Room subpar for cost. Staff confused about billing and charged us multiple times for one night stay which created problems. Did not return call when I had questions about the billing.

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.

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.

Used to be gorgeous now it’s a dump.
Room wasn’t ready so we had to take a lesser room in order to be checked in with enough time to make dinner reservations. Only comped $30 and parking. Pool was dirty and hot tub was green. We had a 1pm checkout but had maid service constantly knocking on our door from 11 onwards. Only positive review is the food and coffee at the cafe was marvelous.

Well where do i begin There was an event scheduled at the property and unfortunately it was not divulged when we arrived. We tried to relax by the pool and then we were told to move to a smaller pool because of the event. Once the event started we had to leave the property because the noise was so loud.Upon returning to the property at 9pm the time it should have ended we could hear the music from the street. Our room was right behind the speaker. It did not end until after 10pm. The guests who attended it continued to party until 5am. I want my money back! This was absolutely ridiculous. We wanted to relax and enjoy ourselves. Instead we couldn't even sleep.

Very old. Doors don’t latch, ants in the hotel rooms, just very old and rundown. They say remodeled and I give you that but it feels like lipstick on a pig.
