Cute small boutique hotel, adults only. Decorate it to make you feel like you are in Morocco. All the rooms surround the Hot Springs pool loved the 24 hour self service, tea, fireplace, and the plush robes. We just wished that the main pool was a little warmer so we could swim at night during wanter. It was fine for the day, but not quite warm enough for the nighttime winter swim. They do have a Jacuzzi that you can use for the night time. I’m sure it’s perfect in the warmer weather to swim in the big pool.
We liked everything we just wish that the main pool is warmer for nighttime swimming in the winter. I get it. It’s a hot spring and you can’t control the temperature, but I have been to other places that warm their Hot Springs in the winter.

This was our second time staying here. It is a unique spot. When you enter off the street, you are transported into a beautiful self-contained world. For an ideal visit, I would recommend blocking out some time to stay and hang out for a few hours in the outdoor courtyard and surroundings. The 24-hour access to the pools is a nice benefit. The staff are gracious and helpful.
It would be nice if the continental breakfast was available earlier. Coffee and tea are available very early, so that is not an issue. This is a very minor complaint.

The pool was fabulous, as was the hot tub. It was a lovely reprieve from the heat, and the courtyard was a nice surprise. This is a place that was built many years ago, is "dated" and more of an "inside courtyard motel." We love to stay at out of the way kitchy places. . . They have kept up the theme, and it was VERY clean, but is not fancy at all. It was a perfect location in Desert Hot Springs residential area and so quiet! Would have loved to try the spa services, but had less than 24 hours there. . . next time! :)
We had a lovely stay, and it was a good price - hope you continue to take care of it, and any deferred maintenance!

The owner greeted us with such joy and friendliness we felt instantly at home. The room was clean and comfortable; it is an older hotel and the historic vibe is right up our alley. The room looked right out into the courtyard and all the amenities were close and convenient. They had some trouble with storms the weekend before but all was cleaned up and the grounds were great. Quite the oasis in the desert. It was very close to Joshua Tree National Park, which was our main reason for staying at this hotel so we were very happy about that location. We needed an early start so the owner packed us a to go breakfast so we could leave in the wee hours. It was not hot when we stayed there so we have no opinion on how well the AC worked. The cool, fresh air was enough.

Beautifully decorated. I can imagine how much fun it must have been to gather all of the things that were used to turn this place into such a magical spot. Staff was super warm and friendly. We sadly couldn’t stay long enough to use the spa facilities.
Breakfast…if they put as much effort into breakfast as they do into the rest of the property it would truly be a 4 star experience!

The entire vibe was super relaxing. The pool areas is very clean and well maintained. The sauna, showers and rooms were too. The garden is lovely to lounge around in especially the hammock. The bed in the bedroom was like sleeping on a cloud. Maria, the masseuse, who gave me my 2 hour massage was excellent and explained everything very well before hand. The staff, Robert and Debbie, were both very lovely and extremely helpful.
As much as the moroccan bohemian theme is lovely and very relaxing, though it was a little disappointed by how worn the place looks with torn awnings and ripped covers on the outdoor lounger in the back garden. We encountered a couple who had been going to this inn for 10 years and they told us of the social activities the place had before Covid. We were sad those were discontinued as we would have loved to have participated in those as the evening are very long during the summertime.

We enjoyed the spa, hot springs pool, relaxing music in the public areas and the decor. I had a magnificent massage. The spa garden was beautiful. They have a large chess set outdoors on which my husband was able to demonstrate the rules of chess and some example moves. We had a wonderful time.
Nothing really.

The breakfast arrangements were very good. Well thought out and pleasurable. The supply of iced water, mint lemonade, tea and coffee through the day and night were very welcome and a nice touch. The swimming pool and hot pool were excellent and the supply of floats etc were also a thoughtful touch.
Some of the decor could be updated.

They did an amazing job with decor, so many great details. I loved the seating niche in the room! the room was comfortable.
I booked this thru booking.com not realizing that the room was on a second floor -- most of the small spa hotels in Desert Hot Springs are only 1 story so I didn't read carefully. I"m disabled and it was hard to get up and down the stairs. Because it was booked thru booking.com and not directly with the hotel, they couldn't change my room even though they had first floor rooms available.

Loved the decor. Loved the hot pool. Loved the spa sessions. It was a perfect 3 day holiday.
The breakfasts were adequate. I would have preferred a buffet. But this didn't detract from loving the place. We would definitely come back again.
