Desert Palms Hotel & Suites

Desert Palms Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good
"The rooms were well kept and the staff was very helpful when we checked in. When we needed any extra assistance or information they were more than helpful to step in and take care of it. Breakfast was great and the staff kept it replenished. Walking to Disneyland took us about 10/15 minutes which was so convenient."
