This little motel is a throwback to the 1950s, with about a dozen rooms and a nicely planted garden. It's not fancy at all, but it's clean and the rooms are spacious. It appears to be family run (though I'm not sure), but the people who staff the front desk are friendly and helpful. We've stayed here many times because it's close to family and it's not expensive for a multiple-night stay. This place could be spruced up into a true 1950s gem (the great old neon sign apparently blew down a year or two ago, for instance), but then the cost would go up. So take it as it is and imagine yourself on Route 66 in the days when it was the fastest road to Chicago. This isn't a Hyatt or even a Best Western, but it's a fine place to sleep.

The toilet ran continuously. We reported this, and hopefully this plumbing problem will be addressed for future guests. Probably 75-year-old plumbing.

The Palm Tropics is where I stay when visiting Glendora, CA. Its a classic Route 66 motel, not fancy, but clean and convenient, and I've always found the staff friendly. Historic downtown is a reasonable walk away through nice neighborhoods -- the entirety of the town and the San Gabriel Valley is easily accessible by car. The Hat, with excellent sandwiches, is right next door.

No breakfast served just coffee it was a great experience bed firm lots of pillows plump the way I like bathroom was a good size hot water comes out right away sink and shower wall /ac &heater works real well kept me warm the whole night highly recommend

Only the shower curtain

Beautiful property quiet safe the grounds are covered in palms and California fauna there was carport paring right by my door The room was recently redone. Nice parquet floors tile shower new beds air conditioner worked great nice large room 2 queens. A table for two in the room. Big closet if you were staying awhile

I liked the location for us. Everything was well maintained, the buildings and the landscape. I liked how an old motor motel looked so appealing.

It could use some interior upgrades but all and all it was pretty nice.

very clean and easy to get around

The shower needs a bath matt because the shower was very slipper to a take a shower becasuse it very easy to slip and fall

A classic Route 66 motel that is small. Room could be kept dark at night and was relatively quiet. Good parking. Choices of restaurants within walking distance (we had sushi).

There was some trash on the grounds.

There was a beautiful grass area in the middle, would have been nice to have a picnic area out there.

we only had 2 towels and 1 wash cloth for 2 people, and no blanket

The property was adorable, the flora was beautiful and smelled wonderful. The room was clean, the air conditioner worked and I didn’t expect it to have a fridge and a microwave but it did! You get a perfectly lovely room in a cute location for a great price.

The location was perfect for my event in downtown Glendora. A vintage Route 66 motel with bungalows in a garden setting. I had room in the back which was quiet. The room was also large with a nice size bathroom. The building exterior was in pretty good shape for the age and building size. Staff lives onsite and has a posted no visitor policy which kept in and out traffic low. I stayed 2 nights and slept well both nights. Car port parking next tor the room was nice too.
