We were looking for a reasonable priced, pet friendly, hot breakfast, fast Wifi, and a heated pool hotel in the Phoenix area. This hotel was the most reasonable priced. And a great location. Just one exit up the 17 from the hotel had every restaurant and department store you could need. It was very convenient and stress free staying here.
The hotel was well maintained with a classy lobby and professional staff. We stayed in a suite that had a living room at the entrance with a flat screen Tv and a couch that was also a pull out bed. The bathroom and kitchen area was in the middle. Kitchen included a sink, mini fridge and microwave. It was enough to get by for left overs. The far end room was the bedroom with another flat screen TV and very comfy bed. The kitchen area and bathroom was all tile floor and a perfect area for our blue French Bulldog. The bedroom end of the kitchen had a door we could close and we put a puppy exercise pen at the other entrance to the kitchen to create a accident safe area for the dog when we left for the day.(see picture) It was a nice room with a great set up for dogs.
The pool was half indoor and half outdoor. Not the worlds largest pool but big enough to have fun splashing around. The spa was on the inside half. The pool was heated but only to high 70's I would guess. It was a little chilly getting it but once in the water, the temperature didn't bother me. The outside half of the pool had a few tables and chairs but really not a large area. It was okay as long as you don't expect a vegas style pool.
The Hot breakfast yummy. Included sausage, eggs, waffle maker, bisque and gravy cereal ... ect A little bit better than your average Holiday Inn Express hot breakfast. The afternoon kickback had alot more food than I expected. There was salad, chips, nacho sauce, Meat to throw on the nachos, Hot dogs, Baked potato's and condiments, Vegetable and 3 free alcoholic drinks. The drinks were beer, wine, generic cosmo and margarita mixes. All this and they also include all day long complimentary soda drinks and popcorn.
The hotel offers a lot of bang for the buck. I wish they had more Drury Inn's in my area.
