We develop Descriptive Set Theory in Generalized Baire Spaces without assuming $\kappa^{ <\kappa}=\kappa$. We point out that without this assumption the basic topological concepts of these spaces have to be slightly modified in order to obtain a meaningful theory. This modification has no effect if $\kappa^{ <\kappa}=\kappa$. After developing the basic theory we apply it to the question whether the orbits of models of a fixed cardinality $\kappa$ in the space $\kappa^\kappa$ are $\kappa$-Borel in our generalized sense. It turns out that this question depends, as is the case when $\kappa^{ <\kappa}=\kappa$, on stability theoretic properties (structure vs. non-structure) of the first order theory of the model.
