Great place for anyone

I had a three day/ two night stay at Dobson Ranch Inn. The staff were quick at their jobs and very friendly. The only problem I had was someone had left an alarm clock on in an empty room beside me, and that took two hours to take care of after calling the front desk.

Good value

Very clean rooms, great staff, clean pool, although only about a third of the jets in the hottub work, and it has been that way for 4 years, it was still a very nice experience. Centrally located, easy to get around the Phoenix area. I would recommend this place.

Very nice place to stay in Phoenix

We had a standard room and it was very nice. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean and looked recently refurbished. The staff was always friendly and very helpful. The grounds are quite nice with fountains, swimming pools and quiet sitting areas. It seems like you are in a secluded place even though you are actually close to a major highway. Also the breakfast served in the morning is not just a few pastries, it is a cooked meal. I was really surprised at how enjoyable our stay was here. On our next trip to Phoenix, we will definitely be staying here again.

family visit

This hotel was at a great location. Food was good at the restaurant. Could have used some music at the happy hour bar. Pool looked fabulous, just didn't have the time to enjoy. The only thing that I feel needs consideration is the shower temp control. I had gotten burned several times... controls are out of wack, and, the automatic lighting is off the wall---last night kept going on by itself..about 6 times for no reason. Had to get out of bed each and every time to shut off... Could not even take the light fixture down to unscrew the bulb--AGGGRRRRR

Pleasant

Our stay was fine for the price. The morning breakfast which was complementary needs help. We stayed 4 days and it was very minimal and the very same each day. I know it is a though economy so hopefully it will improve.

Go onto Yelp to find where locals go to eat. It really helped me on this trip to find really good eateries.
