"The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating.2019-12-31"
"Our king suite was large, but attention to detail was lacking. There were no bellhops, the sink dripped, and there were only 2 creamers for the in-room coffee. Due to understaffing, we weren't able to get room service food. I expected better service at such an expensive hotel.2019-01-15"
"The hotel staff was amazing. The restaurant was already closed when we arrived at 9 PM, and room service wasn't available.2017-10-04"
"The hotel room smelled bad and was dirty, especially in the corners. I had to call about breakfast vouchers instead of getting them at check-in.

"A decent hotel, but don't expect much. The room was sufficient, but not much else. The employees were friendly.2019-12-30"
"The hotel room was appropriate for the price, and it seemed clean enough. The bed was comfortable, but the TV was at an odd angle to watch from bed. The bathroom showed some wear, but it was clean. Easy check-in and super nice staff. The grounds and exterior were beautiful. Breakfast was nice, but the eating area was crowded and there wasn't enough seating. The vending and ice machines were all on the 1st floor, which was inconvenient.2019-12-23"

"We had a fairly pleasant stay at this hotel. There wasn't a lot of noise, and the employees were friendly, polite, and helpful. The suite didn't have a coffee maker, dishes, dish towels, or cleaning supplies. The police turned up a number of times during our stay, but we didn't run into any problems.2020-02-13"
"I had an amazing hotel stay, and the staff was friendly.2017-08-08"
"Great location. Spacious room with comfortable beds and pillows. Every employee we encountered was friendly. The maintenance worker noticed that our door lock was loose and fixed it immediately. Breakfast was really good. The hotel provided a shuttle service to nearby shops and restaurants. I highly recommend staying here.2016-08-15"
"I was disappointed with my hotel stay. Remodeling was underway at the entrance, and signage wasn't clear. We had to park far from the entrance. Both days of our stay, food ran out well before breakfast ended. The shuttle was out of service, and we'd planned to use to to get to and from our concert.2016-08-09"
"We enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend this hotel.2021-01-04"
"Convenient to the sports venue, but not a good location for seeing Phoenix or shopping if you don't have a car. The hotel room was nice and large, and the staff was courteous. No safe in the room; I accidentally left my iPad, but a housekeeper called and said it would be shipped to me. The restaurant service and food weren't ideal, though breakfast was good.2017-01-05"
"Conveniently located off the freeway, but the hotel wasn't in a walkable area, so be prepared to drive. Good place to stay otherwise.2016-10-26"
"Beautiful hotel with clean rooms. The check-in time of 4 PM was too late. The employees were friendly.2016-09-14"
"The hotel room was small but comfortable, and the beds were a delight. The employees were friendly. Clean, awesome pool and whirlpool. No shuttle to Ak-Chin Pavilion. Great stay all around.2016-08-30"
"Good experience overall. The room was extremely clean, but there were only 2 small trash cans provided. Breakfast was a disappointment; all the tables were dirty when we got there, so we skipped eating half the mornings of our stay.2019-03-31"
"The hotel room was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the shower was great. The sink drain needed to be cleaned out.2019-01-09"

"I had a pleasant stay. The hotel room was clean, and the linen was well-stocked. Don't be intimidated by the surrounding neighborhood; we felt safe here.2019-06-25"
"An older hotel in a noisy area by I-10. The traffic noise sounded like a racetrack by my room. There was a sticky stain on the carpet, and the top sheet was missing from the bed. The pool was in the shade. I was here for a professional class, and our water and snacks were removed before our break, so we had to buy water from the machine. The only restaurants nearby were McDonald's, Burger King, and one great Mexican place. The hotel diner had irregular hours and slow service; it was often closed. I wouldn't stay here again.2021-05-05"

HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.

Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
