Good location in Palm Desert.

A great place to stay in the area especially if you take advantage of the tennis programs. Nice Restaraunt’s nearby. Not a fancy place. Used to have a strong pickleball program but they got rid of that. Reasonably priced stay. Adequate golf course.

We were not given the room set up that we had booked. After being told by the front desk they were sold out and this was all they had, we made due. Hotels.com did come through and get us a portion refunded and a credit for the app. The resturant food was good, we got take out one night. Checked in very late and it was process as the report is gated and no one is at the desk after 8pm.
