The room was dirty. I never received room service to provide more towels or empty the trash for the entire 4 days we stayed. The location is not in a great area, which I understand I get what I pay for but there was people constantly getting high or blasting music making it hard to sleep.
Only positive was it is located close to the freeway and several fast food locations.

Be aware—this property feels more like apartment-style living than a traditional hotel.

The neighborhood did not feel very safe, and it was clear that many people staying here are long-term residents. You’ll see kids, teens, and adults hanging around outside as if it’s their permanent home. In the morning, we were woken up by loud music, and at night you can hear people socializing right outside their rooms.

The pool also seemed to be used mostly by long-term residents rather than short-term hotel guests.

Unfortunately, the rooms were not very clean. The chairs were heavily stained, which made the space feel poorly maintained.

Another issue was the bathroom—there’s no fan, so it gets very steamy. You can see signs of wear on the metal fixtures and hangers because of the moisture. Opening the bathroom window for ventilation wasn’t ideal either, as it looks out onto trailers.

It’s unfortunate because the property seems neglected in terms of maintenance and basic hotel upkeep.

That said, the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful, which was a positive.

Overall, we would not return.

Overal our stay was ok, however, we thought the rate we were given was all we hadbto pay. We were surprised with a deposit we were not counting on, and were told a refund of said deposit would take several days after our check out.

This was my second stay at Palmeras. Had a great experience last time, so I booked again. Location close to Sweetwater Park and Westfield Plaza Bonita Mall. Room 145 with accessibility. Door sign "Do Not Disturb" is always appreciated. Window had shutters instead of mural shade, which was good for night light. Fridge and microwave were relocated in the bathroom, cutting down on white noise in the middle of the night. Handheld shower was nice. Single knob for water was difficult to shut off, so it dripped. Hot water was almost instant. Hair dryer didn't work, unfortunately, but I brought mine. Toiletries included: shampoo and conditioner, body wash, hand soap, and lotion. Towels and bed sheets were white and smelled clean. Complimentary coffee: only 1 included, which was nice for the morning I had to pack up. A staff came over to give me a courtesy knock about checking out. Overall, a comfortable stay.

We did not end up staying here.

At first glance the room looked fine, but the closer we looked, the worse it became. Furniture and chairs were visibly stained, there was debris left in the bathroom, fixtures felt worn or loose, and multiple maintenance issues were noticeable. It quickly became clear the room had not been properly deep cleaned.

There were burn marks on the bathroom door and other surfaces that appeared to have been painted over rather than properly repaired or replaced, which felt like an attempt to cover damage instead of fixing it.

There was also a strong artificial fragrance/chemical smell throughout the room, like odors were being masked rather than properly treated. It seemed like heavy scents were being used to hide underlying smells instead of proper ventilation or proper odor removal, which was uncomfortable and concerning.

The overall property felt unsafe, with questionable activity around the area, and we did not feel comfortable staying the night. We left immediately and did not use the room.

We were told we would receive a full refund since we did not stay, but only the deposit was returned.

The online photos did not accurately reflect the current condition of the property. I would not recommend staying here.

The staff were very rude, awkward and disrespectful..the way they talk and act is very unprofessional ..I had no privacy whatsoever, 2 different employees disturbed my peace by knocking on my door. One of those times was at 3 am while I was sleeping. I had the worst experience ever. I was playing music at a very minimum volume on Saturday at 4:00 pm and I was given a warning because supposedly the music was too loud. At the 3rd day when I checked out they deducted $25 for late fee from the day before, but my payment wasn’t late becthe the front desk lady had given me a verbal opportunity to pay as soon as I fixed my card payment issue. To top it off they put me on the Do Not Rent list. I did nothing wrong and I don’t think it’s fair I was treated with poor customer service. They evaded my privacy and they harassed me about a lot of things that aren’t true.

I had originally booked just Friday night, but wanted to add Saturday night to avoid a 3 hour late night drive after a long day. I made a mistake booking the second night, and has to reach out to my booking agency to resolve that issue. Once I had verified with my agent, I went down down to verify it with the front desk. They assured me i had the same room for both nights. Went i returned to the hotel around 8 pm i found my key didn’t work and lights on in the room. The front desk confirmed they had rented my room out, saying my booking agents canceled it. They had no other rooms forcing me to have to drive 3 hours home after a very long day.

I had a reservation for tonight. I arrived at 3 PM to check in time to find out that they had canceled my reservation because they needed rooms. What in the world is the point in having a reservation? The lady was kind of rude about it stating simply they were sold out and needed the rooms and that supposedly someone tried to call me earlier in the day to see if I still wanted my reservation, which not only did I not receive any calls, but is certainly not the standard in the hotel industry to call someone while they’re traveling and ask if they still want their reservation that they made. They argued back-and-forth a few times ultimately, she gave me a room for the price that I was originally booked for, but I wouldn’t stay here again based solely on that interaction & apparent policy regarding reservations

We were able to park right in front of our room. The three employees we met as we were checking in were extremely helpful and patient with us. They could see we were having some difficulty with a gift card and let us know we had plenty of time to figure it out and to let them know when we were ready to check in. If it wasn't for their great customer service, I most likely would have left. The room did need a little bit of TLC which we were not concerned with. The bed was very clean and comfortable. Loved that the bathroom had body lotion and liquid hand soap not those little ugly bar soaps like the majority of the hotels have. And the big bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the shower? Good Job!!! Yes ! I will stay there again . Yes! I would recommend this hotel. My review is making me want to go back again. Thank you ladies for being so helpful. Greatly appreciated.
