UPDATE PER FEBRUARY 14TH, 2026 - 1130PM CHECKIN: was told $70 in person for the evening by front desk. Told $96 later that day over the phone as they weren'tavailable to book online ONLY with them but yet, though stated "FULLY BOOKED" it was quite empty. I was then price gouged for all I had Euro converted, including food money, etc, as the predatory and salacious front desk staff saw a glance at my phone, did the math on a calculatorIN FRONT OF ME TO ADJUST TAX TO EXACTLY WHAT I HAD. TRULY disgraceful. Then, the room: I was being kind at first, no, here it is- no towels, the ONE there was damp and dirty. Broken toilet. Disgusting shower to the point I wouldn't use it, as the pressure of the water was not adequate for a shower. They had SEVERAL vacancies and weretaking advantage of a late
It's just what you would expect from a no name no chain name I should say affiliation. The rooms are clean the building's world but it was a very nice point environment without the trees and green grass and very large pool it was close to a bar fast food restaurants grocery store it was even a small ranchers type market across the way where they sold the food right out of the field behind them the pharmacy close by laundry facilities close by banking close by for the price I paid I was happy the staff was nice. There were a couple Sean and Brittany who were I guess the caretakers for the establishment they really stood out above and beyond they were very helpful kind and considerate I'm older I need help with my baggage and Sean was right there to help and wouldn't take a tip.

The room was very large. The hotel is old so that would be standard for those days. It was very clean. Bathroom floor was newly tiled and very clean. It came with a full kitchen and the kitchen was clean and large although some of the drawers didn’t open.||||The hotel is in walking distance to a Walgreens and other stores.||||We never found the remote control for the t.v. Maybe you need to ask for it when you check in. ||||All in all it is a nice place for the reasonable price.
Its a different motel experience then I expected. The rooms weren't luxurious but more common but I'm more common. The rooms all seem to have front and back doors. I appreciate this because I am so paranoid about fires and earth quakes. Over all I enjoyed my stay. There is a large grass area in the middle of the motel where I heard children playing. Children playing is always a comforting sound. Close to fast food, grocery store and even a well know pharmacy. Another successful weekend get away.
Pros: One of the cheapest places to stay in Indio, room and bathroom were spacious, room was clean but old , large refrigerator with freezer- Cons: Carpet and upholstery on chair was torn in a few spots, no maid service, had a kitchenette but wouldn't probably cook in it - kind of falling apart. If you are just looking for a spot to sleep, this is for you. The beds were pretty comfortable. Like I said above, the hotel is quite old and the kitchenette cabinets were kind of falling apart. I guess if you want maid service, you would have to request it? Get what you pay for.
