King size Bed was very comfortable , kitchenette complete , we baked a cake and made cookies, walked at night in the solar lighted path with access from our porch, so request a room that faces the river/ path. Really ver was dry though, as we came in the Summer. The pool was nice and clean. There was a lap pool only for adults , which was nice to enjoy more peacefully. There is bingo and activities, but we did not participate because we were out hiking or taking naps to recover from them. Hotel is close to nice restaurants/ shopping in Palm Springs by car. 15 min drive. Also close to grocery shopping by car.

Great stay at a nice place

The entire family had a great time. The rooms were comfortable, the property was quiet yet family friendly and the area felt safe. We enjoyed our two-night stay but would have been very happy to spend an entire week there. Check in process was a little confusing because we arrived late, after the office closed, but the outdoor phone was very helpful and all the information we needed was in the envelope that was waiting for us. We would definitely stay there again.

Exceeded expectations!

This was the perfect place to stay for our family of five while visiting Palm Springs. Two bedroom unit was so roomy! Food, shops, gas everything was nearby. Stunning Mountain View’s, friendly staff, I could go on! The interior was slightly dated, but very clean. I hope not much changes about this place and it keeps being an affordable option. We will be back!

This is the third time we have stayed here. The furnishings are dated but beds are comfortable and having a full kitchen in a hotel is great! It is North of downtown but there are lots of restaurants around still and a bus stop 5 min away that can take you anywhere. The staff are super friendly and helpful! We will book again!
