The bathroom is equally nice, including a large walk-in shower with a combination shower head plus wand. San Jacinto to the south, an excellent landscape to work by. There’s even a Google Nest speaker by the bed to provide access to hotel services, Bluetooth speaker, etc. There is a direct HDMI port to the TV mounted in the wall, and plenty of USB charging ports throughout the room. The bed is great, and there’s an excellent workspace, with a massive 65″ LG flat screen TV mounted above. The hotel rooms at Morongo are generous, well-appointed, and comfortable. I need my hotel rooms to be comfortable and functional. Because I have many moving parts in my life, not least writing for this august website, I sit at a desk typing more than I sit in poker room chairs. You gotta sleep somewhereīefore we get to the poker room, let’s have a look at the hotel. Not that I’ve ever gotten peckish at 1:30am in the middle of a long poker session.

The poker building has only a single diner-like restaurant which has sit-down service until 10:00pm and takeout until midnight.

The hotel has all the features you’d want in a casino resort. This is crucial because the hotel amenities are not near the poker room. Fortunately, they run a 24-hour shuttle between the two buildings. It’s a 5-10 minute walk from the main hotel building to the poker room building – a trip you wouldn’t want to do in summer heat, evening winds, or at night. The poker room, I need to emphasize, is in a separate building, which also houses a large bowling alley. I remember when Morongo was mostly a glorified bingo hall, but it now features a modern 27-story hotel and full casino downstairs. Cabezon is a wide place in the road, dominated by the Morongo Resort, but there are a few chain food and retail stores. The view from PSP baggage claimĬasino Morongo is hard by I-10 in Cabezon – an easy half-hour drive from PSP. The sky was an eye-searing blue, and the mountains came right to the edge of the baggage claim area. I’ll get to Agua Caliente in a subsequent report – for now, let’s head out out to Morongo.Īrriving into PSP on a crisp fall morning–when the legendary summer heat had subsided–was a great start. Both are served by the Palm Springs airport (PSP), which has non-stop service from destinations across the United States and Canada. I hadn’t been to the Palm Springs area in too many years and was itching to try out Casino Morongo and Agua Caliente. I promised you poker room reviews – let’s get started.
