Review of the Saguaro - A Joie de Vivre ...

One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. Not...

One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. Not only are the rooms old, the hotel seems to be trying to sadly upgrade by adding new paint, which there were signs everywhere indicating such. For the price they want to charge you truly might as well stay at a Motel 8 or Comfort Inn. I realize it's Palm Springs and things are expensive, however, if you're going to charge this kind of price, the room should be a lot nicer. The bed was hardly comfortable. I would say their pillows were the nicest thing about the stay. Their body and hair products, that are complimentary, are hardly a four-star Resort quality. They nickel-and-dime you for everything, literally. Not to mention, their restaurant, the Jefe, was at best average food. To add insult to injury for two soups some chips/guacamole dip and two small Margaritas, which I have to tell you where the WORST Margarita's I ever had in my entire life, I paid $77. They charge you $10 for a thing of chips. It's ridiculous! Not to mention, the hotel staff were not that great. I'm also not sure why I got charged $133 for my Resort fee when I only stayed two nights. I spent over $700 at this hotel, for two nights, one meal, and mediocre service. The room was decent as far as being clean, but I just was expecting more than an old looking room with new paint on it for the price I was paying. Anyhow, never again and it will take a while for the bitter taste of that meal charge to leave my mouth. So disheartened by the whole experience. Yuck!!!!
