Hi...

I have stayed at this property a few years ago. Ask for a room overlooking the pool. The other (street) side is on a busy intersection and can be noisy.

This was a Hotwire purchase, I had previously made a few PL bids for Resort properties starting at $69 Rancho Mirage, adding Indio and bidding 82, starting again with Resort Central Palm Springs at $59, adding Indio again at $69. Due to the holiday break season I am not sure these data points would be useful to most bidders. I decided to stop bidding on PL since I am traveling with children and am trying to get two connecting rooms -- I have had varying success getting, and not getting, connecting rooms on PL. At least Hotwire lets you specify the number of kids. I emailed the hotel manager asking for a connecting room as this is my most important criterion (although a poolside room would be a plus). I will report when I get back.

I was unable to retrieve the same rate. The Ramada Resort hotel is a resort, it does have a pool and two jacuzzis (9A-11P), coffeemakers, refrigerators, in-room safes (said to cost $1/rm/day, but no charge was collected) , outside corridors (our room entry was from the rear parking lot, and the room fronted on the pool area via a sliding glass door); restaurants, limited room service, gift shop, massage and spa services available, unsure if there was an exercise room. We emailed the manager in advance and were given connecting rooms. The kids thought they had died and gone to heaven. There is a supermarket, drugstore, and several restaurants in the immediate vicinity of the property.
