recommend, especially for longer stays.

Just finished a quick one night stay. I’m a lifetime platinum member, but I rarely write reviews. This place was a great value. Clean, new, great amenities, great bar/restaurant, polite and professional staff. Good, fresh breakfast with adequate variety. Definitely above average for this caliber of hotel. ||We stayed in the one bedroom queen suite. Large, clean, and attractive. Nice kitchenette. Plenty of room to stretch out. Two tvs. Separate ac/heating units. Blackout curtains. Large kitchenette with everything you could possibly need. Plenty of usb plugs and storage space. ||One constructive comment for management. The sofa bed/pull out in the queen suite is unusual and pretty uncomfortable as a bed. Not enough padding. It’s a little like sleeping on a board. For our personal situation, it was fine. However, I think you’ll find a need to replace those with something more comfortable and functional. Or maybe you could offer a mattress pad of some type for folks using the sofa as a bed. ||To be clear, that will not stop me from staying again. Overall excellent hotel. Good work.

We stopped here on the way from the coast of California on our way to Vegas. This is a newer hotel that has lots of good amenities.||The room was very nice, comfortable. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was nice, modern, clean and had amenities. The staff at the front desk was nice and friendly.||The breakfast was just OK and I would’ve preferred to have a selection of different fruits like cantaloupe, watermelon, melons, etc. There was a waffle maker, bacon, eggs, several different types of coffees, as well as several different types of bread.||There is also a large bar area with food served in the afternoon. Outside there is a pool and large sitting area with a large fire pit.||It’s a great place to stay while traveling through the Barstow area.
