        Frequently Asked Questions

        • Looking to spend a day by the water? The Colorado River and Havasu National Wildlife Refuge sit less than a mile from Red Roof Inn Needles, so you're never far from riverside recreation. It's an easy stop for a paddle, a picnic, or some fresh air on a longer road trip.

        • Traveling with a dog or cat on your desert road trip? You're covered here. This hotel allows up to two pets per room, and the first one stays completely free as long as it's under 80 pounds. A second pet adds a small nightly fee, so nobody has to sit this trip out.

        • Not here. Under California law, this property has no minimum age requirement for reserving a room, which sets it apart from many hotels that require guests to be 18 or 21. That makes this one of the more flexible hotels in Needles, CA, for younger travelers on a budget.
