This motel was built in the 1950's and has been fairly recently updated to include new baths, flat screen TVs and great beds. The location is on the outskirts of Cambria and within easy walking distance to restaurants, bars, grocery store and a great bakery. The property is extremely clean and the landscaping is beautifully kept. The rooms are a... More

Using Groupon coupon we got a two nights lodging. The lady I talked to to make the reservations was very nice and professional. When we arrived the desk clerk asigned us the room in the back. I asked about making reservations at a local restuarant which he agreed was a good idea. When we entered the room the first item... More

We got a great deal for a 2 night stay, so the price was right. The property has gone through a remodel, but it could still use a little more help. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable; but the rest of the furnishings were old and tired. The grounds have some very nice landscaped areas, with a... More

This is a very old hotel that has been upgraded. Regrettable its still one of those places you can here noises from your neighbors rooms and you hear when they open their front door and when there is activity in the parking lot. I thought the bed was very comfy. They have a view of hills from the back of... More

We liked this place. The rooms are nicely done, the management has done a lot of upgrading recently. So the showers and beds are quite nice. And there's free Wifi which is great. The place is about four blocks from the shops and art places in East Cambria so getting around is easy. And the folks at the front desk... More

We booked a room back in October for Presidents Day. The week before our trip they called and said they need to cancel our reservation due to bathroom remodelling. Elisabeth was not very friendly, and could not give us another room. 4 months in advance would pretty much guarantee you a room, right? Wrong! Or maybe was the groupon?!? Anyway,... More

We appreciate the honesty with your review. Unfortunately, the task of remodeling took longer than planned as our contractor experienced the passing of a family member and had a temporary leave of absence. This leave of absence unexpectedly postponed the completion of our remodeling. Additionally, we had a group staying with us filling up the motel, otherwise we could’ve had... More

A quiet and comfortable room under a humble facade. It was within walking distance to many restaurants, and the grounds were kept up nicely. The front desk seemed friendly, and check in was easy. The rate was a bit high for the place, because we stayed the week after Christmas, but we were happy with the room.

We discovered this motel from a groupon special and found it to our likening, nice but small room. Location was within walking distance to downtown and was quiet. We never heard the people in the room next to us. Very frendly desk clerk. We would stay again.

We went to the Palms because I had a great coupon, I was pleased with what we got for what we paid, but wouldn't have been happy if I paid full price. The first thing that crossed my mind when we arrived was that the person who did their website did a GREAT job. The grounds and room were a... More

We stayed here for one night only in September 2011. The room was clean and very basic. It was perfectly acceptable for the money. The bathroom was a little worse, the cupboard has been water damaged, but the shower was good. My biggest disappointment, after reading other reviews, was that the fire pit was not lit. I was looking forward... More
