Trip

As a retired general contractor I did maintenance for hotels and residences, old habits die hard, when walk on a site I look for things that need to be repaired, I looked over Hotel California during our stay. Site was spotlessly clean, landscape well taken care of, unit my wife and I stayed in was perfect, clean and in good shape, my wife is very picky and she was happy. Linda was the onsite Manager and she was great,got the site tour, and answered our questions. Was always available.

Paradise in the desert

A fantastic little motel, it is an oasis within an oasis. The rooms are great, the pool area magic, breakfast more than acceptable for the climate. The woman on reception, whose name I have forgotten was really amazing, incredibly friendly and welcoming, she alone was worth the stay, but pool area was where the real joy is, having breakfast watching butterflies and hummingbirds flying around.

Charming old Palm Springs

The building was older than I thought when we first arrived, but it has a charm about it that really grows on you! The staff was very attentive and the bed was the best ever! It was small and quiet also, all pluses. There were amenities in the room and there was nothing that we were missing. I would stay there again for a short stay.
