I arrived at 6pm. There was wasn’t any staff onsite for check in. This would not have been so difficult had I not been sent 7 long text messages and 5 emails prior to check in. As I read through all these messages I tried calling the customer service # posted on the main gate and pressing the Ring camera doorbell button. No response from either until 5 hours later. This is more of an Airbnb and not a hotel.

Pleasant stay.

The hotel and room were easy to access with the codes sent to me. My room was mostly very clean. I appreciated that there were several coffee pods as I need at least two cups every morning. The only downside for me was that the AC was quite loud, but had to be on...I mean, it's Palm Springs after all.

I stayed 3 nights at this hotel. I had a serious air condition issue during my whole stay. On the second night the A\C gave error and started to not cooling. I couldn’t tell anyone as the property is a non-staff hotel. When I woke up I called customer care and they sent a technician a couple of hours later in the afternoon. He said he reset the a/c and said now is okay then left. The room size is big and the ven when the technician said it’s okay, there was really not perfect cooling in the room but I said myself it’s okay it’s better than having no a/c. However in the same night the a/c gave the same error and stop cooling again. It was a nightmare to trying to sleep without a proper air conditioning while 110 degrees heat wave in PS. I called customer care again on my checking out day yesterday. They said they are very sorry about all this inconvenience and they will get call me very soon. Since yesterday no-one called me actually. Hotel has nice decorated big rooms I really liked it when I first arrived. But air conditioning made my stay quite uncomfortable under dessert heat.

Fantastic hotel in beautiful Palm Springs. Highly recommend The Monkey Tree as an authentic slice of desert classic with a great pool / tub and sauna/cold plunge. Located away from the loud busy strip. Can’t wait to return

Very close to downtown and popular restaurants. Place was vintage, found it really cool. Great spot to stay with a large party. Parking wasn’t an issue when we were staying. You are looking at approx. 10 standard parking space, 2 for accessibility, and about 2 for EV. The suite we stayed was Presidential, it had 2 full baths which made me and my wife excited! Room was very colorful, lots of space. AC was blasting on cool which was a plus since it was almost 100°F when we visited. Room and facility was clean, no foul odor or smell. Easy to access, you have the main gate code and another for your room. The hotel does not have staffing active 24/7, so do note that if you need frequent assistance. Going back to the location, it was 20 minutes away from the Cabazon outlets and less than 1 hour away from Joshua Tree National Park. Also a few mins away from Elvis Presley’s Honeymoon Hideaway house which was sadly now private property but cool to look at.

Hidden gem in Palm Springs

What a cool hidden gem in Palm Springs! This spot was such a nice surprise find. Rooms were simple and clean, and we loved the hot tub and pool/patio area. Elise and staff were friendly. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

NO SHAMPOO! I have minimal requirements for most motels I stay in - a comfortable bed, relatively quiet, ice machine, working toilet and shower and soap and shampoo. This motel uses dispensers, not little bottles of shampoo where you can tell whether they are empty or not. After getting in and getting wet, I reached for the shampoo dispenser only to discover the dispenser was empty. I found no additional supply in my room and, since this motel is totally contactless ( which they seem to consider is a plus), there was no office to go to and person to speak with to get the problem fixed. There is a number to text, but I was wet and it was an hour before check out. Mini fridge worked and the loud a/c didn’t bother me, it actually blocked other sounds.

Need to update the room. Need paint, wood repair and shower repair. Need to clean the windows. Room only barely passable for appearance. No staff on the premise. We received two codes for the front gate and the room. I went for a walk in the morning to see the sunrise. Gate code didn't work when I returned so I was locked out.
