glad I did not have your bed
I actually thought the bed and pillows were better than most Marriotts.

Well, one can't have it all with Courtyards
Our stay at the Palm Desert Courtyard was quite nice. Used the stay 3 get 2 certs for both our nights.
Property is aways out from the strip (Hwy 111) but we liked it because it was
QUIET!!!!, woke up to the birds singing.
Nice pool area w/40+ lounge chairs.
There were two 10-12 person hot tub/pools which are on opposite ends of the pool which is nice for privacy.
With 55 degree nights my wife and I had these to ourselves.
There is also a 25' x 25' putting green to practice your stroke.
On the whole, seeing as you need a car anyways in this area, we really liked this property while we usually stay in "nicer" resorts; we would probably stay here again.
PS: looked through the concierge's menu books, I would not recommend much in them.
