I have fond memories of past stays here. I was looking forward to the stay. However, this stay was very disappointing. My sisters and I had two rooms. Both had strong musty odors. Room 3 had a jammed lock. We had to open the window , lift the screen so my sister could hand her room key out the window so the door to the room could be unlocked from the outside. Upon arrival, we found the key in an envelope at the front desk, as instructed in the welcome. However, a young woman was busy at the reception area. She did not greet us. Odd. We were told the rooms would have bottle openers . Neither room had one. We had to go to the front desk twice to get one. The first inquiry we were told to “check the room”. Again , not good customer service. It felt like our stay was an inconvenience. Overall, the place felt in poor condition. But the pool was great. This was not enough to bring me back.…

Response from David Leibert, Owner at Palms at Indian Head
Responded Oct 21, 2020
I'm very sorry you did not enjoy your stay. Please note we are currently upgrading those rooms with all new carpeting, paint, furniture and doors. They are almost completed. We'll have photos posted soon. Also, I do remember greeting you as I actually walked out of the office, greeted you and asked if you needed any help with check-in or finding your room. Yes the bottle openers should be in the room. You are right, we should've followed you up to your room and checked the room ourselves. We'll be sure to do that next time. My bad.

If you're a lap swimmer who seeks the peace and quiet of the desert, this is the place for you. I've been staying at The Palms since the late 1990s. The mid-century modern architecture and summer desert setting are an aesthetic pleasure. There is a beautiful, well-maintained, 25-yard lap pool. In the summer, the water temp hovers around 84 degrees, and never any crowded lanes. In the evenings, sit by the pool and watch the stars come out.

We went to Borrego Springs as a "maybe we'll stay for the night" We are so happy we did. This is a place worth visiting and staying if only for one night. We may even go back next year. It's the peacefulness of the desert that gets you. The quiet of the night. Everyone at the Palms is so friendly and accommodating. and casual. Folders with keys and names were left at the front desk for newly arrived guests if no one was there at check in. We had an end room that was very large. There were 2 choices -- one was renovated and the other not, We chose the $20 cheaper option which we liked more than the updated room.We were on our way to Palm Springs and this place is like what Palm Springs may have been long ago. The hotel is mid century modern. Yes it can use some TLC but it gets A for atmosphere from us. The food at the restaurant was delicious.…

I’ve stayed at better and worse in Borrego Springs, but the bottom line is I loved the vibe here and it was a great value. Just needs a little TLC and it could be great. My new favorite. We will be back.

This is for someone in to architecture and modern design this place his fantastic. Top it off with an amazing kitchen and bar and this is paradise Anza. Oh, there's a hot tub and pool too. Seriously, I don't want to review this place because it'll possibly help send more people there and ...well...it really is worth it.
