Mother/Son Getaway
To spend a quality of time for mother and son. Going out a lot in Scottsdale but staying at hotel to relax by swimming pool in the afternoon. Breakfast was so so - it needs more variable foods to choose. Otherwise it was very nice to stay.

Five Night Stay
Breakfast was great every AM. Restaurant and bar were not open (not good, but understandably considering how few stayed there). Room was clean. Staff friendly. This was a great bang for the buck.

Low key vacation
This is our second stay, the first being two years ago. Everyone was very accomodating and went out of their way to help in anyway they could. the only thing we were unhappy with was the bar and restaurant, it was VERY under staffed, our bartender was so busy and he really needed some help!! Our last visit we were there everyday, this time twice was enough! It was not his fault!!

The momo's
It was sufficient
The pictures online were deceiving! The pool is nothing like the picture, although it was clean but there were no towels. Lobby was nice and Spanish like.

Ok Mesa Hotel
The Dobson Ranch Inn was probably very, very nice in it's day but it's now run down and showing it's age. The towels are thin and small. The beds are comfortable but the furnishings are all outdated and showing wear. The pool and spa needed to be cleaned on our first night there, the decking is cracked and peeling. The breakfasts do have hot scrambled eggs, potatoes and a meat along with the standard continental fare but it wasn't anything special or out of the ordinary. The wifi did not work in our room and we were told it was iffy in the entire hotel. We had to go to the office to use the computer. At $88 offseason, you can probably find something a little better.

Just Okay
This hotel is not terrible, but certainly a bit threadbare. The name and the pics of the hotel are much more "resorty" than the place itself. The pool was nice and clean but nothing special. There was a worker painting the railing, so at least the hotel is trying to stay upgraded. My carpet was stained and not fresh looking. The room itself was clean, so that's a plus. The restaurant offers a free breakfast, which is nice, but when I sat down the carpet beneath me was all crumbs from the night before. Even my bench seat had not been wiped down. I'm sure the mess was from the night before because I went to breakfast as soon as they opened. Also, someone had spilled something sticky in front of my door which remained there for the rest of my stay. It's the little detail that in my opinion keep this hotel to a 2.5 rating. Two very positive things about this hotel--very close to the freeway (and a Starbucks across the street) and a powerful/awesome shower. So....bottom line--reasonably clean inside the rooms (except maybe the carpet?) but just okay. Don't expect resort.
