    As I said, it’s dated, but it’s clean and affordable. Hopefully if I stay there again, I won’t have to pay via Venmo.

    When I arrived, I was told that I needed to pay my hotel fee via Venmo, even though I had a credit card registered on Booking.com. I could pay it, but that meant I didn’t have any spending cash for the trip. I had to maneuver a couple of things so I wouldn’t get any overdraft fees from my bank. Also, make sure that you aim the showerhead away from the door, as it has a tendency to leak into the bathroom. That was the experience in my room.

    It’s dated, but it’s quite clean. It’s also nice to have a kitchen with a working four burner stove.

    Affordable accommodations in a great location

    If you're looking for fancy, this is not the place for you. But it's super clean and everything worked perfectly. That's way more important to me. And I saved a ton of $$, which I gladly spent on shopping and dining out.

    After having my reservations at a resort cancelled the week of my trip, I had to scramble for different accommodations. It's getting pretty hard these days to find affordable accommodations anywhere near downtown Palm Springs. I was pleased to find the Aloha Hotel. The owner and her son are exceptionally nice and very helpful. The facility was immaculate and the room, which had a mini kitchen, was very spacious. The pool area is lovely. The whole facility was safe and quiet at night, even though I was in walking distance to downtown. The whole facility is vintage 1970s motor inn and it reminded me, quite pleasantly, of places I stayed when I was a child.

    Decor is a bit dated but that seems to be the same with most motels in the US. I felt it was a little over priced.

    Quirky motel with vintage vibes. Perfect base for Coachella Festival!

    I booked Aloha for Coachella Fest. It was exactly what I needed. The pool overlooks the mountains and was great for a swim before starting the day. The bus stop was right out the front with buses coming every 20 minutes so it was easy to get to the main streets of Palm Springs and my Coachella shuttle from the pick up location. Across the road from Aloha is a convenience store/bottle shop which was super convenient. I loved the vintage vibe of Aloha. I stayed in the budget room and what some may feel is small, it was perfect. The furniture and decor was quirky and looked as though it had been collected over the years. Mona was so welcoming and gave me information on the buses, food places etc. She made me feel very welcome before I even arrived. As soon as I booked, she was already contacting me to see if I had any questions or needed help getting from the airport. I loved the personality of Aloha!

    Not much really, perhaps could use more hangers in the bathroom for the towels but that's just nitpicking.

    Service is superb, all of our needs were covered and the owner was super responsive and attentive to our requests. The hotel is super clean and everything worked as expected, beds were comfortable, shower was great. Actually it was the first hotel in a long time where the bathroom or the room didn't get all wet when using the shower, even compared to much fancier more expensive hotels. Nothing fancy but everything is functional, sensible and well kept. Overall great value for the money.

    The traffic noise was quite loud. The beds were comfortable but squeaky. The door to the room was flimsy and locked only at the knob. The key didn’t fit the deadbolt, so not very secure. The windows had missing glass louvres, so let in noise and air. Few other guests and no one on site made it a bit creepy.

    The room was clean, kitchenette was handy, décor cheerful. inexpensive for a quick stay.
