Pala Casino Spa And Resort

2/10 Terrible
"The room is old and the bed was uncomfortable pillow sizes like children pillows, I woke up the next morning with a neck pain, didn’t get any rest, the slots are tight I lose $2,428.00 , the food very expensive . Casino homeless begging for money I used to like Pala back in 2023-2024 totally went downhill. I’ll take my business elsewhere, better to drive a little farther to Palm Springs. Never again. I had to pay resort fee after all the money I spend , I asked if they can waive it they said “no” bye Pala you’ll n ver see me again."
