Guest rating: 3.5 / 5
Red Roof Inn Blythe is a budget, low-rise motel set in a commercial strip off Interstate 10 in Blythe, California, a convenient stop for road travelers crossing the desert corridor between Southern California and Arizona. The 2-star property offers relaxed, no-frills rooms equipped with free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, microwaves, minifridges, and coffeemakers, with some rooms featuring kitchenettes for longer stays. An outdoor pool provides a place to cool off after a day of driving, and both parking and pet accommodations are complimentary, making it easy for road-trippers traveling with vehicles or animals. The hotel sits within walking distance of numerous casual dining options, including Mexican, Japanese, and American fare, along with several nearby bus stops for local transit. Outdoor recreation is accessible nearby too, with Todd Park about a mile away and Blythe Municipal Golf Course roughly five miles out, plus Mayflower Regional Park and Palo Verde Dam within a short drive. Overall, it functions as a practical, economical overnight stop rather than a destination resort.
Best for
This hotel suits budget-conscious road travelers and overnight stopovers along Interstate 10, particularly those needing a quick, affordable base with parking, a pool, and easy access to fast food and casual restaurants within walking distance. It also works for pet owners and families, since pets are allowed and children stay free with an adult.
Travel tips
Book here mainly as a convenient highway stopover rather than a scenic destination, since it sits in a commercial area just off Interstate 10. Several bus stops are within about 100 meters, making local transit easy, and a cluster of restaurants -- including Mexican, Japanese, and diner-style options -- are within a few minutes' walk. Given the desert climate, travelers in summer should be prepared for the air conditioning to work hard against extreme outdoor heat.
What guests say
Guest feedback is mixed but centers on a few recurring themes. Many reviewers highlight friendly, accommodating front-desk staff and note the property's convenient location near the highway and local eateries as strong points, along with reasonable, budget-friendly pricing. Cleanliness reviews vary, with some guests describing rooms as clean and well-kept while others report issues like insects and rooms that felt unused or neglected. Several guests also mention the property's age and need for cosmetic upgrades, as well as air conditioning struggling to keep rooms cool during hot weather, and a few note feeling that the surrounding area warranted extra caution overnight.
