I particularly liked the architectural design of Lodge on the Desert. The variations between units and desert garden details were quietly peaceful and beautiful. Our room was spacious and well maintained. A very pleasant stay - thank you.

6/10 Good

A bit outdated.
The room was old school with barely any USB ports and an old carpet. The light switches were hard to find and when on, the light was very low like in a cave. The only view was of another room really close by. It felt oppressive. Not what you would expect for a vacation. The positive was the bathroom which was well lit and spacious. The bathtub was ancient though. Hopefully there are better rooms. Accommodating staff.

Nice staff but this was not a four star hotel. The casita was not what we expected. No couch, small bathroom… Property and room is very dated.
