Musicland Hotel

We chose to stay at Musicland because it was close to the airport and we had a six AM plane to catch. The owner and his daughter could not have been more helpful. They printed out our tickets and made sure we had our transportation for the following morning planned out.

We visited Palm Springs for Modernism Week, and it seemed fitting to stay in a midcentury motel. The price was reasonable, and the room, while quite austere, was very clean, had been recently renovated and featured a Phillipe Starck Kartell chair. The wooden plantation shutters allowed a view of the mountains while providing privacy.The location was convenient.

If you’re just looking for a place to sleep and shower, this is a good place. It’s a bit dated and the decor is mismatched styles. The spa and pool were decent and parking is limited.

Do yourself a favor and spend your money somewhere else. Couldn’t get the cable on the TV to work, smoke detector was covered in plastic, floors were very creaky, outdated, shower knob was broken.

Pictures from the website were not a true representation of the hotel. The hotel was not very clean, no lamps, the heat/ac was extremely outdated and very loud, the bathroom sink was too small to even wash your hands, there was still ice cream in the freezer from prior guests, the floor needed swept, headboard to the bed was loose and moved around, the painting in the room was incomplete and where it was painted it appeared that a small child could’ve done a better job. All in all, a very disappointing experience. Unfortunately I don’t have any photos.
