If you want luxury this is not it. It is dated but clean and roomy. The area is also relatively quiet.
They were having issues regulating the pool temperature.

Great location. Close to airport, highways, aerial tram and downtown. Clean and comfortable. Nice pool area. After hours check-in was straight forward.
A little dated. Some of the furniture covers and cabinet faces could use refreshing.

Heated pool and Jacuzzi, access to a local gym, and great location.
The cleaning products used in the unit had smells that were overpowering and triggered my allergies to scents.

The only issue we had was our own fault; we could not figure out the thermostat. I believe it was set and ready togo but we pushed something that caused the fan to come on and make it cold but again that was user error and we figured it out the morning we were leaving.

The pool was heated. Free DVD loaner movies. Two bedrooms with a pull-out couch. The staff were friendly and helpful.
We would have liked to stay longer, but had to get back home. Not their fault.
Wifi is weak and open, no password. Please don't use it for banking or shopping.

Our two bedroom apartment (1 king room and one twin bed room) was very large, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for the simple cooking that I did for the three days we were there. The condo buildings are separated from each other, so it was very quiet at night. The laundry facilities, pool area and the grounds were all clean and well-kept. We had covered parking, so our car didn't get hot, and it is very conveniently located close to the Palm Springs Aerial Tram (which was great!), the cacti botanical garden, and ice cream shop a block away. We really enjoyed the resident hummingbirds as well as the road runner bird that hung out near the ice machine! Since we stayed for three days, the price we paid was very reasonable for such a large place with a lot of amenities.
It would have been helpful if the front office was open after 5:00 because we would have liked to take out bikes for an evening, but couldn't after 4:30. However, the office staff were very helpful when they were there!

The access from our villa to the pool area. The location was close to public transport and convenient stores.
The spa wasn't working when we stayed

Felt like our own apartment… had everything to cook and make tea and coffee. Was super clean and had 2 balconies (apartment for 4-6 persons). We just loved it here. In the morning and throughout the day you could hear the birdies… otherwise quiet. We would love to stay here again some day, when in PS.

Room/villa size was good. Nice and spacious kitchen area with everything you need.
We liked the location too.
Internet was working good in our room.
Room could have been cleaner (there was leftover water in the tub in one of the bathrooms and other little things).
There was a lot of room furniture outside in the covered parking, not sure what that was about...
We arrived at 5:10pm on a Saturday and front office was closed at 5pm.

Pool area was very rundown and the apartment area very dated.
10.0 / 10.0
We didn't use the pool. We walked by it numerous times. Usually we don't see anyone at hotel pools. This one always had someone there. Probably a good sign.
The office staff was very good. The free coffee in the lobby was very good.
Plenty of parking
The location was convenient to everything.
Good security locks on the sliders and window.
Plenty of towels for our stay. We did not have to ask for extras.
All and all the following is minor, but this review asked for something I didn't like. This is all I could come up with. The light switches. Where there was a switch in one room there was a switch plate cover so you had to walk into the dark room to find the lamp. I think that was the lamp where the on/off switch was under the shade just under the bulb. Too much fumbling to get to the switch. Some of lamps in other rooms the switch was on the base of the lamp plus the other bedroom and living room did have a switch that would turn on a lamp plugged into a switched outlet. The bathroom switches were more 'modern' but not as convenient as a simple up/down toggle. I have relatives who are electrical contractors. They would never wire a house or apartment this way.

Property is great. Love the side of the whole villa. Place could use a little more cleaning on kitchen and restroom floors (sweep and mop).
The jacuzzi is way TOO hot.

Desert Villas is located in a fabulous area of Palm Springs. The place needs to be updated but the rooms are enormous and the staff is very helpful and friendly. The pool is great with a mountain view. Place grows on you .Would definitely return.
The second bathroom is small and shower is hard to navigate. The gym is off site.

This was our 2nd weeklong stay at the villas. We like the spaciousness and full kitchen. The facility is dated but we'll maintained. The location is great for access to the entire PS area.
Servicing of the room didn't occur as stated but was done promptly after we requested it.

Clean, the condo feel was great for our family!
The towel situation was hard. They gave us enough towels for the pool, but didn’t replenish. The office is only open until 5 and I felt like I was bothering when I asked to get new towels.
10.0 / 10.0
Very clear, staff wasn’t quite ready for us. But they were so kind we could see they were good people and that’s what matters
It was farther from downtown Palm Springs than we thought. But I Totally blame Booking.com for that

The staff was always friendly, and the rooms very clean and comfy.
Pictures of the pool are deceiving. The pool is small, but overall we had a good time.
10.0 / 10.0
we loved the space you got for the price! the pool also was great for our family that spent most of the day doing hikes in the nearby areas to Palm Springs.
Some of the furniture could a little upgrade and the lighting in the unit we stayed could be updated/made more bright.
6.0 / 10.0
The location and proximity to downtown Palm Springs was great.
The property is very dated, with some clear maintenance that could improve the overall feel. The reception hours on the weekend were limited for anyone going out and about, which meant we weren’t able to get some items we could have used (extra blankets since what was provided as bedding was minimal) because we were out hiking all day and during their hours on the weekend
