This is a good, but not great, lower budget boutique-type hotel near downtown Palm Springs. Yhe hotel has basic rooms made nicer with wood accents and stylish upgrades. Check in was easy. They some rooms that face the inner pool area, we didn't get one, but might be a few dollars more, but recommend, especially in downstairs, so you can step out your door to the pool area. It was New Years, and the jacuzzi was large and great, but the pool wasn't heated and was freezing.
