Do you by any chance work for them or own it? Considering you have 4 posts and 3 of them are reposts advertising this house?

No, I have no financial gain in posting it. I live in this area. I re-posted it as people are asking about places to stay.

I've read through this whole Thread including the Villa vs. Hotel discussion. What wasn't much discussed is the many cheap Motels/Hotels within minutes walking distance of Chabad, I was wondering if anyone has more info on any of them (See Photos).
To be More clear, I'm traveling on a tight budget (just me and my wife) and want to be Friday & Shabbos in PS, the cheapest Villa's are about $300 per night and have a 3 night min stay. A quick search on Orbitz gives me many cheap hotels, One example The Curve Palm Spring is a 3 Star Hotel for $65 a night (after applying promo code).

I hope I'm not violating the forum rules but I'll try one more time, does anyone have info/reviews on any of the cheap hotels near Chabad of PS? Specifically The Curve Palm Spring but any other one will be useful. Thank you

Just for Shabbos. I believe it's a better place to Spend the Shabbos than LA. I can take the Aerial Tramway Friday Morning then enjoy the Outdoors (air, scenic) over Shabbos.

I'm quoting from my Previous post, "the cheapest Villa's are about $300 per night and have a 3 night min stay. A quick search on Orbitz gives me many cheap hotels, One example The Curve Palm Spring is a 3 Star Hotel for $65 a night"
This whole discussion (Hotel vs. Villa) was here b4, my question is if anyone knows anything on these hotels.
