Loved the mid century feel of Desert Hills. So well done. It’s like time traveling to the rat pack days. The property and the setting is beautiful. Would definitely recommend and look forward to booking again.

Desert Hills was a great little oasis just at the bottom of the mountains. The pool offers awesome views of palm trees and the sorrow ding mountains. Around a 5 minute walk from the Palm Canyon Strip as well which made dining and shopping easy and convenient! Ben was wonderful when our flight arrived early and made sure we had a place to put our bags. The rooms had plenty of room nice enough amenities for the time we spent in it. The glowing tree also makes an easy pickup/ drop off spot for ride share/ delivery services!

Very quaint and clean. Easy walk down to shopping and restaurants. Nice pool area. Check in is a bit strange without a front desk or ability to drop off bags if you arrive early but the guy across the street at Orbit Inn looked after us. My friend had suite 1 which was remodeled and beautiful. I had room 8 which needs a refresh.

Very quiet hotel, with all rooms circling a central courtyard and pool. Great location close to the main strip of bars and restaurants. Other guests were very friendly. The A/C in the room worked great. Complementary snacks and drinks were available in the fridge including much appreciated bottles of water. We unplugged the fridge overnight to make the room silent.

We enjoyed an early check in and visit with Brian, Quick witted manager across the street. Meeting other guests by the pool was great. Walking to shopping and dining was good exercise. Nettie, housekeeping was accommodating. The only drag was the spa was down for maintenance. The room was very clean and comfortable and stocked with a few snacks and drinks and coffee pods. We had a great time!

6/10 Good

Parking and checking-in easy. Located in a quiet neighborhood. We stayed in a room #11 the only one that didn’t face the pool, but the back alley next to trash cans. Bed matress and pillows were okay not great. Vertical blinds didn’t work properly when we’re trying to open them up, just started falling down and the pole was attached to the railing with a tape.carpet needs to be replaced-it’s very old and not very clean. The bathroom also needs upgrades.please see attached picture. But when we called to report slow drainage in the sink it was addressed quickly. Hopefully other rooms are better maintained than ours.

Retro Experience
Palm Springs is always a relaxing and fun time. We opted not to stay in a traditional hotel. This quaint bungalow style hotel had about 15 one story rooms surrounding a beautiful and clean poo with a magnificent mountain back drop. It's like being back in time! The room we had was incredibly spacious and extremely clean. It's still an older place but very well kept. There were even snacks and drinks for us upon our arrival, nice touch! Just so you know, there were no staff to great us or check in but rather the hotel efficiently communicated with us through a live person text that would respond back to you. We truly enjoyed our stay and would come back!

Beautiful spot up against the mountains, surrounded by Palm trees. Sounds of the birds were delightful. So many Hummingbirds early in the morning. Extremely clean, comfortable efficiency room. Easy access to the sites. Gondola ride and Architectural tour were highlights.

Great charming place, We are already planning a return visit. It felt like we stepped back in time to the 60's in a good way. Would highly recommend. Wish the air temperature would have been warmer, the pool looked so inviting.
