“Disapointment”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

On the up side: Very close to Indian Canyon. Hotel was inexpensive.

Not so great: The room was not all very clean. Ceiling had cracks and big poorly patched holes in it and at night when my up stairs neighbors were stomping around keeping me awake I hoped it was not going to fall in on me. Chairs were dusty and dirty. Floor of bathroom was dirty. Pillow had hairs stuck into it. Holes in sheets and bed spread.

My room was supposed to be "non-smoking" but it reeked like cigarettes after the smell of the harsh cleaning chemicals dissipated.

Also my room was by the stair case and it was very noisy late at night and early in the morning.
I asked if they had a quieter room I could move to and they told me they did not. Front desk not too big on customer service.

“Super value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed here for a week vacation with a friend. The hotel was clean, comfortable and the employees friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet could be improved by simply adding yogurt and bananas. The location is ideal for access to Indian Canyon and downtown Palm Springs. Will definitely stay here again.

Room Tip: don't take a room opposite a staircase.

“Value For Money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We booked a family room which consisted of a normal king bed motel room plus another room off this room with a king bed. Great for a family. I feel the heat so being over 100 degrees everyday the room was only comfortable if the aircon was run all day. The second bedroom didn't have aircon so a fan is supplied but that was OK for the kids.
The room was neat & clean, service was great & breakfast was filling.
Nice to have the pool open late so we could swim before bed after a hard day sightseeing.
I would stay here again & recommend to friends.

“Lived up to hype”

Nothing to add to the 4* and 5* praise already here. We stayed here for 2 nights on the 6th/7th 11/11. This motel is at the top end of the value / money we had in So. Cal. I'd strongly recommend it to anyone (anyone not in the Mercedes / Cadillac bracket) in Palm Springs.
