We stayed in the king suite, living room and kitchenette with a big balcony. The Palm was exactly what we wanted. Close to everything. If you don’t like noise being kitty corner to 5th Ave strip there are a few places with loud music close by, we still didn’t find it bothersome. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We had a wonderful experience!

The employees in the hotel were very nice. We got to enjoy 7 days in this property. The only thing I do not like was they did not have enough alcohol at the bar in the rooftop.

Terrible hotel. Pounding music till late in the morning, front desk staff were terrible, bed only had a sheet, water temp in shower was cold, a 2 star at best, but more like a 1 star.

Nice location, good pool area but NOT ENOUGH shade umbrellas around the pool and hot tub. Hot tub was warm one day then cold the next three days. You only receive two very tiny bottles of purified water each day, which is quite odd. You actually need to buy your own overpriced water at nearby stores. Definitely could use an upgrade in that catagory

It was a lovely room and met my needs for two nights. Next time I’ll be asking for the loft as it would have been nice to have a beer fridge to keep things cool.
