Top Southern California Hotel Reviews

Desert Palms Hotel & Suites

Desert Palms Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Hotel room was clean and comfortable. Wi-fi and water pressure were good. Housekeeping leaves towels folded into an elephant on your bed, which is a cute touch. Complimentary breakfast is very good. Besides the usual cereal (fruit loops, cornflakes, instant oatmeal, raisin bran) and toast, there are muffins and waffles (make your own). A hot bar features 3 items, like eggs, potatoes, and sausage. They do rotate the hot bar, so it may be omelettes on one day and scrambled eggs the next. There are also items in ice, such as cottage cheese, canned fruit cocktail, pineapple chunks, and salsa. They have vanilla yogurt but no plain. Apples, bananas, juices, coffee, tea. The staff keeps the dining tables clean. There is an adjacent food-court type restaurant, with lots of options like burgers, salads, pizza, etc., which is convenient. Overall we had a great stay and will return here for our next Disney vacay."
