Room, location, and staff were lovely. We were disappointed that the hot tub was under construction. Also, a fire pit would be a nice addition. We recommend Desert Hills overall.

Great service

I stayed in Palm Springs for my trip to see Joshua Tree National Park. It’s a small drive to the park but cool place to stay. Great service and location. Easy walking to restaurants and shops downtown but far enough away to be quiet for sleeping. I would stay here again.
