Overall, a good property. The location is a quick drive to downtown and a mile or so walk or bike ride to the nearest grocery store. The other houses in the neighborhood are a bit hit or miss, some seem well loved, while others looked a bit neglected.
Inside, the kitchen and living area are spacious and well-suited for a family. The guest bathroom is a bit tight if it is being shared, as was our case. The back patio is really where it's at for this place, with a great dining and seating area. That said, there were aspects of the home that seemed a little worn (e.g., tiles in the spa falling off, a random hole in one of the guest bedroom walls) and some of the kitchen items were tired and in need of updating and upgrading (e.g., rusty cooking utensils, most of the plate and bowls were not microwave safe).
I was disappointed with the check-in process as the person seemed rather unfamiliar with the property, especially as it related to heating the pool and spa. Another person was available to answer texts though, and the homeowner was responsive via VRBO.
I've stayed in a number of Palm Springs homes via VRBO and other rental companies, and this ranks as average.
