Manager seemed nice but not particularly friendly. We did not feel welcome. We booked this place because it advertised a pool and hot tub. The pool was completely empty and hot tub a green cesspool. Looks like it was awesome in its heyday, like 1950. No class, no style, room smelled, carpet dirty. Resembles a homeless shelter.

The motel was conveniently located within an easy driving distance to Patagonia Lake State Park where we were attending an event. The room was clean and we found the bed comfortable. The in-room fridge and microwave were very convenient. The owner/manager was delightful and made sure we had what we needed, and recommended local amenities. The only thing I felt was missing was my morning coffee. No coffee pot in the room. But we’ll definitely stay here again next time we go to the lake. It was very good value.

You get what you pay for, I suppose. El Dorado has seen better days. An abandoned look, stained floors, the wifi was iffy, and it took a long time for the older manager to shuffle across the lot, then another long time for him to process us. As he climbed back up across the lot to his room, he turned to stare at us, over and over, at each step as we entered our room. Parking lot in poor repair, overgrown with grass in parts.

I liked this place, although there are a number of nearby motels not listed with a booking site that are just as suitable but less expensive. You have to ask for ice, as there is no outside ice machine. The only thing hot about breakfast was the coffee. There are packets of instant oatmeal that you could make if you happen to carry a microwave oven in your hip pocket. Nevertheless, breakfast was good with some very nice bagels and other usual carbohydrate fare. Breakfast wasn't ready at 6:30- I had to rouse someone to open up. This place has a great outside pool -- all it needs is some water. Nevertheless, overall I was pleased. The room condition was good. They placed me far away from the road noise, and internet worked very well.

This place was I nightmare. I showed up to check in and the front doors were unlocked. No body for over 25min showed up. I walked a round a bit the restrooms and the Bar they claim to have is a lie. Yes they have one but it’s highly chained up. All the taxi driver said the owner said he will be reopening the bar in 2 week. That was probably last July 2017. I actually had to call The Nogales Police dept to do a welfare check to make sure they owner or employees weren’t dead in the back. I even shot video of the whole fiasco. I will up load to to YouTube next week.

NICE EXTERIOR

I’ve found that when I check into a hotel that has been purchased by East Indians, they are very nice but they don’t seem to put money into their hotels...i can expect to find the thinnest towels, cheapest toilet paper, worn out furniture and rugs and worn out facilities in general.
The place was dead but they put me into a room right next to the other occupied room where the inhabitants were quite noisy.
I knew that it wasn’t going to be great because of the price but I may have to start hiking up my budget if all of this bothers me. More than one night would have been tough.

Modest clean hotel

This is a modest hotel in a border town with Mexico. There was adequate but noisy air conditioning (very necessary in daytime). The cooking facilities consisted of a microwave and a small (dormitory size) refrigerator. Everything was clean. Free wifi and plenty of parking. Staff friendly and helpful. Facilities were appropriate for low cost.

Nice older hotel

An older hotel in amazingly good condition. Convenient to downtown, on the former main road. The owners try very hard to be helpful: I wasn't able to connect to the WiFi with my laptop or my phone. The manager sat in my room for half an hour working on the problem before giving up. There are several older hotels on this street that are perfectly adequate, and substantially cheaper than the newer hotels that line the newer road to the border. It's worth the extra 5 minutes of driving.
