My stay at The Palms

I return to the Palms every year. In my opinion it's the nicest motel on the strip. Pool is heated.

It was clean and right on the strip. Beds were comfortable and water pressure in shower was strong. We could walk to everything on the strip. Staff was friendly. The only thing I didnt like was that, you could hear the next room's tv or snoring etc.

This is an old school hotel which has been updated. They take a lot of care in cleaning. Small rooms and a nice, CLEAN pool. Pool and rooms are on the smaller side but we basically just slept there. Would stay here again

Perfect!

The hotel was in a great locations, peacefully hidden away from the main drag. The rooms were cozy with everything you need if you just want to be there to sleep and not spend your time inside. The pool was a great retreat from the hot summer sun. The pool could use a cleaning but I believe it was because we stayed at the end of a holiday weekend! Can’t wait to go back!

Great location. Thats the best part of the stay

The location was great. The sign said to leave the water run 3to 5 minutes so the hot water could make it to your room. There was so much humidity in the room the your clothes always felt damp.

I left a text message that I would arrive late in the night due to traffic. When I arrived and used the code they sent me there was a man in the cottage. Needless to say I could not stay ended up sleeping in my car at a gas station. Hopefully they refund my money and send an apology.
