I had read the previous reviews on the noisy level regarding the trains. The tracks are about 60 yards from the hotel and the trains run 24/7 about 1-3 per hour. We had two rooms one was very noisy, we could hear everythimg from the road and all the trains. In the other one the AC unit drowned them out,... More

When I was little, and would drive through Gila Bend on the way to San Diego, I would beg my parents to stop at the Space Age. Unfortunately, my begging did not work. My husband thought that I had lost my mind when I planned this overnight escape with other friends who found themselves in the same predicament as children.... More

The Space Age Lodge looks just like 100 other motels that I stayed in with my parents when we traveled around the country in the 1960s and 1970s. In fact, who knows, I may have even stayed here in 1970! So my expectations were not that high when I checked in. But I was pleasantly surprised! The rooms are really... More

We stayed at the Best Western Space Age Lodge after research into other locations in the area. There is a reason people of discriminating taste stay here. Nothing else in the area is suitable. However, that doesn't make the Best Western Space Age Lodge scrimp on giving their guests a good value. In addition to having kitsch and quirky space... More

As they do have a monopoly on hotels from Tucson to San Diego our choices were small. Loved the newly redecorated, clean rooms. Shower was clean, but the tub was a bit unstable. Then, about 10;00 pm or so we thought we were getting hit by a train. If I could do it all over I don't think I would... More

We stayed here on our way out to Cali. The looks alone caught our eye and we weren't going to even stay in Gila Bend til we saw this place! I'll tell you our night in Gila bend was one of my favorite nights of the trip! We swam in their pool and had an awesome nights sleep in the... More

We've stayed here numerous times over the years on the way back and forth from Tucson, Arizona to southern California. And that's why everybody either stays here, stops here, or eats here. It's about the only place in the small town of Gila Bend to do any of the above. It's one hundred sixteen miles from Tucson and another hundred... More

Nice clean place, great pillow top mattresses and nice comfy sheets on the beds. Nice larger NEWER FLAT SCREEN HIGH DEF TV's a big plus at this hotel as well. Hotel is close to train tracks but not that bad.....take some ear plugs......I always do regardless of where the The hotel is located and regardless of city it is located... More

It's a cute little motel with a space-age theme and located in an area with very few other lodging options, but the train tracks are so close that it sounds and feels like the train is running right through your room. The included breakfast in the adjacent restaurant is a good value.
