"Nice location. Was clean with all the things you need in the kitchen. The couch and love seat need to be replaced as you are sinking into a hole when you sit down and was hard to up. Was happy AC worked very well as it was 101 to 110 during our stay. Golf course was in excellent shape and worth price and convenience. Wish the restaurant had longer hours than 11-4 Tuesday thru Saturday. "

Homewood Suites by Hilton Palm Desert

10/10 Excellent
"The lady who checked us in was rude , just the way she treated us. No smile, and made is felt lole we owe her for stsying there and not the other way around. Felt not welcomed. No smile at all. No rhank u. But i luv our room and the amenities were awesome. Thers kotchen and itensiles with full size fridge, electric stove included. I would have stayed longer if i could. The only downside is theres no hot tub. But their pool looks awesome. 24/7 coffee available but , its cold. They dont keep up to make it hot all the time . Breakfast is good. No sliced fruits tho. Pancake and waffles , but already cooked. Not like u make it urself."
