I've stayed at Palomar twice. The first time was about three winters ago and the second time was just last winter. Both times were on my way home to
the U.S. I stayed the first time because ... well, I just had to know. One of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in. My room was very run down. No
hot water and of course no reception for the tiny old TV. It's the kind of place where you don't sleep well because you feel icky.
The second time was not planned. I was hoping to stay at Hotel Paraiso Colonet, but it was mid-week, so the manager had a sign with a phone number to
call if you wanted a room. I don't have phone service so I couldn't get a room. So my last option was Palomar. It was just as bad as I remembered.
Complete dive. The food in the restaurant is okay. But the place is pretty worn. Too many dusty trinkets strewn around. I'm not a picky person but
that entire operation is pretty gross. Next time, I will sleep in the cab of my truck. |
