Pros (+) Great location.
Cons (-) Beneath the veneer of hip, the place is tired. Cracked sink and tub. Room door handle falling off. Sheets that don't fit the bed. A budget hotel without the budget price.

Pros (+) The location is absolutely great! Within walking distance to everything. Felt stupid for renting a car. We didn't even move it during our stay. Walked everywhere in old town and took an Uber to Camelback Mt. ($15 that way and $6back... strange ) Loved the vibe by the pool and the variety of people. From families with kids, to young adults and also mature couples...everyone was very chill and had a...
Cons (-) They had a wedding one of the days and pool area had to be closed by 4pm. I completely understand it...however, we had to make different plans since we were not aware of it in advance.

Pros (+) The hotel is minutes from Old Scottsdale, as well as easily accessible from highways and the airport. Very convenient.although
Cons (-) Although we used the elevator to access our room on the 2nd floor, getting our luggage from the car in parking lot to the elevator was not easy due to the few stairs near the parking lot. Anyone with heavy luggage, a stroller or wheelchair would find the stairs a detriment. Suggest ramps replace the stairs.

Pros (+) Great location/proximity to Old Town.
Cons (-) Didn't have ANY hot water during my stay. What's the point of a hotel room without hot water. Bed was also not comfortable.

Pros (+) Friendly, helpful staff. Rooms were clean. Great location, we walked to Giants Stadium and to many restaurants. Used the hotel bikes and enjoyed the pool with games. Workout facility is good. Food was good, not great.
Cons (-) As friendly as they were, service was slow... we couldn't get into most of our rooms until 4:30 or 5:30 in one case. Service in the restaurant was painfully slow. We weren't in any hurry so it was ok, but if we'd had somewhere to be, it would have been a problem. Broken elevator was annoying.
