Bait and switch. Our room was not at all like the one pictured in your app. Door deadbolt did not work, sliding glass door latch did not work it had a wood dowel that did not fit in slot to lock door. Pine sol smell was overpowering. No flooring just sealed bare concrete and a filthy rug. We only stayed one night and left for other accommodations with no refund for the other two nights.

Kim and employees were very good but our unit was old not really that clean and needed some supplies! No real utensils to cook or prepare. Small frig and no ice until last day! In all fairness we were there to watch tennis at Indian Wells but I would not stay again! I think we got an inferior room because I went through Expedia! Maybe booking directly would have gotten us a better room. Location is good!

Not bad but interesting

Palm Desert Suites was an interesting stay. My husband and I stayed last week for two nights while visiting palm desert. Upon arrival, there was no front desk or check in. We called a number and left a message in about 5-7 minutes, the owner came to our car and checked showed us our room/gave us our one key. She was very nice and helpful. She walked into our room with us and looked if we had towels, we did not and stated that they would be there in 15 minutes. We did not see the worker after about 30 minutes and had to leave to our engagement. The next day, we left in the morning and came back in the evening. When we came back, our room had been entered, there were towels left and the bed was striped and made. This was strange simply because they were in our room without our knowledge with our stuff present. The bathroom shower was very dirty and there was a used bar of soap in the shower. There was no shampoo, condition or body soap provided. Overall, if I had to stay here again, I would but I would not necessarily recommend it either.

Lies, lies, lies

My family and I decided to stay at Palm Desert Suites based on the reviews from Hotels.com. The check in process was very different than anything we have experienced before. We received a text message letting us know our room would be ready after 4pm. We arrived and followed the instructions to park by the flagpole. Weird, do they not have a loddy? A lady came up to our car, which freaked out my wife and daughter. It was a long day so after inspecting the room (E33), we tried to watch TV and relax. After looking around we noticed a lot of things inconsistent and wrong with the room. Trying to make the best of it we went to bed and we woke the next day and my wife’s back was killing her. We notified the property that we wouldn’t be staying the 2nd night, see pics of the texts messages back and forth with the property. No refund has been issued and hotels.com wasn’t much of a help either. No refund has been issued, this property does not keep their word.

This property was really misrepresented. It’s a full bed, which is very small for two people. There is no bathmat. The furniture is minimal. It has one pillow for two people. Television is very small. No lotion or amenities in the bathroom. One small bar of soap.

There were zero trash receptacles. The Mini Split made a terrible noise. The curtains were not wide enough for the window size, The microwave didn’t work. The door to the bathroom was hung incorrectly so that when you opened the door, the door knob hit the step-down walk-in shower door. There was no sink stopper in one of the two vanity sinks. The second vanity sink’s sink-stopper was full of hair and crud. It was disgusting. The smoke detector’s light was so bright we had to cover it with a shirt. The standard sized refrigerator was installed flush against a wall on the left side and cabinetry and the stove on the right side. with the doors opening from the left. The shower wasn’t clean. The sheets were colonist fabric and had quite obviously just come out of the package due to all the fold lines still visible. There were two pillows, one in a pillowcase, the other in a sham with no pillowcase.

Cockroaches

Room def needs to be upgraded. Whoever did the work on the hotel did a horrible job. Then to top it off I saw cockroaches in the bathroom on the day we left. The lady that checked me in was very nice but then there was some maintence guy there the next day yelling at her outside our room. I say pay a little extra and stay somewhere else.

Honestly the stay was great! The only complaints I have are, I was not aware that there wasn't going to be soap/shampoo in the showers. That's on me, I just went to Albertsons nearby in the morning and grabbed what I needed - no big deal. The other thing was the water temperature in the shower fluctuated like crazy. It'd go from being almost too cold to way too hot every 30 seconds. But other than that the room was very nice and clean, couldn't have asked for much more.

Check in was a little bewildering, primarily due to me having missed a text message while driving to the property. While searching for usual signs of a check-in or reception area, I luckily encountered a helpful staff member outside the property who alerted me to the text message which contained the various codes for access to room etc. After that, everything went well - with clean, spacious room and lots of dining/shopping options within a very short drive.

Just when we should have received the info for how to get into the apt., we were hacked and emails were blocked. Drove to Palm Desert Sunday afternoon and no hotel, no hotel desk. Telephoned and took about 40 minutes to get a call back. Once we got the bldg. and unit number with lock code, all was great. Fab apt., facing pool, upstairs, #5. Just lovely. But, initially, what a goat rope of frustration and anxiety! But, would rent again. Absolutely, w/o a hack, tho!

Give this one a look

If you would like to have a kitchenette and pretty large room, this is a good option. I did not have an updated room, but the bed was comfortable, the kitchen worked and the water in the shower was hot and powerful. Bring all the specialized kitchen gear you may need, because it is very limited. The TV is a wee bit small and you do not have daily maid service. On the plus side, you can walk to the outdoor shopping center, a Sprouts market is close by and the neighbor is safe. I would stay here again (and I would probably be visually happier in one of the updated rooms). Again, not a bad option especially for the price that was amazing in comparison to the other hotels nearby.

The room was large, the bed was comfortable, and the location was great. When we arrived, there wasn't any soap for the shower; there were only two small towels (no bath towels) and only the partially used TP on the roll. We messaged the manager, and those items were supplied quickly. The pool was cold, and the hot tub was colder. We booked for two nights but received a message in error that we were past our checkout time after night one. It was resolved, but due to this mix-up, our key card no longer worked on day two. We reached out, and again, management was helpful.

My unit was not as shown in the photos…I selected a luxury suite, but was given a half updated suite instead. The floor was the old tile shown in some of the photos. The bathroom and kitchen were not updated at all, except for maybe some paint and the lights. The dishwasher knob was missing, making it unusable. The kitchen also didn’t come with anything to use the oven, the living area furniture was just 2 old chairs and a coffee table (no couch as advertised), the bedsheets were pilling like from being washed with towels too many times, and there was no laundry or gym (as advertised). Lastly, the WiFi router light is very bright and faces the bed, which can make it difficult to sleep. & the fridge in unit 33 makes a constant tapping sound that will not stop unless you unplug it. The staff was extremely nice. I wasn’t feeling well on check-in day and they let me check in about a half hour early so I could lay down. A maintenance man noticed me struggling with the door and immediately came to see if it would be okay for my stay. Housekeeping came 3/4 days I stayed over. If you’re looking for a no frills place that’s very affordable, with a kitchen and your own bathroom, this is it.
