My unit was not as shown in the photos…I selected a luxury suite, but was given a half updated suite instead. The floor was the old tile shown in some of the photos. The bathroom and kitchen were not updated at all, except for maybe some paint and the lights. The dishwasher knob was missing, making it unusable. The kitchen also didn’t come with anything to use the oven, the living area furniture was just 2 old chairs and a coffee table (no couch as advertised), the bedsheets were pilling like from being washed with towels too many times, and there was no laundry or gym (as advertised). Lastly, the WiFi router light is very bright and faces the bed, which can make it difficult to sleep. & the fridge in unit 33 makes a constant tapping sound that will not stop unless you unplug it. The staff was extremely nice. I wasn’t feeling well on check-in day and they let me check in about a half hour early so I could lay down. A maintenance man noticed me struggling with the door and immediately came to see if it would be okay for my stay. Housekeeping came 3/4 days I stayed over. If you’re looking for a no frills place that’s very affordable, with a kitchen and your own bathroom, this is it.

The window coverings do not block out the extremely bright night security lighting. The manager did stop and ask if we needed anything, but that was at the end of our stay. The "garbage" bags were so small they didn't fit the trash can in the kitchen. We did enjoy the wonderfully warm pool.

We stayed for two nights and had never been here before. First, the good. The location is good, central to lots of different things in the area. We had friends at the JW and it was a little over four miles away. The room is nicely updated, especially the kitchen and bathroom areas. No issues with parking. The room overlooks one of the pools, which looks nice and is heated. No hot tub unfortunately. There is a great balcony and the bathroom is nice with dual sinks and lots of counter space. No tub, but the shower is a decent size. Now for the not so good. The room is not a suite. It is simply one fairly big room. Obviously the bathroom is separate, but there is no separation between bedroom, kitchen, or living area. The living area is not conducive to watching TV. Although there is a nice size closet in the bathroom area, there are no drawers for clothes. There is plenty of room to have a chest of drawers. The couch doubles as a futon, but would be hard pressed to fit more than one person. There were no additional pillows, bedding, or blankets. There was only two of us, but it would’ve been nice to have some extra pillow choices and an extra blanket if we needed it. The place was generally clean, but after walking around for 10 minutes in bare feet, we noticed our feet were black. The LVP didn’t appear dirty, but it was disgusting and must not have been cleaned in quite some time. There is a nice size fridge/freezer, but no ice machine and no ice available on the property.

A Gem in Palm Desert

Wonderful stay! While the property is older, the studio apartment was fully renovated with brand new appliances and a very comfortable bed. The location of this property is only a half a mile from downtown Palm Desert, which offers lots of shopping and great restaurants. The only negative is that the smart tv only had Netflix loaded; no other apps or regular tv channels. For the price point, room size, amenities and location, I would highly recommend staying here and will definitely return.

Although this was advertised as a luxury suite, it was anything but luxury. The office for this facility is not labeled. There’s no phone number I only was able to be directed to the correct person because a maintenance guy saw me wandering around the property trying to find the office. Once we got in the room, there was a very noticeable chemical odor mixture of cleaner and insect spray that even though we tried to air out the room, never fully went away. It really made the stay uncomfortable. There was no microwave in the room, even though that was an advertised feature. The front of the stove was completely missing. We had to ask for coffee for the coffee maker. Although we had three people clearly on our reservation, there were only two towels in the bathroom. Furthermore, there was a blue light on some type of apparatus on the ceiling that we could not turn off. It kept waking me up at night and I had no way to block it off or turn it off. Having there’s no office present on the property. I could not go to find help at night to figure out how to get this horrible light off. The floor lamp in the corner of the room could not be manually turned off, and we had to unplug it to turn it on and off The good point of it is the location was convenient to the stage theater that we were attending a production at. There is food and grocery nearby. The room itself was very quiet at night in the area was also quiet and the parking was well illuminated.

The room was spacious and bed was comfortable. Interestingly, the kitchen had a great refrigerator and stove and lots of frying pans, but no cooking utensils. There were 4 plates, bowls, and salad plates, but only one cup, no glasses two forks and spoons and no cutting utensils. Lacked hair dryer, tissue, soap, and iron. My key would not work after first entrance. The saving grace was Kim who managed all my needs upon request. This room has a lot of potential, but it needs to be updated. I was not on the grounds during the day. I loved the proximity to Route 111 and my tournament destination. The price was right, but I would not pay the seasonal fee for this room beginning in March.

Disappointed

The service started out wonderfully. However, when I told management that the heater didn't work I lost all communication with them. There isn't an office on-site and this was confusing to me. There was a wonderful woman named Kim who tried to help me with the heater but to no avail. She gave me an extra blanket but I was freezing for 2 nights. Also, the TV wouldn't turn off so they cut the power to the TV entirely so NO TV. The curtains wouldn't shut completely so the light on the outside deck shone in the room all night. Also, no coffee maker. What?! I wouldn't recommend this place but apparently Building A is remodeled and quite nice. I was in Building F. It's a funky place that wasn't clean. However, I will say that the small little bed was comfortable. Don't stay here.

Almost Great!

Easy check in. Clean. Bright. Big windows. Lovely view. Functional kitchen. Great location. Terrific price. Nice internet access. But a few easy fixes would make this a 5 star review. Please provide: Kleenex; soap of some sort in the shower; hairdryer; kitchen dish towels along with a small dish drying rack; soap for auto dishwasher. Last thing…there are many lights around the room that distract when sleeping: stove, microwave, heater, TV, but the one that shines like a cabaret spotlight is the router in the middle of the ceiling. Crazy bright!! Maybe something can cover the light? Tape? It’s really bright. All the above would cost less than $100 but would help a bunch. Thanks for listening!!
