2-Star Hotels in Palm Springs

This was my second stay in this motel-style place (it’s 2 story - so prepare for stairs - and outside doors all face a courtyard). Super clean, friendly staff, and excellent balconies, pool, and hot tubs. The only downside is that the hotel is on a busy road, but there is a narrow sidewalk to the nearest intersection and the walk into the heart of Palm Springs is pleasant (e.g., it’s an easy 10-minute stroll to the Thursday night market, famous artwork, etc.). Our family has had two great stays here and will continue to make it our go-to for Palm Springs!

All Dad wanted was a pool to hang out in for the weekend. I did my research and it paid off! Even though some comments made the pool sound ”not that great” ...it was! The online pictures don't do it justice! It's BIG, clean, only 5' deep total so you can walk across! Plenty of chairs and umbrellas, just really pretty and fun! Music playing at just the right sound. Pool bar food good and fast delivery.

The location is very good, and the conditions are stronger than the average motel. Clean and hygienic, warm. Can't fault it, and you don't need a bike at this price point. Hope to come again in the future

A great getaway.....Yes a MOTEL 6---Palm Springs EAST! Can not say enough great things about MOTEL 6 Palm Springs EAST! **(Make sure it's MOTEL 6 Palm Springs EAST.....NOT DOWNTOWN!)** First---It does not look like a typical MOTEL 6. It has a 1960s--modernism look about it. Surround by palm trees and mountains. A nice scenic spot especially from the pool and rooms facing the pool. Again, this is not your typical MOTEL.....it's NOT corporate owned---it's a franchise!! The staff is TOP NOTCH--head by Property Manager Debra----they are always friendly and very accommodating with both motel matters and The Palm Springs area! Debra has added your own extra special touch to the property. It's a great location very close to downtown Palm Springs. Close to restaurants too. There is also evening security at the property. If you want to escape to Palm Springs for a no hassle, no frills stays.....TRY MOTEL 6 Palm Springs EAST. You'll be very happy with your desert stay!

From the Grand Canyon, I chose this hotel. The hotel is in a good location. The rooms are fully equipped with microwave, refrigerator, coffee machine, and the first floor. The outside of the room is a pool and hot spring pool. I have a comfortable spa at night. Free parking in the yard, there is a restaurant at the entrance of the hotel, very delicious, a lot of people. 20 minutes drive from the desert Ole, shopping is super convenient.

Recently, I stayed at the Vagabond Inn for a total of nine nights as a solo traveler. I really liked it. I was there at what seemed to be a very slow time both for the hotel and Palm Springs generally, so this certainly helped in the hotel being very quiet. It was easy to use the pool and jacuzzi, as other guests there were scarce. The hotel is on the south end of town and super-conveniently located to most things you’d want to do in Palm Springs; it’s also near the Deepwell neighborhood which is full of houses designed by notable architects – a pleasant jog or bikeride area. The first room (322) that I had at the Vagabond was attractively designed in a mid-century mod fashion. The second room (307) was similar, but its bathroom had not been renovated. This room had really the only flaw I encountered in the two rooms, which was a very weak shower. Bed mattresses were a bit too soft for me, but pretty normal for hotel beds. Like some hotels currently, this one was not doing any housekeeping because of Covid. This is a fairly ridiculous excuse, but I did not find it to be a major problem. Likewise, the snack shop by the pool is closed, but given the low number of guests, this is understandable. The pool and jacuzzi are very nice – lots of seating, and a very large jacuzzi. Supposedly, these close at 8 p.m. but fortunately, this did not seem to be enforced. In keeping with another review on here, I note that some kids were using the pool who were not hotel guests – I believe they were friends of the manager. They generally give hostile looks to the guests and sometimes play loud music. During my stay, it was little enough not to be a problem, but the hotel should rethink their policies on this. Overall, very good hotel for reasonable rates.

First off, I must mention that pictures of this place on many booking engines, etc are out of date as it seems all rooms have been renovated. Our One Bedroom unit was immaculate, definitely renovated in the recent past and everything was neat and clean; matching the unit pictures on their own website. We had a nice patio with table/chairs, lounge chairs, grill, and a gorgeous view of the mountains. The resort grounds are also beautiful and well maintained. The property itself is nice, quiet, and laid back. We barely saw a few others during our stay and had the pools and hot tubs to ourselves any time we ventured over to them. The location was perfect for us with plenty within close range and right off of Palm Canyon drive for easy access anywhere. The office staff were all very friendly and they were extremely helpful during check-in. Overall we'd highly recommend this place and would definitely choose to stay here again in the future if we return to Palm Springs.

I cannot recommend this place. After leaving the room for a short amount of time, we returned to find everything stolen. This hotel is four story and 129 rooms with with NO SECURITY CAMERAS except in the lobby. This hotel can be accessed from the outside without going in the lobby. Upon checking in, the front desk was already talking to the police about someone roaming around the premises. That should have been the red flag. Someone walked out the hotel with 5 backpacks and 4 suitcases with ZERO video footage. This includes the parking lot. If something bad happens here (hopefully not) such as a car being stolen, a person robbed, or any type of an assault, nothing is on camera. Stay at your own risk.

Totally taken advantage of. Due to severe wind, all flights were cancelled so had to book a room for the night. Because it’s Valentine’s Day weekend I knew it would be more money and limited availability in the city but this dump was over $300! Robbery! Dirty. Hair on the pillow, hair in the sink and on the floor. I have a shaved head so definitely wasn’t mine. With Covid going on I was so uncomfortable I slept will all my clothes on including my hoodie. They sprayed a ton of deodorizer in the room but that ain’t foolin anyone. This is a $50 hotel so shame on them for what they do. I’ll pay $300 for a nice hotel and immaculate room but this was gross.
