The stay was very enjoyable and the staff are very accommodating. I think the general consensus was good vibes. This area of Palm Desert is the somewhat nicer downtown, though with slightly less character. Otherwise the food and people were all as enjoyable. We would absolutely stay here again.

We loved our stay at the Mod! I would say the only thing we didn’t like is that our presidential suite was the first one when you walked in and we had about 6 different random people slide open our doors and walk in to our room. Maybe some signs should be placed to avoid that in the future… but overall a good stay.

The pool was amazing and also the views of the mountains. It’s very modern and colorful. The staff was very courteous and helpful. It’s right next to El Paseo shopping center so we walk to Tommy Bahamas for Happy Hour It was wonderful.
