The Saguaro Palm Springs

Nice hotel and pool area is very nice. Felt a lack of privacy in my room at night as I was on first floor and the curtains did not provide enough privacy from outside. Had to turn lights off otherwise anyone walking by could clearly see us. Also, this hotel is sneaky and will charge you an amenity fee at checkout. So if book with a third party, be aware of this sneaky tactic.

Nice amenities. Restaurant is excellent. Pool area is nice. Fun for a girls weekend.

If you are booking a hotel based on room amenities…look elsewhere. Our room had obvious evidence of water intrusion on the ceiling from the wall a/c unit.

Also first hotel where I’ve stayed at where you put the do not disturb sign on the door and they tap on your door at 9am to bring you keurig coffee pods? Don’t remember asking for that.

Overall, they could frankly just do better.

An instagrammable hotel. The rooms leave a bit to be desired but good pool scene. A nice alternative to the ACE and a bit cheaper.

The saguaro has the potential to be a great hotel but with every great feature it has there seems to be a catch.

The rooms themselves are nicely decorated and well cleaned. However the room keys to enter the room are almost impossible to use. We tried going through a door and after many tries had to reset the key at the front desk. They said that it was very sensitive and cannot be near wallets or phones. However despite that we were never actually able to open that door and always had to use a door from a different direction to access the hallway with our room.

The pool at first glance looks really nice and it is fun to use however the water is super highly chlorinated. Also the pool are has many wet and dirty towels laying as well as old drinks giving the impression. That the pool doesn’t get cleaned much. In addition we had to scavenge for towels and couldn’t find any clean towels available.

The saguaro offers really great all around room service but automatically charges a 5 dollar room service fee and then additionally charges you a 22 percent tip fee despite this being room service and not having a waiter.

The saguaro also offer bikes however their are no bike trails and the bikes would be useless downtown.

All in all the saguaro has some great features but really needs fix take care of some small flaws.
