I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming, the state of the rooms left much to be desired—both cleanliness and upkeep were issues. The grounds were beautiful though a bit dated, and there were some great amenities to enjoy. Overall, it seems the hotel could use some serious renovations to enhance the guest experience.

Overall, we had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were very clean and comfortable, with a nice bathroom. The pool area was a bit crowded during our visit, especially during spring break, and finding seating could be a challenge without reserving. However, the pool bar served delicious drinks and the dining options were mostly enjoyable, although breakfast could use some improvement. We had a great time, especially with the kids' activities available at the pool.

7.4/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The best part was the beautiful pool area, which was great for my kids, and the spacious grounds were really nice. However, the ongoing renovations, which included noise from construction, made it difficult for us to relax. Given the price we paid, I expected a bit more comfort in our room, especially since it felt somewhat dated. Overall, it had good potential, but there were definitely some areas that need improvement.

6.2/10

My experience at this hotel was rough. While the check-in process was quick, the overall cleanliness and service left a lot to be desired. The room had a few nice amenities like coffee and bath products, but the dated décor and noise from outside really detracted from my stay. Though the location was decent, I wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for a quality experience.

Richard

United States, August 2024

6.0/10

My stay was a bit of a mixed bag. The hotel really has potential with great views and friendly staff, but there were some significant issues in the rooms and cleanliness that can't be ignored. The service was helpful, but there were minor inconveniences like noise levels and ant problems that detracted from the experience.

Rooms

5.0

The first room I was given was small and had a disturbing view with ants crawling around. After some complaints, I was moved to a corner suite which was larger but still suffered from cleanliness issues like stains and dirt on the walls.

Service

7.0

The staff was incredibly accommodating and handled my requests quickly. They offered prompt assistance with room issues, which was appreciated, but overall the attentiveness felt a bit inconsistent.

Location

8.0

The hotel is ideally located near the pool and has beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. However, it's a bit further from the main attractions of Palm Springs, which could be inconvenient for some.

Dining

5.0

The dining options were decent but could really use more variety and flavor, especially for breakfast.

Facilities

6.0

The hotel has a nice pool and a manmade beach area, which was enjoyable. They offered a range of fun activities, but the overall facilities appeared worn and in need of maintenance.
