Vagabond Motor Hotel
Stayed at the Vagabond for 4 nights. Checkin was quick & professional. Room was large with king bed & comfortable. There was a smell on entering the room which seemed to be from cleaning, maybe bleach, but it soon dissipated. Helpful to have a car to get to spots in Palm Springs. There are walkable dining options near the hotel. Plenty of free parking & pool/hot tub on site. Would recommend Vagabond Motor Hotel for a stay in Palm Springs
