So you're looking for a resort in Phoenix, right? While the JW Marriott is nice, your money can go much further in this valley of the sun.
Overall, the Marriott looks good, but when you did under the surface, there's not a lot there. The spaces are big but without much character.
Some of the rooms are probably very nice, but mine (for $200 per night) looked out on a concrete wall. Unbelievable, yes? Believe it. At all costs, avoid odd-numbered rooms in the 3500 wing. They all look out at the same wall. No sun. No view. Very disappointing.
And then there was someone else's hair in the sink. Also very disappointing for a top end resort.
Finally, the room decor doesn't really fit with the desert theme. It's more of a french colonial thing going on.
For a great experience, I'd recommend the Phoenician.
