Not what we expected
The pictures of the hotel were very deceiving. Our room is very outdated, had no phone to reach the front desk, dirty, housekeeping left our slider wide open.

Nice place to stay
This is an older property but has been remodeled to give it a more modern appearance. The pool and water features were nice. The rooms had been updated and were well-appointed. A good value for the price.

One night was enough
TV didn't work as there were no controls. No desk to use a laptop. Toilet didn't flush properly. Shower controls difficult to use.

Meh. Location, location, location.
I was surprised with the quality and not in a good way. One wall of outlets didnt work, the bathroom fan did not remove any moisture during a shower and the whole room smelled of mildew. The door chain fell out of the wall and the filter for the AC/heater was full of dust, hasn't been cleaned in a bit. I would much rather choose a different hotel and walk a couple blocks to Old Town.

The only great thing about this property is its location. Walking distance to Old Town Scottsdale. The room itself was mediocre. There was no shampoo, body wash or phone to call front desk. The shower head trickled out water.

The whole staff was amazing whether it was in the coffeehouse, the front desk or the maintenance. Absolutely the best! The customer service was impeccable.
They still are working on a couple fine touches to improve things but the upgrades done so far are great.
The pool and courtyard area are absolutely gorgeous. The pool is always super clean and they have plenty of chairs and towels for everybody.
The location is perfect and safe to walk around old town Scottsdale.
