everything was super dirty, unsafe door locks, old ac with awful smell and very loud.
I only stay some minutes and I had to leave the property to find another place.

The only thing I liked was that the staff was very friendly and we got to check out late with no problem.. Other than not there's no redeeming qualities for this place except. It did have a Mini fridge and a microwave but that's it..
The facilities are very run down it's a very run down Motel. Needed a cheap place to stay and book last minute for memorial weekend. There air conditioner wasbroken but the guy came very fast and fixed it but then it leaked all over my shoes..

it was run down. the owners bought it dirt cheap. it’s on a prime location but very unsafe with weirdos roaming after midnight.
it’ll eventually be sold then torn down for a better property and the Desert Lodge owners will be bought out by the new, potentially owners

Customer service
The advertisement was false. There was no sitting chair; no refrigerator or microwave. The bed was very old, center of bed was sunken, the shower head was broken. Room was not that clean. I had to clean the room and floor (took pictures).

I travel a lot, I’m not picky or give bad reviews, always honest. But this place is for sure the worst place where I stay. Stuff there was nice, I can’t complain. But the room was absolutely disaster. Non-smoking room smelled like an ash tray. Dust everywhere, the lamps were covered with dust, behind TV on wall, floor look like someone pee there. The bed has stains that look like some die there!!! Bathroom- Resting area bathroom look much better. The TV max 2 channels. You can see pictures from this place.

The location was good and the view from our window was great.
The room was very rundown. The front was off the air conditioning unit, just laying on the desk, revealing an extremely dirty filter. The door on the dresser had a wedge of paper inserted to hold it closed. There was handprints and yucky marks on the dresser and desk.

I've always avoided the Dedert Lodge in the past but it seems they've made great improvements in the last year or so. The rooms were clean, the staff pleasant and the other guests friendly. We enjoyed our stay very much.

It had a refrigerator.
It’s a dive. It cost nearly $200 for a fleabag flophouse.

I checked into my hotel at 10:30 pm and my room was still getting service done. My room was not ready when I arrived there. I had to wait over an hour for it to be ready. The staff was rude
3.5 / 5.0
Walking distance to the main attractions. The room and amenities were good but this place definitely needs some minor work. I would debate on staying here on my next trip to Palm Springs. Overall good for the price.
Most of the property and facilities need some work. The room was simple and very clean so I wasn’t disappointed in any way. I just feel some paint and cleaning of the grounds would make this place more appealing.
