Heater barely worked, very cold room in winter. Receptionist nice but said the heater would get warmer later which it didn't. Used the hair drier to heat room in the end! Very thin blanket too so slept in clothes. Apart from that ok and wifi works.

The room was functional and it did have a fridge, which I required for my stay. When I got there, they couldn't find my prepaid reservation. Turned out "someone" put it in the wrong place. I told them the other person in my party (second room) wouldn't be there and they would charge the one night and refund the other,... More

Like another reviewer said, this place is a decent place to stay for one night. Although the place wasn't dirty, the room itself was very small and cramped. There was not much space to move in around. Then again, I only stayed on the first floor and not the second and I think there are larger rooms (for a steeper... More

We had to stay one night in Ridgecrest and choose the Budget Inn for our stay. The location of this motel is pretty good. Shopping centers and restaurants are in walking distance. The rooms are tiny, but clean and okay equipped. Staff was very friendly.

I go to Ridgecrest on a regular basis for business. If I'm staying alone and want a clean, nice place to stay at a good price, I go to the Budget. I have stayed at most of the hotels in Ridgecrest over the years, and this is the best value in town. Unlike the Motel 6, it's safe and nice.... More

I had to come to Ridgecrest for some Court related issues. I booked a place at the Vagabond Inn via internet as I was coming in from Maryland. However, when I got there the Vagabond turned me away saying they were booked. I ended up searching all over town but most every place was booked solid. I found the Budget... More

I had to travel last minute for business, and this was the only place available for my travel agent. When I got there, the room was tiny, the internet wasn't working yet, and overall the room wasn't very clean. I called the comfort inn down the road and made a reservation there. I went to the desk to cancel the... More

We had refunded the remaining nights back to the customer. The internet was working with other guests staying on the same night. We had commented to him, saying that was a conflict in his settings on his laptop. More
