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!!

DO NOT STAY HERE. The woman who met us when we checked in was kind and helpful which was about the only plus outside of free parking. Negatives of the trips were cockroaches, broken tv, broken oven, and no heat. More details follow: The condo-like unit was outdated but initially seemed OK. However, we quickly realized that the TV did not work and that the glass front on the oven had been busted out so the oven was not usable. My daughter and I got takeout which we were going to share. I went to grab plates from the cupboard and three coach roaches scattered from under the plates (gross). I then saw one run across the floor. We requested a unit change which was accommodated. The new unit was similarly outdated with a smaller bed. We were willing to share a full bed instead of a king to escape the cockroaches. The TV in this unit worked as did the oven. Regrettably, the heat did not. We were told they would fix the heat the next day while we were out so we just slept in our sweatshirts. Wen we got back to the unit the next day, the heat had not been fixed so we called again and were given a small space heater. That worked for ~30 minutes when it blew a breaker. It was 10pm and the person who managed the property was off. So we tried switching plugs to a different wall which blew a different breaker. So, we slept in our sweatshirts again. The gentleman we had messaged about our nightmare said he would call the next day after 11 re: compensation. He never called. :(

The room was very nice and spacious with cooking facilities. Our room backed onto a pool which was nice; the pool was heated but our days there was quite cool (mid January) so we didn’t use it, but otherwise would have. Lots of amenities right close by. Quiet and very safe neighborhood. Surprised to get amenities and daily cleaning which we didn’t expect. Loved the roomy shower, and areas to sit on sofa or eat at a large counter.

Room very clean. I agree with another reviewer about size of TV. Bed about 20ft away and TV quite small. Mattress was a bit soft. Loved the kitchen do easy to eat or prepare meals. Pool was lovely and heated!! Location was a dream, close to shops, stores, malls, easy to drive places. Big ask would be to feel safer. Wish door had an extra lock to use when in for the night like they have in actual hotels.
