My daughter and her girlfriends stayed 2 nights. Check in was smooth and when she entered her room she saw a big roach on the carpet. Gross! Told her don’t worry I will write a review on this hotel. I’m going to reach out to the hotel and let them know. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel!

I couldn't find the staff when checking in. I called the number on the front desk and no answer. I just sat and waited. Employee eventually showed up. Toilet was broken in room and went back to lobby to report the handle was broken and couldn't flush it. Employee was gone again and no answer on the phone number on the counter to call when not staffed. Breakfast starts late at 7:30 and I was gone by then. I've stayed here many times and it's getting worse. Oh, hot tub is not very hot but pool was comfortable.

The hotel is cute, the neighborhood is so so. There is nothing close by but it was much less expensive than staying in Palm Springs and worked out well for us. We spent 1 day at the Tram and 1 day at the outlet malls. The pool and hot tub were great.

The staff are amazing. The renovations are wonderful. The property is quaint and small, and can transcend you back to a simpler time. Great place to just relax.

10/10

Onsen was a darling desert oasis in Spa City. From our home base of Onsen, we spent seven days exploring Joshua Tree national park and the state park Indian Canyon. After a long day of hiking, we returned to Onsen to enjoy its large mineral pool and enormous hot tub. (By the way, the mineral water is silky and buoyant. A nice surprise!) We also explored the adjacent neighborhood. Onsen suggested Deliciouso and Taste of India. The recommendations were on spot - both were culinary gems. Not enough could be said about the graciousness of the staff. We would highly recommend Onsen and only wish its location to Chicago!!

The property was very nice and the staff was as well. The area around the property is not so nice but the reception staff said they have security staff patrol the grounds overnight. The property is clean, the areas around the property have lots of garbage strewn everywhere.

It's a nice place in DHS. The pool and the hot tub are mineral water and were very refreshing. We enjoyed a brief stay there and will return when we are in town next time.

Nice boutique hotel set up, but plumping and serious staff shortage are problems. I wish the pool and the jacuzzi temperatures were higher. Breakfast is very nice.
