Amtrak Palm Springs Los Angeles recent customer reviews
I missed the bus as the Indian canyon pick-up busstop is non existent. I was waiting across the street at what was apparently the old stop in front of the demolished casino hotel. I tried to wave the bus down but it drove off. The amtrack ticket clearly stated casino hotel, that hotel was torn down two years ago. There is no sign where the new stop is located.
