Inn at Palm Springs

The staff were friendly enough. I arrived early and was allowed to check in a few hours before the usual 3pm check-in time. The place felt safe and secure - coded gates kept out anyone who wasn't a registered guest. The bed was comfortable, the AC worked well to keep the room at a good temperature. The room came with a kitchenette - microwave, fridge, sink. The pool was clean and refreshing.

During my 10 minute morning shower, the water bounced from hot to freezing 20 times without warning. The shower didn't smell clean - small standing stall shower in an unventilated bathroom. As others had mentioned, the room smelled strongly of cleaning chemicals when I checked in: Fabuloso and bleach. It is an older building on a main highway and there is noise. My room had windows but no view of anything - a wall was 4 feet away from my window blocking all light and scenery.

Nope never again.

to be fair: Its not Motel 6 and at least its quiet at night.

the older man who was the manager/owner/front desk clerk or whatever he was, was really ehmm.... i had asked if we could cancel our stay (i had booked 2 nights in advance) since this place wasnt close to where we had work the next 2 days farther in the area. We were rejected for that. Fine. However, the place smells like old dust and air freshener, a bad combo. We had to air out the place the whole day. And while I had tried to cancel our stay, he was telling us 'Oh this place is usually $180 a night, i dont know why you would cancel'. Are you for real? Its always under 70 bucks and for $180 I'd go to the Sheraton!!

no frills

it's just a humble little motel on the outskirts of town. I didn't expect much and i didn't get much...but it was clean and affordable and a good night's sleep.
