10/10 Exceptional

This is an older motel. In my opinion, it is more than a 2 star motel. All rooms are first floor, guaranteed no climbing stairs to a room (-: My room was very clean. The building trim could use some paint to enhance the exterior. Shower was a smaller stall, but was fine for me. I plan to go back again this year for relaxation and exploring. It is very close to Shields Date Farm, where there is a restaurant, date-related gift shop, and The Garden Walk, a free, beautifully done meandering walkway with sculptures and scriptures depicting the entire life of Jesus Christ The Village Coffee Shop is a great place for breakfast; it is located in Citrus Plaza, which is about a mile southwest. You can Google it.

The room was very dirty I had to go to the front desk and ask them to clean the bathroom, the shower was discussing, the curtain had mold, and the swimming pool water was green everything was dirty, there was a guy doing drugs behind our room and2 guys came knocking on the door, the motel is dirty scary and ghetto

6/10 Good

Average, mostly clean. Should be deep cleaned after every guest though. TV did not work. My big critique is the door had a big gap at the bottom. Indio can get windy, so a lot of dust, dried leaves, etc was able to get into the room. The AC unit had a light indicating the filter needed to be changed, would not know when the last time it was changed.

Staff was okay responding to our needs but the place itself was not worth placing on Hotels.com lust!!! There was no hot water in the taps until a staff discovered the faucets are all backwards and takes about 10 minutes to warm up. It has full kitchen amenities but no utensils or pots and pans. The microwave barely functions but the ref can cool foods down to freezing. There were no trash bins in the room except for a small one by the toilet. In short, the amenities needed for a restful stay are lacking!!! Will not go back and Hotels.com should remove from their list. Definitely a 1 star place only because my parking spot was directly in front of our unit!

Kitchen light didn't work. Lights by bed didn't work, didn't have bulbs. Main switch also turned off plugs--most places this is an electrical code violation. Had to charge devices in the kitchen, if I could find the plug in the dark. Parking was isolated and not secure, had to park at another building. TV controller had dead, damaged batteries and was unusable. Pool was dirty, leaf filled. Staff had to be asked four times to provide an ironing board. One of the worst hotels I've ever stayed at, including several in third world countries. Told clerk about problems but she didn't write anything down so doubt they will fix anything. I've seen far better in third world countries. Property should be delisted from Expedia until they prove it is usable.

2/10 Poor

Very outdated, run-down, unprepared, unsafe. Cannot open the shower door fully or it would break off the rusted hinge. There was a large gap under the door which let in grasshoppers so I had to stuff a rolled towel under the door to block them. The tv never connected to signal. My door wouldn’t unlock with the key, had to walk back to the secured window at night with my luggage, in the dark. The key didn’t work for either, but finally did when rested on top of the sensor for one minute. The shower water had low pressure and was not even warm, I decided to wash my hair in the sink instead, while I was shivering from the cold shower. The packets of complimentary shampoo were empty, all 4. Only air inside. The second bed did not have pillow cases, only stained pillows, but I did not want to walk to the front desk again, so we just didn’t use that bed. The kitchen had a locked door to some type of room that had bright lights on all night, so that made my room bright all night. It was the worst motel experience ever and I am writing this so others don’t stay here.

I was told 3-4 different prices higher each time, when I called the property later in the day but per my departure at 12pm the same day the room was $70, as well as Expedia. Then it said suddenly "no rooms available for chosen date" so I called, told they had room for $96. Called back, told it was $150-180. I had traveled after a VERY long day just to patronize again as this hotel is HORRIBLE: dirty room, dirty bed, dirty and damp towels, no water pressure, dirty floors, and frighteningly deceptive as it was quite vacant per my 11:15pm arrival, which I am expecting the same greeting as the 1st evening, but told a different price by 3 different agents at front desk. It was not just "as if they were" but they DID PRICE GOUGE ME AND LIE ONLINE REGARDING VACANY AND PRICE. The younger man, assuming the son, saw (and I do understand many languages- it's smart to be kind to everyone, especially Valentine's day near midnight.) I explained several times my problem with converting Euro at the moment, so had only enough for the $96 quote. He glanced at my phone and saw the complete anount in my USD account and literally told the other representative out of sight how much I had, used a calculator in front of me and adjusted taxes and all to make it every $ I had for a gross, one damp dingey towel, no TV, gross shower, and just, deceptive/cruel treatment to a ret guest who'd just've stayed in Palm Springs for Valentine's day, decided I'd like some rest. REFUND PLEASE?!

Poorly staffed. Family that owns the place converted the first room behind the front desk into a living room off of their own living quarters. So when you look behind the front desk you can see discreet into the theater living quarters dream. Super unprofessional

Gentleman at front was kind but the whole place was a disaster. Rooms were unclean (dead roaches, no toilet paper, no towels). It was an unsanitary place. The sofa bed was unusable because it was so dirty. The man at the front gladly gave us our money back. Also, the room that we had reserved was out of order because of a clogged or leaky shower. They never called to let us know and they accommodated us with a poor replacement. The bathrooms also had electrical wires exposed with only see-through yellow tape covering them. My overall experience was terrible. We left to a Super 8 motel around the corner.
