The vibe was cute but quiet hours from 10pm to 9am when people need to get ready for work is wild. If you like zero frills and just need a bed (and not a very good one)? It'll do, but wasn’t really worth it to me. The parking was terrible as well.
My stay at The Agave Inn was very nice. The room was clean and tidy. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel is located in a nice neighborhood, with amenities in walking distance.
I loved the “Palm Springs retro vibe.” It was well-appointed, clean and nicely decorated without too much fuss. I prefer properties like this as opposed to the huge corporate hotels!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Centrally located. Super nice / friendly staff. Only instant coffee available - ewww. Bed was lumpy. Parking area is really small. Cars hot-rod on this Street.
The actual hotel was a wonderful stay very convenient. Very Park on the other side of the street dog park, etc. The only downside was parking was very small and you had to move your car if you parked in the other property around the hotel by 8:00 AM.
Its a cute cozy place to stay. Checking in/out is easy. The room was clean & comfortable. The bed and pillows were comfortable as well. Hiwever, if you're a light sleeper this may not be the place for you. Although you cannot hear your neighbors, you can definitely hear the street. I always travel with my sleep ear plugs so that helped out. I liked the nearby eatery options all within walking distance and having a mini fridge was nice. Parking is limited, but there are nearby options if needed. Overall, when I visit again I would stay there.
It was a cute and cozy stay. The bed and sheets were very comfy. Everything you need for a stay. It was very clean, which we appreciated. However, our room was closer to the street, and you could hear the cars going by sometimes which could be really annoying to some people.
