    I think that the breakfast may be improved

    Rooms are spacious and clean. I loved the wooden floor and the big king bed. Bathroom is small but with anything needed. The pool and the view from there are amazing!

    Room furniture was damaged, very scratched. Dent in wall even though it was recently renovated room. Also no shelf in shower stall for shampoo which is very dangerous for mobility challenged people.

    Breakfast was good but the use of disposable plastic cups and cutlery was unacceptable. Also plastic cups in the room and no recycling available.

    Cute motel in Palm Springs

    There was a bit of a tinier parking lot. Fortunately there was street parking also easily available.

    This was a very cute motel that had clearly just had a remodel. The staff was incredibly friendly and the breakfast, even though it was similar to most hotels, was really delicious. They had a quiche every day that was great. The pool was exactly what I would want from a place like this. We were there for Stagecoach, so being at the hotel wasn't the main concern. It looked like they were also expanding to add a diner in the back. I liked the check in which was a Airstream trailer. They had security at all times. So felt very safe.

    Lack of variety with breakfast. Also kind of weird to have to go around the back to check in, but I understood because of the renovations. Just a little weird at first because all you see is “coming soon” by the actual entrance door (even though it’s for the restaurant) but you might think the whole hotel is “coming soon”.

    Once inside, the aesthetic was so cute! Since a smaller hotel, everything was close together, pool and breakfast area, and you didn’t hear people outside which is nice. STAFF 10/10, so nice! We also felt extremely safe with security at night. Pool was also heated and cabanas were cute! Oh and the view of the mountain was nice!

    The room was simple but clean and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel has cute midcentury vibes but feels like it has been recently refreshed. The pool area was very pretty and clean, enjoyed the hot tub too! It is also a pretty short walk south into the main shopping area of Palm Springs. Overall a nice, affordable place to stay!

    I was appalled with the wasteful use of paper cups, plates cutlery. Such a dreadful waste and very very bad for the planet. It is the one thing that would make me not return. Please think about using reusable products

    Loved the vibe. Pool was great. Bed was comfy. Staff were friendly and helpful

    Absolutely the cutest retro vintage style motel. Airstream office for check in. Sparkling turquoise pool. Cozy fire pit with Adirondack chairs. Comfortable beds.

    Front desk clerk was very kind, A+. Room was ok. A bit of refresh detailing needed. I wished there was a hairdryer in the room. The a/c heater unit stopped working in the middle of the night. Luckily it wasn’t too cold.

    Wish the curtains where more blacked out. Lots of light leacked through couldn’t really sleep in.

    Everything was clean and updated. The breakfast was good as well. I liked that it’s a smaller unit hotel. Felt private.
