Great location, pool area, lanai, views
We checked in early and were given towels for the pool while we waiting for the room to be cleaned; staff provided extra pillows, and were very nice and helpful. The pool area is awesome surrounded by Palms. Armon "Chief Engineer" did a great job maintaining the pool and was very friendly. The Lanai was really relaxing in the late evenings. The south location is very close to the main downtown activities and an easy drive to Rancho Mirage and Cathedral City. The towering San Jacinto mountains provided a really nice background and was really pretty too. We had a fantastic stay and are planning our next trip to Palm Springs and Caliente Tropics. Only negative I can think of is the choppy WiFi, but I think a simple range extender would fix that issue.

Palm Springs - relaxing oasis
Our stay in Palm Springs was great. We visited the Joshua Tree National Park which is amazing. We saw the sunset and did a great trail on the next day. The pool and Jacuzzi in the Caliente Tropics Resort were just perfect for our sore feet and we had a great time there. Its a great hotel for that price. Its a little bit off restaurants etc. but if you have a car its a great place to stay!

Nice getaway weekend with the pup!
It was very pleasant. Our first time traveling with our puppy and he loved it! The rooms were nice and big. The pool area and dog park were very well kept. We will be coming back!

Hey it's Palm Springs
If you need to be close to town and don't golf this works. Staff was great. Pool area is very nice. Resort...sort of implies you don't need to leave for anything. There is no bar, there appears to have been one complete with a place for a band. No food, but you have a fridge and places to eat are close. They look like they are starting some upgrades. Decent place for the price. Would stay there again.

Find somewhere else.
Cons: No internet and no hot water in the room (just barely warm), stained carpet, no restaurant or bar open. Pros: comfy bed, friendly helpful staff and lovely pool. There are so many choices in Palm Springs, so there is no need to settle for less that fabulous.

Average location OK
Required prepayment then you arrive and they require $100 fee added to your credit card when the room is trashed? I don't like that!
