It gets said a lot, about a lot of places, but this really is a little Oasis near Downtown PS / Arenas. Very nicely maintained & unassuming from the outside. Very tranquil neighborhood. Its contactless checkin meaning access is via email/messaging. I really look forward to staying here again.

It was very quiet and clean and an easy walk to downtown! The kitchen was a plus and the beds were very comfortable. Just wish the jacuzzi was working but other than that it was a great stay and would definitely stay there again!

While this is a “contactless” property, the staff stayed in close contact via text and was available of any concerns arose. It’s a charming mid-century low rise with a lovely pool area. Can’t beat the location

If you are looking for a clean, quiet, lovely stay in Palm Springs- this is the place. It was perfect for what I was looking for. My room was perfectly clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The pool area was quiet and clean. There is no working hot tub, otherwise 5 stars all around. I’ll definitely be back!

We loved our stay at the Desert Hills, It was our third time coming here and it is always fantastic. Very quiet, close to restaurants and shops. Great atmosphere, beautiful rooms and property. Only downside was a construction site outside the hotel which started their work at 7am. But other then that it was perfect. Thank you Desert Hills.

Decent stay and clean

Decent stay - very clean, bed comfortable, amenities include only pool (hot tub was under construction and seemed like it had been for awhile, not sure) - easy park, easy check in - didn’t like you couldn’t use the pool before your check in time and no one was even there using it - especially when you travel all day and just want to relax - most hotels/accommodations have no problem if you want to do this - close walk to downtown
