Desert Hot Springs hotel guide. Independent hotel in Desert Hot Springs, California

"We stayed in s villa behind the resort. It was big and very convenient. However it was a bit trashy. The mini blinds were completely broke it didn’t look freshly cleaned. And it had a private Jacuzzi that didn’t work"

"Great value for the money. Pool and hot tub are nice. Staff is freindly. Property is a bit old. Area is safe but not charming "

"Irons didn’t work, staff was not helpful finding a working replacement (3rd time and 30 minutes later was a charm). Pool/hot tub had stones/edges falling off the ledge."

"Pros: Large room was very clean when we arrived; delicious breakfast; bikes; mist machines at the pool; excellent margaritas. Cons: Lumpy uncomfortable beds; thin walls; dirty A/C and bathroom fans; pool water, pool deck and loungers not clean; gross smell in hallways; understaffed restaurant. Overall this is an aging property with bright paint and furnishings to mask its imperfections. The price was fair but we were not very comfortable."

"Fantastic pool deck. Bikes available to borrow. One block off main drag, easy walk. Rooms are small but pool and location made up for it! Great location and fun vibe."

"Here’s a clear, direct review you can use or adapt: ⸻ I had a very disappointing experience staying at this hotel. The property is clearly outdated and poorly maintained. The carpets were dirty, the ceilings showed visible signs of water damage, and the overall condition of the room felt run-down. One of the biggest issues was the lack of basic services. There was no housekeeping during our stay—we had to repeatedly go to the front desk just to get clean towels. The water pressure was inconsistent, and at times there was no hot water at all, which made it very inconvenient. Additionally, the room didn’t even have a phone, which made it difficult to contact the front desk for assistance. Overall, the stay was uncomfortable and frustrating. I would not recommend this hotel unless significant improvements are made."

"Great staff, quiet place"

"Quick stay but clean and spacious "

"Staff at the resort were amazing. From the front desk staff to the life guards all were nice amd always had a smile on their faces. Not to forget helpful. The property was clean and very well kept. The rooms on the other hand were a bit dated The bathroom definately needs some work done. Overall our stay was pleasant. "
