This place sucks! For the price you would think they would let you bring your own food or drinks to the pool area. They are super rude when they tell you that you can’t have food or drinks in the pool area and I even heard them threatening someone with the police all because they had a bag of chips. The pool is connected to a restaurant which they try to force you to buy alcohol drink there that are close to $20 a drink! The room was ok other than the toilet leaking at the bottom and the shower floor seemed to be cracked. Pay a little extra and get a better hotel cause this place is garbage and for the price you should be able to get something better.

Caliente is the hotel to stay when visiting Palm Springs.. Location is perfect and the ambiance make you feel like you on a tropical vacation in the desert… The pool is very relaxing and the Reef bar and restaurant are excellent for pool side lunch and tropical cocktails… We were upgraded to the “Tiki Parlor Room” which was so spacious and comfortable… I highly recommend!!!!!

Bartender seemed to have "an attitude" (maybe he was having a bad day?) so we took our drinks out to the pool area. Accommodations were clean and comfortable, however there is no table/chairs or desk to hold even a small laptop in the room.

Took over 24 hours for room to cool down. Ice maker not working so had to go to office with your bucket for ice. Lanai room was larger but don’t expect to relax in a weeded area with broken down furniture. Staff was not friendly at Reef restaurant but food was good. Mexican restaurant was great and staff was nice there. Pool was nice but facilities overall need to be updated and repaired. Kids weee screaming in pool until midnight when we were in there. Look out for pool police who won’t let you bring in your own food or drinks in. We made our drinks in room and put them in our hydros and we were fine. Shower faucet was broken and either went to extremely hot or lukewarm. Dispensers on wall shower were empty. Luckily I always use my own. Elmers down the street was about 3/4 mile walk but had a fabulous breakfast. Bootleggers was an awesome Tiki bar to go to as well as The Tonga Hut. Celebrated my hubby’s birthday with friends and he wanted a tiki getaway. Most likely won’t be back to this hotel unless they make many improvements.

The hotel is in a bad condition in general. Needs serious maintenance. The entrance door had gaps which allowed bugs to come into the room. The AC made a huge noise that made impossible to sleep. The bed sheets looked yellowish dirty, the covers were old and rugged. The smalll fridge didn’t work, neither did the land line. Very noisy too, it was the most horrendous stay I’ve ever had in my life. They charged $120 for a motel that should have probably charge $40 for the service and quality of the place. The power went off, and it was very hot, no where to charge electronics, for the whole morning. Never again!! Very low class hotel.
