Great Stay

We had a great stay. The room was very comfortable and the decor was great. The location of the hotel was perfect. Right in scottsdale, but just a short drive north and south. All the main highways are very close. The hotel restaurant "AVALON" was wonderful. Our best meal while visiting.

Fun getaway

It is a nice, clean hotel. The rooms are a little small, but has everything you need. The beds were very comfortable with plenty of pillows. The pool was small, but clean and refreshing. The fitness center has 2 treadmills and a bike. It has plenty of free weights as well. Over all, great facility for the price.

Unbeatable place

I would definitely stay here again when I'm in the Phoenix area. This hotel far beats any of the bigger chains. You get better rooms (nicely decorated, very modern) and don't have to deal with the big location. I love the "extra" amenities you get without paying the extra price - wifi, a computer (with free printing!) in the guestroom, water, coffee. There's even a microwave in the room. I didn't visit the pool so I don't know what it's like. There's a nice little park across the street. Easy to get to (though I used my GPS system). Overall, very satisfied with my room and stay.

mini getaway

We needed a short getaway and this place suited our needs perfectly. Staff was friendly, cool location, nice pool which we certainly took advantage of and basically it was the right place at the right time. They could however, use a good spraying for bugs.... found one huge cricket and some other sort of multi legged beast crawling in the bathroom but he probably wanted to escape the heat too! The rooms were clean and the people were great. The Avalon restaurant was amazing as well. We will be back again!

good stay not great

The orbitz deal was good. The hotel was clean. I wouldnt say spotless. The pool and jacuzi were great. The room was pratty nice. The bed was better than most at other places I have stayed. The main problems were You had to walk to the front office and sign out pool towels, that was kind of a pain, we were way on the other side of the building and it was 110 degrees. It was diffacult to adjust the showers water temp, finaly found were the hot water was on the second day. Bathroom was not well lite.

Modern and comfortable but a little loud

We stayed here because we had to attend a funeral in Phoenix. The hotel is right next to the 101 so you can get around town efficiently. The worst part was the walls. They seem very thin because every morning we were woken by neighbors or maids. We could hear when they dropped something or if they were in the bathroom even. It was annoying. The room was great. Super comfy beds and feather comforters. The coffee in the room was terrible though and they hardly give Any sugar. The room has a fridge and a microwave so everything you need to make a fast meal. We loved the bathroom because it is all granite and very chic. All in all I would like to stay Here again but I will bring ear plugs next time

We enjoyed it!

The hotel was alright. Great value for the money. The pool was the best part and the awesome restaurant next door! Otherwise it was too small for 3 people. My husband was on business and my daughter and I came to visit him. They had a crib for her which was nice, and a fridge and microwave which was very nice, but overall the rooms were just too small. If you can get past that it is an amazing deal and everything has been updated. Granite everywhere and the beds were very comfortable. Would be nice for one person but not great for families.
