The rooms inside have old furniture and the sink clogged up every time we opened the faucet. Not worth the stay for the price. The main guy in the front was very friendly though. ##### George Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yuchun May 2, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### For Coachella The hotel (or motel) was really nice and even allowed us to check in two hours early, which gave me time to prepare for the Coachella event. The air conditioner was a bit loud, but after a fun night out, it didn’t bother me much. We did see a cockroach in the bathroom, which might be due to the ground floor location—understandable, but I hope that can be improved in the future. The best part is the location—it’s super close to the Coachella venue with no traffic issues, and I loved how convenient it was to park right outside the room. Overall, I really liked the stay and would definitely consider coming back next time I go to Coachella. ##### Yuchun Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Pedro Jan 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness They made check out 10 am All hotel regular time 11amor 12 ##### Pedro ### 2/10 Terrible #### Norio Nov 10, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It is a 100 years old motel There is no phone in the room Room service was bad ##### Norio ### 2/10 Terrible #### Paulino Nov 18, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ruta Motel Have been a member of Hotels.com for many years, this is the worst place I've ever stayed.

We did end up paying only 70$ with my debit and proceeded to the room— unpacked—showered and went to rest. That’s when we realized there were cockroaches in the bathroom— in the shower, crawling up the toilet while I was literally on it, on the floor... Then going into the room I saw quite a few more— on the floor, the walls, even in my clothes. By now Im just disgusted I ran to the office to see what accommodations would be made for us. We asked to switch rooms and we were told there were NO extra rooms available... uhm ok, so I asked if they could accommodate a free room for the next night due to it being almost 2 AM, again we were told NO. They said they could only refund me RIGHT THEN AND THERE and we would have to leave right away...? I went back to see ifI could handle it, as we had nothing that would b attracting theses awful creatures.I was too afraid to sit in the bed in fear the bugs were in the sheets or covers as well. I saw MORE roaches! I went back and said LETS GO. Instead of refunding cash so I could take it to the next hotel in mind and get a room right away he refused & said ONLY refund it back to my debit, which meant I wasn’t seeing that money for a few days. I had to pack up QUICKLY —while manager stood right outside my room. It was past 3 AM leaving the hotel with ZERO accommodations. Only an inaccessible refund. Thanks. ##### Mariah Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Hamid Feb 23, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nasty & dirty. The place was not fitted with proper windows. So, it was extremely noisy from the road, the I-10 & freight trains running some 18 hrs./day. The worst nightmare were the cockroaches in the room, especially in the bathroom. I located at least 5 of them. When I wanted to show them to the manager / owner, he didn't want to see them & said I know, I know. I'm trying to include a few photos of the wildlife in the room, dead & alive. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AE1A03E0253D158206AFA61DE0F296230C3A96C11582477435716.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/61C74DE3658E732B1C738C92DF0CCEC0A0B2757F1582477477981.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F18D769E0BBA5006DCCFB11D9768F056971748591582477510205.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Hamid Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### S Feb 22, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Looks like it would be loud and unsure but it’s the exact opposite... quiet and no problems .. everyone around respects each other’s space ##### S Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 1, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Friendly staff. chatted with the owner for a few minutes and he wanted to make sure we were as comfortable as possible during the stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patty Apr 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The owner was friendly and helpful.

Save yourself the troble. I did not stay at the Ruta. It was a dive. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Feb 19, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities There was an over powering stench of cheap cleaning chemicals in the office when we checked in and in the room. There was no screen or lock on the bathroom window. The heater/AC unit was too loud to use, we would not have been able to sleep with it on. Easily the worst hotel I have ever stayed at, especially at this price. Even at half the price I paid I would have felt cheated. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Whitney, CT Nov 7, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort My sister and I needed a place to stay and we found RUDA online. Good rates. we loved the place and service and hated to leave. I would recommend to anyone. Staff is very nice met all our needs. thank you ##### Whitney Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Apr 23, 2018 We needed a last minute place to stay for Coachella and this was the "cheapest". It's a motel. So don't expect anything amazing. But the AC worked well, they had hot and cold water, the bed was fine, it had cable, parking, a fridge and a microwave... so it was fine. We did find a small dead cockroach in the bathroom one day and the closet is kinda sketch. If you're staying here I think you should not expect a super nice/pretty hotel. I mean, it's a tiny motel in Indio? So I'd stay there again if I had too. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Mar 20, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Room condition and night trains The railway tracks are close to the motel. The trains are really loud and the bed vibrated every time the trains were coming. No sleep possible during the night. The condition of the whole room is not acceptable, it looks dirty and damaged. The room door and its door lock provides an uncertain feeling to survive the night. Even if had to pay only 10US$ I would not stay there again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 15, 2025 Liked: Staff & service ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas I](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-I.h661796.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Palm-Desert.h10190.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas II](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-II.h57218.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embarc-Palm-Desert.h328421.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Two-Bunch-Palms-Spa-Resort-Adults-Only.h1338988.Hotel-Information) > > [Fantasy Springs Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Fantasy-Springs-Resort-Casino.h1138282.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa, Indian Wells](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Renaissance-Esmeralda-Resort-Spa.h12274.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton-Bacara.h523758.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h23876.Hotel-Information) > > [Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Miramonte-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16768.Hotel-Information) > > [Indian Wells Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Indian-Wells-Resort-Hotel.h14026.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Golf-Resort-Spa.h4124.Hotel-Information) > > [ The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Villas for COACHELLA 2020 (1st weekend)](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Cochella-Stay-At-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Resort-Villas.h34078793.Hotel-Information) > > [SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-SeaCrest-OceanFront-Hotel.h1365352.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge II- The Enclaves](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge-II-The-Enclaves.h902047.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn By Marriott Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Palm-Desert.h201084.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Palm Desert Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Palm-Desert-Resort.h890044.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sandman Santa Rosa Sonoma, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-The-Sandman.h919721.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Golf Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Golf-Resort-Palm-Springs.h351.Hotel-Information) > > [V Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-V.h13065796.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > > [Desert Breezes Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Desert-Breezes-Resort.h18709.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Mountain Inn Nude Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Sea-Mountain-Inn-Nude-Resort-Adults-Only.h27490625.Hotel-Information)
