Have no alarm clock, no microwave, flat shower valve, it's hard to pull with finger nail. My wife could not pull out at all. After 2 nights, we stepped by asking the office lady, Ana about clock, microwave...She was so rude, yelled at me, talked so fast like attacking. All I said to her to keep quite, no need to yell at traveler. Stay away for kind attitude!

We booked a room for March 13 to 16th as we have done every time we'd visit Palm Springs. We always enjoyed our stays here in the past but this time was a completely different experience. It first started with check in which took about 20 min because there was only one person checking in a huge line. No biggie, but wouldve been helpful for the poor woman working solo. I requested a room on the second floor but it was pretty packed so we were assigned a room on the first floor that was unfortunately right next to a room that was being renovated. So no chance to relax after check in with construction noise happening all afternoon. Cable wasnt working so we couldnt turn the volume up to help drown out that noise. The room was very worn down, dirty, holes in the walls and missing or broken outlet plates. Grout missing in the tile bath floor, broken/chipped laminate flooring that they tried to fix with glue. The worse part was the bed which bowed and sank toward the middle. I threw out my back after 1 night of sleep here that we decided to just leave. The manager Jose called me the next morning to ask where we had gone, i explained everything and how unhappy we were. He was apologetic and offered a refund for the two nights we werent staying. I told him i really appreciated that offer. He said we'd get a refund within 3 to 5 business days. Well its been over 6 weeks now and still no refund. I think thats pretty messed up to offer that and then rescind it. We will not be returning.

Property was very dated, the room felt dirty and many of the lights and electrical plugs did not work. Worst off, the wait staff at the on site restaurant was inattentive and the bartender was super rude and would not serve us unless we worked with our waitress (who rarely showed up at our table). I ended up NOT ordering any food and didn’t order any drinks. Would never come back.

This was our second time staying here. It was pretty good. Check in is easy, they let us check in an hour early. We mostly hung out by the pool, its convenient that the bar is so close. The room was ok, it was a double queen suite, not too small. The shower was a little sub par. Water pooled a little by your toes, but it wasnt a deal breaker. I do appreciate that the front desk had toothpaste for us since I forgot to pack some. Overall, pleased with this place. Staff is nice and helpful.

Denied Access to Rooms - Because of Pool Towels!

The main reason for my rating is not something that happened to us personally but rather something I witnessed. I was in line behind two other guests who were checking in line ahead of me. It was 4:05 pm (check-in time is a rather late 4 pm as it is) and they were told that their rooms would not be ready until after 4:30 pm because the room didn't have pool towels. Both guests said that they didn't care about the pool towels; that they just wanted to check in. One told the staff person that he just needed to change clothes before he met friends for dinner. The staff person said: "I can cancel your reservation." She said this at least three times. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Two different guests denied their rooms due to housekeeping being late with pool towels. The attitude of the staff person was shocking - no apology; the only recourse offered being cancellation of their reservations. I thought that I was going to be told the same thing, but our room was ready. Nonetheless, the experience of the two guests before me sullied our stay as well; I would not stay there again do to the shockingly rude staff. I seriously have never witnessed a worse staff member. Having said that, the pool area is pleasant; the rooms are decent but in need of some repair (our bathroom had some peeling paint), parking was convenient and the location a short drive to town. With some maintenance and staff who actually cared about their guests, this could be a nice place.

Affordable and mid century vibes made this a great lace to stay. Stayed three nights and we had a great time. Did not use the pool or hot tub but they have one. I’d give one more star if the room was a bit more modern, but I’m being not picky. Great place.

I couldn't really see the difference to cheaper motels next door, except maybe for the bar and would have expected a bit more. The room was spacious but showing clear signs of aging, like the carpet wobbling and coming of the skirtboard. In the shower, both shower gel and conditioner were empty and not refilled during my stay. When I went to reception at 8am, it wasn't manned yet. The pool was nice and in the morning, hummingbirds were playing around the property.

Chill Vibes

Overall my stay was great. Friendly staff and great and clean pool vibes. Only issue I had is with their restrooms. There is no vents inside the restroom to help with the steam and the window they do have there isn't no screen on it which can lead to insects entering the room. Also shower curtain did nothing to stop the water from coming out of the shower. But other than that, it was a great and friendly stay for my kids and I.
