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

This resort is very mis leading the picture make it look like a quality boutique hotel. As a local from Palms Springs I can tell you that this place is below standard and the rooms are more of the quality of a motel 6 or travel lodge. The theme may be retro but its more like a cheap hotel from out of the 70's. Luckily they did accommodate us and let us move across the street to their sister hotel "Obits inn".. There sister hotel is more of what you would expect from a stay in Palm Springs @ a boutique hotel. Desert hills is over priced, over rated, and the pictures are miss leading. Note: the hot tub had caution tape around it and the pool honestly didn’t look inviting. Luckily there are so many other Amazing boutique hotels in palm springs and at a lower price; which is why i would never settle for the Desert hill hotel again...

What a fun little motel that takes you back in time! Easy check-in and friendly communications with all. We were only there for one night but will definitely choose this place again when we return to visit. One suggestion is to allow communication through WhatsApp instead of just texting for those who are not able to use text as an option while travelling.

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!

Loved hearing the birds in the morning! My room had all the extra touches of a home guest arrival - waters in the fridge, snacks on the counter, and cute soaps in the bathroom. Adorable pink bathroom with original tile makes this place a far better choice than a boring white & grey hotel room. I recommend Desert Hills.

Property was very nice. Easy walking distance to major attractions. Staff was very friendly. We stated in a room that seems to have a unsecured heat/cooling system attached to the outside wall and each time the system turned on you could hear the rattling of the unit. Otherwise great placethe
