Palm Tree Inn Porterville

This is not a place that you would take your family. Prostitution was found to be doing business there.

Been ages since water in
pool.

I wish I could give this place -29 stars, it was the absolute worst place I have Ever been in and I will NEVER recommend it to people, I actually recommend sleeping under a bridge before I recommend sleeping in this "inn." The owner was atrociously rude, charged us extra for one of the worst rooms they had because of our age (he thought we were going to trash the room when we Always make sure to leave it cleaner than when we found it) and the practice of putting down basically a security deposit of 35$+ or leaving my personal government issued ID at the front desk as collateral to call the cops or pay for damages in case you "trash the room" is absolutely dysfunctional! When we got to our room and he finally stopped hovering over us we noticed that there were mystery stains on the bedspread, extra-wide armchair (semen on the chair for sure, didn't touch it at all) floor, the walls and headboard, and the ceiling. Then we opened the fridge. There were cockroaches dead and alive in it, the bathroom window wouldn't shut all the way, the walls are moldy, the curtains were disgusting, the tv was coated with dust. At night we finally got to notice that the door frame had holes in it, and we could see light from outside coming into the room. That and the top lock doesn't always work. Normally the lock wouldn't bother me and the attitude could be ignored of the owner, but at night you notice that there are drug dealings and fights going on right outside your door and hookers being pimped as people shoot up drugs and drink alcohol, that's a Giant NO to safety. Also we found out that most of them were staying there and had rooms that were larger and definitely nicer than ours. So at that moment we found out that drug attics were allowed nicer rooms than us just because we were a little younger was just it. I can't stand that place, my fiancee can't stand that place, and our two friends that were with us at that time cannot stand that place. 65$ for the worst room probably in California, never ever go here. Also the pool is empty and has been for years, as well as their attached restaurant being shut down for many years also. You'll have a better experience sleeping under a bridge or in a park with wild animals than you will here. Better yet stay at the motel six across the street (it was too expensive the night we stayed at the Palm tree inn) but the inn makes motel six looks like a five star hotel. I hope someone condemns that place soon, so maybe someone worthy can come in and bring it back up to par with being the old Paul Bunyan with a nice pool and restaurant.
The pictures lie and the pool hasn't had water in it since 2002
