Best Western Date Tree Hotel

Great location and seemed to be undercooked for the area. The property appears to be an older motel which has been rebranded and refurbished, but it's well done and fits the area. The room was large and well appointed, and the bathroom was nicely done with a tiled shower. My second floor room had a balcony, which was a welcome surprise.

My first room was just off the lobby and next to the breakfast area. I suspect it's not a bad room under normal conditions. This weekend, however, Indio was hosting a huge youth soccer tournament and several teams had booked in at the hotel. They decided to use the breakfast area as their staging/meeting/eating area, which made the room louder than I was comfortable with. It took less than 5 minutes at the front desk and they reassigned me to a comparable room in a different building. No fuss no muss and I was on my way. While I wasn't happy with the way the other occupants were using the property, the staff was quick to address my concerns and make me a happy customer.

The king-size bedroom was nice and spacious. Great breakfast with various items to choose from. The outdoor swimming pool is heated which is enjoyable on a cool December evening.

I think the main thing is that the hotel doesn't have elevators. Although I was offered a room downstairs, I chose the one on the second floor because it had a comfy sofa chair and ottoman/footrest where I could sit and read before going to bed. I would stay again.

Location wasn't hard to navigate, and close to friends we were visiting. The breakfast options were good. Parking was convenient to the room. Ice machine was close by (though it was quite loud and we could hear whenever people got ice, but the hotel wasn't crowded so it was tolerable). Staff was pleasant.

No freezer in the mini-fridge so we couldn't re-freeze our ice packs and had to use ice from the machine (which we were trying to avoid due to drought conditions).

I loved how there was free breakfast and the pools were open 24 hours. Usually we would have to rush our time to go to the pool but we would go at 2am and it was nice.

I wish the breakfast times would be a little bit later because we like to sleep in but I know that the times are the same at every hotel. There is nothing else that I don’t like about my stay

1) Although we didn’t use it, the pool was heated. 2) The breakfast was very good. We were pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t just cold cereal and rolls. We had eggs, oatmeal, potatoes, waffles and apples.

No elevator in our building. Yes, we are capable of using the stairs but an elevator would have been nice when you are loaded down with your bags

the hotel is a simple place on the main road … basic and convenient. there are 2 great things about it: 1. Jacob at the reception- so nice and friendly and made me smile and welcomed ♥️ 2. great hot tub - so nice after a long hike

Staff helpful and the pool was open 24 hours, except they did maintenance on it exactly when we would’ve like to use it in the morning before the weather got too hot.

Things were a little worn, like the bath tub basin had a huge worn patch, but still clean.

The pool was open 24/24 free use, the air condtioning was everywhere (to escape 200+ heat) and the breakfast started at 5 am so we could make it to Joshua Tree early

Breakfast was great-lots of choices. Bacon and eggs-yum! The grounds are beautiful and the rooms are well off the highway, Pool is amazing. Hot tub too! Room was clean, spacious and comfortable. This is our 4th stay here and we hope to return.

just the price-wish it wasn't as high.

Super friendly staff! 😃😃 I overslept and missed the breakfast, but the bacon smelled GREAT!!! I really appreciated the security measures at this hotel ... Nice touch by making the exterior doors accessible only with a room key.
