Nice hotel, well priced compared to the rest of Palm Springs. Allowed dogs (we brought ours) and the pool was nice. I wasn't a fan of the check-in process with no one there (similar to AirBnB) but the owners were very responsive over text.

Escape

This hotel is truly remarkable and may very well be one of the finest hotels we have had the pleasure of visiting. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the seamless and efficient contactless check-in process, which set a positive tone for our stay. One of the standout features of this hotel is undoubtedly the pool. The pool area is beautifully designed, with comfortable loungers and landscaping that creates a tranquil atmosphere. Our room itself is well-appointed, featuring a mini kitchenette that adds an extra layer of convenience to our stay. The bathroom deserves special mention as well, boasting a modern design that is both stylish and functional. The heated toilet seat is a luxurious touch that we never knew we needed, and the remote-controlled features add an element of high-tech comfort that enhances our overall experience. This hotel has exceeded our expectations and provided us with a memorable getaway. We look forward to returning and enjoying all that this remarkable establishment has to offer once again.

Great value for a quick trip - price reasonable for appropriate accommodations! Palm Springs vibes down to the decor, close to the action but far enough away for quiet and a safe environment. A few holes to play mini golf, a warm pool, a hot tub and loungers fenced off for an area private to the neighborhood. Room was simple but clean with everything you’d want from a budget hotel but a step elevated (TV, desk, minifridge, nice coffee maker…). Free parking out front including off-street and on. Noting this place does not have a lobby or front desk staff - it’s all digital. But communication was quick, even late at night.
