Well kept and Comfy
This property is clean, comfortable & well equipped. Comfy beds, good showers & the casita was added lovely bonus.The neighborhood is quiet and convenient, though not really a walk to downtown areas. Good ratio of pool umbrellas to chairs.

Ideal Palm Springs MCM
Great house to celebrate the holiday with extended family. Close to downtown restaurants, tram, airport, and stores. Loved walking around the neighborhood to check out all the MCM homes. Convience to airport does mean there's flight path noise, but our toddler loved seeing the planes.
