“I wasn't too sure about this hotel, but I was visiting family in the area and needed somewhere to stay. I was lucky enough to have the wifey with me. I read some reviews, and it seemed ok, so I went ahead and booked a suite. I was very surprised at how nice this hotel was for the price. The suite had a large living room, a working fireplace, and a good-sized balcony. Even the complimentary breakfast was pretty good for what it was. Wifey even said it wasn't too bad. So overall, we would stay here again.”

“It will take a certain kind of traveler to love the Don Juan Motel and Calexico in general, even if for a brief over-night stay. I am "that kind" as is my friend, meaning there is no place we won't find adventure, fun, beauty and meaning. When we cruised dt Calexico looking for the perfect place, Don Juan's ancient Spanish-tile, low-to-the-ground roof-line was IT. After ringing the bell, a long wait before a gaunt man emerged from the pit of darkness behind the guichet. My first question "is there a dentist around here?" (I could not cross the border) was responded to with a grin that showed a single tooth. We all laughed. Second question concerned a room with two beds. Key to Room 11 disclosed a small but enchantingly furnished room - thrift-store vintage - and an adjoining separate room with each its own comfy bed! We'd brought our own extras such as computer but all other needs were provided including coffee maker, TV, old-timey phone. Lest this turn into the great american novel, I will close by saying that if you're in good company with your own open mind and that of an other, you'll create a unique journey in humble surroundings. The wrap-around porch discretely displays fading old paintings of the 1930s, there probably since the motel was built. Somebody threw out old pink beach shells in the alley out back and we picked them all for our art.”
