A possible substitute for the Beat Hotel?

Not Afraid · 02-28-2007, 08:17 PM

One of my clients turned me on to this place. It's just what the Doctor ordered to replace the Beat (if it is, in fact replacable). I've also called them about Coachells, but we'll see. If there is room, it will be a miracle.

I present The Desert Star Bungalows Palm Springs.

I think I've walked by this place. It looks very familiar.

But would we have the option of wearing clothing in our rooms?

So is the Beat Hotel officially defunct, never to revive again?

We don't know and they don't know. Things are up in the air at the moment. It may return - and I hope it does, but at this point it is non-operational.

What about bungalow #6? The "View Bungalows" only shows #1-5 & 7, but a pic of the amenities clearly shows a door marked 6. Curious.

I think we'd have to go for #4 so NM could grill.

Allowing for the disqualifier of never having been to the real Beat Hotel ... I must ask what in the world is beatnikish or swankified about this desert row of substandard motel rooms posing as "bungalows?"
