May 12 2008: Great little boutique hotel. Very quiet, amazing rooms and decor and the staff was super pleasant and helpful. Only 3-4 blocks away from downtown Palm Springs, nussled right into the mountainside. If you go downtown for dinner definitely check out Pomme Fritte - awesome French restaurant, one of the best meals I've had in a while.
