The staff was very nice and helpful. The room was good with the exception of no luggage rack and no dresser/drawers to put our cloths. AC was a bit difficult to control and the light over the door was out. There are no room keys, just combination locks, so was tough to see the combo without a light. Overall, we were very happy with our stay and the location was ideal for the function we attended.

The location was good (close to the downtown) and the place itself was also nice. The staffs were very friendly and kind. The room was clean and the pool wasn't crowded at all. I'm satisfied with everything except for the noise. When water is in use in my room or any other rooms close to mine, it was quite noisy.

I would rate this place as just OK. You could tell it had been renovated but was not being maintained as well as it should. There were so many chipped, scuffed and dirty spots on the walls of our rooms I didn’t understand why they hadn’t been touched up. The color the rooms are painted is literally the color of Calamine Lotion, if you know what that is. I mean the whole thing, doors, facings, ceilings…all of it. Not really a super pleasing color and made it feel dated. The color also made the room feel very dark. The beds were a bit squishy for me but ok. The desk and nightstand in our room both were very stained on the tops of them. Looked like old furniture put into a sort of updated room. You could tell they definitely updated the tub and tile in the bathroom which were both very nice. Too bad it didn’t have an open glass divider in the tub versus the shower curtain as that made the Calamine Lotion color bathroom darker while showering. Finally, the room and the lobby both had that, “this is an old hotel and we are trying to use something to mask that smell” kind of scent in the air. Room just had that weird smell to it and was not really pleasant. Could be so much better with just a few changes.

This hotel is conveniently located near restaurants, shopping centers, and other amenities. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the first-floor end unit was exceptionally quiet, thanks to the respectful behavior of the guests. It’s a very peaceful place to stay. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to use the pool. The morning coffee in the lobby is quite strong, though. 😊

The room was great, clean, and well maintained. The mattresses are too soft on the edges, it hard to put shoes on or just sit on the edge, even when you are seated properly.

Decent place but ac in room was so loud it was impossible to sleep. It sounded like an old school bus trying to start all night. It also was directed right on top of the bed so it felt like you were in a freezer. The only way to stop for some quiiet was to shut it off not ideal in palm springs. Other than thst the pla e is nice clean and staff nice..but need new quieter ac units for it to be worth it to stay.
