Perfect for a quiet get away
This was an excellent value and perfect location for a quiet holiday in palm springs. Plenty of space in a quiet neighborhood, close to everything. We were able to cook and enjoy the pool and outdoor spaces. I would absolutely book again. Communication was great and glad to have had the option for our Xmas get away.
