i stayed at this hotel early this year. the hotel is beautiful! the gym is HUGE and really, really nice... lots of space between equipment, cold water available, music, etc. the pool is great for laps (long and narrow) and the deck area around the pool is lovely (though a little hot during the afternoon heat, but that's phoenix). the staff serving drinks at the pool bar were very friendly. the doormen and front desk staff were professional and eager to help. the breakfast buffet was fantastic. the location is good because: 1) there is a small movie/shopping plaza across the street with some great restaurants and 2) especially if you don't have a car, since the tram/bus station is only a block away, making it easy to get to shopping areas of phoenix/tempe etc. the rooms are VERY nice, if a little small. the beds are like big marshmallows, so comfy! the only complaint is that all morning long the housekeeping staff would let the neighboring room's doors SLAM shut CONSTANTLY while they go in and out of the rooms (ie. back and forth from their cart in/out of room). i found this to be ridiculous and a huge nuisance for an otherwise great hotel.
