We stayed here once in the past and did not have a good experience. However, I like to give places a second chance. This time the stay was better, but still not great. We travel with our cat, which is why we stay at Motel 6. The property at 595 E. Palm Canyon is a much better choice. That property is very well managed, and is in a beautiful location. The staff at this location were friendly, particularly Joshua at the desk, and every housekeeper we encountered. Particularly the one I take to be the leader. The room was dated, definitely time for a refresh, but the beds were comfortable. The internet is horrible here, as it was with our previous stay, so they clearly haven’t taken steps to update. The shower was horrible. Needed maintenance and had terrible water pressure. Only one ice machine was working, and even it would often be out of ice. My advice is to stay at the 595 E. Palm Canyon location if you are able. You’ll have a much better experience.

The check-in was so delayed. Finally got the key to room and it didn't work. Had three small kids with me and the elevator was out of service. Once in the room, the air conditioning unit was off wall and on floor, it was more than evident it hadn't been cleaned, absolutely no clean towels/sheets, black mold on sink in bath- disgusting- felt totally afraid to go outside with the drug meetings going on- so we just stayed in room and slept on top of the beds and left first thing in the morning to a local wonderful boutique hotel in Palm Springs. My mom made the reservation as she had stayed in one of these updated Motel 6 places about 7 years ago during a Calif trip and thought the Palm Springs one would be nice as it's right downtown. No such thing. Huge disappointment.

The bed sheets definitely weren't clean and I unfortunately didn’t realize until too late in the evening 10pm (so they couldn’t and wouldn’t have them changed ) … there was obvious traces of man mayo and lubricant on the top sheets. Had issues with the door key every time I left the room and had to go to the front desk to get it reissued. There was no soap or shampoo in the room and the ac made a very high pitch sound

On hotels.com I was quoted $54 for one night. When I got finished with hotels.com it cost me $70. So I'm not sure I will ever use hotels.com again

Ask for the room it was clean very nice even a refrigerator.
But the AC did not work, I spoke to the staff and nothing ever happened.
I went to to shop for food only to find out the hotel does not have a microwave. I have never stayed in a hotel that didn't have a microwave in the vending / laundry room.
I'm just disappointed in the entire experience.

This was the worst experience ever, never in my life have I encountered a hotel cancelling my reservation due to a large number of booking. We booked two months in advance and when we arrived to check in they have cancelled ours and orders reservations due to the high Number of rooms being booked this holiday weekend. When we looked online prices were tripled . It seems they noticed they gave us cheaper rooms and cancelled to book at a higher rate. Front desk lady was so rude and unprofessional. Did not give a crap about what happened. Manager was not there and toldhe did not want to talk to us on the phone. Worst expierence ever and never had this happen to me before!

We did not get to actually use our booking because the hotel decided to sell off rooms at higher prices.. And canceled our bookings with no notice. Their words were \"it's a busy weekend and people came to check in early by 4pm we got booked and cancelled your reservation. We have no rooms available. Per policy, we can do that by 4 pm..\"
Yet nowhere does it say on the site. And we were never notified. So we arrive at 440 pm to no available rooms even though we booked a month in advance. No way to accommodate . And no available manger to speak to. Even though the employee spoke to the mngr on the phone and said \"ok, so i'll just tell them you're not available\" and hung up. Telling us there's nothing they can do about the 3 rooms we booked.
Horrible customer service from the girl at the front and straight attitude from the start. When we looked online, there were still rooms showing available at a much higher price than what we booked it at.

The room itself was mostly clean, though bare. No hair dryer, no shampoo, few small thin towels. The shower head leaked from the connection and sprayed water at the ceiling. The real problem was the motel itself. It was dirty, there were omeless people in the stairwells, and the police were there multiple times during our stay. The photos on line were not bad, real life was nasty.

I hadn't stayed at a Motel 6 in many years so I had forgotten just how basic it is: you get TP and a couple mini bars of soap, that's it. No shampoo, conditioner, lotion or tissues.
The furniture was minimal as well, no piece of furniture had a drawer. There were a couple rods for hanging clothes and a couple shelves where you could keep clothes out in the open - no closet.

Regarding the bed, I booked a queen bed but that's not what I got. My room (119) had a queen platform but there was a full size mattress on top of the platform. Since I sleep on the mattress, not the platform, I considered this to be a full size bed. To me this is misleading at least, or more plainly it's false advertising.

The climate control box was ancient. It had an on/off switch and low/medium/high for fan speed, but for temperature there was just a manual slider that you could move from warm to cool. The scale had no numbers, just dots. It looked like something from the 1970's. It wasn't a thermostat because it didn't automatically shut off or on when the temperature in the room reached any particular setting.

Pro's:
very close to downtown
clean
plenty of parking

Con's:
very little in the room
rooms with microwave, fridge, or both are all booked at different rates so be careful to book exactly what you want in the room
cooling/heating system could use a serious upgrade

Parking was fine. Local police were called 2 days in a row. The first time for an altercation which didn't affect me but they knocked on my door to ask if I knew anything going on. The next day because of a cracked out vagrant who was on property. They were jailed and left their personal items on the sidewalk. Other guests were questioning it and I was already going to the office to have it addressed and the front desk just basically dismissed it and said housekeeping would take care of it the morning. I also experienced 2 night where an upstairs guest was being heavy footed and sounded like they were moving furniture. I called the front desk 3 times but nothing was ever done about it.

Overall the experience was piss poor. The only benefit was the rate was cheap.
