Too much virtual
I did not expect a virtual check in with no lobby or front desk. It was all done over phone texts. I prefer personal contact and felt lost.

Enjoyed the Vibe at the Drift PS
We enjoyed the 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom unit. Check in was easy with Julian at the reception. Easy with the room code. Any communication via text was responded to quickly. The food and drinks at the restaurant were very good. And hotel prices to be expected. Loved the music and pool. Great vibe. Loved the fire pits and the DJ night with the tacos. Would recommend the Drift Palm Springs

Great property!! We loved EVERYTHING about it. The only reason for the 4 star was because the streaming function wasn’t working and they didn’t have enough complimentary coffee for all of our days.

Not a fan of the dirt-stained mirror in the private bathroom. Felt unnecessary. Wish there was some other form of storage to put clothes away but not a deal breaker.
First time at the hotel and it was a great experience. Will definitely be staying again.

Our experience was great .
We arrived at 2 PM and our room was already ready.
We love the fact that there was a kitchen to cook as well.

Great place, very spacious and clean. Loved the room and its view. Loved that the fridge had an ice maker and grocery outlet was down the street. Only thing that I dislike was the showers water pressure but other than rhat everything was good.
