People love feeling elite. Starwood Preferred Guest is the first program where I've actually obtained elite status, and the W Scottsdale was the first place I've ever felt like I was treated special as a result. Upon check-in, the W staffer behind the desk was unable to get the computer to upgrade my room, so he graciously offered to send up a beer for my troubles. This sounded good to me. Little did I know, he sent up a bucket of Fat Tires and a bowl of delicious jalapeno popcorn for my troubles. Awesome!\n\nThe room was fantastic. Like all W's, the room was trendy and stylish with beautiful furnishings. The shower was spacious and bright, and I enjoyed the glassed in toilet room as it really made me feel like a king on his throne. \n\nThe hotel is located in the heart of downtown Scottsdale, and for people that like the putrid Giants, their spring training stadium is a 5 minute walk away. For me, this hotel was 5 minutes from a decent restaurant to meet my niece for dinner. It also was nearby plenty of friendly streets for running. \n\nAll in all, for the price, you can't go wrong with the Scottsdale. Now, if only it was closer to the Padres spring training home in Peoria!
