The location is amazing, a walking distance from hiking trail heads, nested close to the tall mountains in a beautiful and manicured neighborhood. The housekeepers were very nice and efficient. the manager was extremely professional and responsive. The garden was well groomed. The king size bed was very comfortable. The kitchenette well appointed, we had our breakfast in the nook and our lunch in the patio on the large table, serenaded by birds. A wonderful place and stay. We will come again.

The jacuzzi was under repair.

Beautiful mid century modern property. We understand it has just changed ownership after decades in the same family. The pool area was lovely. The room was very clean. It was very easy to get into the property and the management team was communicative before our stay with information on how to access the property. The location at the foot of the San Jacinto mountains was spectacular and the neighborhood is fabulous, walkable, clean, and safe.

The hot tub was out of order / taped off. We were not aware of this before arriving. The toilet in room 11 needs to be adjusted as the cistern kept filling every minute or two which was terrible during the night. My poor Mum who was visiting from New Zealand was kept up all night which wasn't good. We were also disappointed that we were tucked away in room 11 which is very dark and doesn't have much natural light. All the other rooms seemed to have lovely big windows / sliders out to the pool. There were also a TON of mosquitoes (we have them in LA at the moment which is a massive problem) and we wanted to keep the door open for the light but the mosquitoes would come in so that wasn't an option (bugs were noted on the guest information sheet left for us in our room).

Location is convenient to downtown palm springs and the backdrop are the beautiful mountains. Hotel is gated and we felt very safe. Parking is right in front of property and easy for us to get in and out of our room. Room is well equipped (including full kitchen, large tub, record player, large TV, sofa, etc.) Very clean with friendly staff. Hot tub and pool were nice and clean as well. There is also an ice machine, filtered water, and bbq grills available in the courtyard.

Amazing location and views! Perfect Palm Springs vibe! Was pleasantly surprised to find floats to use in the pool and a water cooler to refill our water bottles.

Our in-room Keurig has some issues, but we found another one to use in the room off the pool which worked great!

The quiet, the well kept grounds, the location.

The bathroom faucet’s cartridge needs replaced. It drips constantly and if when the lever is turned on fully, water blasts out from around the base of the faucet.

Amazing location near to downtown. So quiet and relaxing. Loved the mid-century decor entirely in keeping with the town’s fame. Eric on the end of the phone delightful and so helpful.
