Like I always say, you get what you pay for. Overall this isn't really a three star hotel but it gets a three star review because of my motto. We needed a place to stay in Palm Springs just for a few hours of sleep so we didn't want to spend a ton of money. This was one of the cheapest options and it served it's purpose. The room was clean and that is all you can really ask for. The bed was super uncomfortable and the headboard would hit the wall if you moved at all. Check in was strange, the entire process was done from behind a window.

Good value at this price range

Check in/out was very fast during mid week. Hotel seemed in good condition overall for it's age. Looked like renovations had taken place in recent years. Room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Only small issue was the audio of the flat screen TV was muffled/garbled at low volume settings, like you would set at night so as not to disturb other guests. Found out When I Checked Out that the problem seemed to be in the whole hotel and there was some type of key stroke combination on the TV remote (?) that was supposed to fix this issue. If that was the case, why not notify you at check in, or leave a note in the room (like wifi instructions) for this issue.

I wanted a nice weekend getaway and didn't want to spend a lot of money. The rooms were nice. They were in good condition and clean. There was a small coffee pot (like most places) not my favorite. There was a fridge in the room that kept our leftovers nice and cold. They even have a blow dryer for your hair. I spent a ton of time trying to decide where to stay and decided on Musicland because of the reviews. If you are big on first impressions this is probably not the place for you. My first impression was that is was a little run down from the outside. I wasnt going to be sleeping out there and based off of the reviews i knew the rooms were in good condition. My wife was a little aprehensive at first until the air conditioner in the room won her over (she hates the heat). I am big on cleanliness and the room met my approval. It was quiet and I slept great. The bathroom was in fair condition with good water pressure and plenty of hot water. If you are on a budget I would recommend Musicland Hotel.

This place is a diamond in the rough. Mid Century Modern original. Unfortunately the rooms are in need of a serious remodel. The pool and jacuzzi is definitely attractive but also, needs a good cleaning and more chlorine! I only know because I’m a pool man. The bedding was clean and the bed was comfortable. The shower was hot but as mentioned, the rooms need to be brought up to date. If they were... the price would double, which would be reasonable.

Musical disaster.

By far the worst Motel I have ever stayed in. Does not deserve even 1 star. Hotels.Com should not have it available as on of their properties and frankly one might reconsider using H.C as a provider. First of all we made our reservation on the evening of Jan 22. No where on the reservation form did it say non-refundable. The following day we learned of a family illness and attempted to cancel the reservation. H.C said there was a 50% penalty. According to H.C they sent a confirmation e-mail late on Jan22. Contrary to the confirmation we printed out when we booked the stay, that e-mail did in fact say we had to cancel by Jan22 or face a 50% cancellation charge. Duh, 2 hours before we had just made the reservation Needless to say numerous cancellation conversations with both the motel and H.C proved fruitless as each pointed to the other as to whose policy it was. So much for the penalty. The property had no security latch on the door, no clothes closet, only a flimsy portable rack, bathroom door couldn't be shut as it was warped, the heater had a broken temperature control switch, the bed sagged in the middle like a hammock and we saw one or more large cockroaches in the bath area.

Feel bad writing this, as the family that runs it is quite nice. The room was quite distressed and tired. Also, the owner used this room as an Indian Kitchen for two months, so it had a heavy odor. Nice to have a kitchen, but not one thing supplied, not even a dish cloth or utensil. We were told the pool was heated, but it was freezing, the hot tub only had one jet working. Stark bare walls, no head board. Bathroom was clean, but very old looking. Too bad, as this retro place has amazing potential. If it's called musicland, why not display pictures relating to music, or something. They loaned us bikes for free which was very nice. Hotel is walking distance to downtown, if you are open to walking 10 - 15 mins in the heat.

The bathroom light was on a timer and kept going off while we were trying to get some subtle light. Could not get the tv to work and the air conditioner was SO LOUD that we did not sleep all night. The pillows were like foam boards, so we used a rolled up towels to rest our head. The idea of this hotel was quaint but the owners, from another country, did not know or care about the cleanliness or amenities of their slum hotel. Very dirty floors!
