The desk staff were friendly and helpful. The property has an older feel, but think Disney Tiki Room, and this is fine, compared to some of the spotless newer places that have no soul. We enjoyed our stay and our room seemed extra large.

Everything was adequate, if not a bit tired. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Felt the rates were a little too high for what you got.

The Tropics is a little gem off the beaten path of downtown. Although the property is dated it's clean and has great amenities (pool, restaurant, bar, gym). Very relaxing, friendly staff, and cute decor. Only complaint is that there was no microwave in the room. HIghly recommended.

I love staying here - it is very old school Tiki Palm Springs! The rooms are comfortable and clean, although could use some updating. The restaurants and bars have great selections and the staff is helpful. Small but practical fitness center. It would be nice if the breakfast restaurant would open at 8 every day instead of just on weekends.
