"Great location. The only time I’ve ever gone swimming in a hotel pool! Two thoughts: I’ve never used a Nespresso so quick instructions would’ve been helpful; and the breakfast wasn’t worth it. Since you’re steps away from El Paseo, just skip the breakfast and walk."

"This is a cute little dated vintage motel. Rooms were clean. Beds are comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Within walking distance of Great Palm Desert Shopping. Beauitiful Mountain Views and near Joshua Tree. Room was not ready at check in. TV and internet service was less than intermittant. Walls are not very sound proof."
