Liked: Cleanliness
Overall the property was very clean and the rooms nicely appointed. Good location to ASU and various eateries actually within walking distance. Room temp control good though rather noisy. Amenities were so-so. Bathroom soaps, etc. were Dove. Paper bathroom supplies were the worst I've experienced in a long time. Some covered hangout area would have been nice. Lumpy mattress.

The hotel looked much nicer in the photos than it actually is, which was a little disappointing. The bathroom door did not close, there were spots on the door and floor, etc. The toiletries were at the bare minimum. You could also hear the noise from outside, on the street and in the hallway.

Not Happy about check in......

The front desk clerk charged me $145 for the room. The amount quoted online was $127. When I asked about the difference, she indicated it was a deposit and would be refunded. That has not taken place. Not sure what that was for, but it seems like a scam.

Great stay at Tempest

Cute boutique hotel with a fun vibe. Clean and surrounded by a good restaurant (Salut) and some quick meals too(Noodles and Subway) plus Chompie's is a short walk. Best is the Four Peaks Brewery around the corner and a coffee/tea shop next to the Brewery. Hotel staff very friendly. I walked to the AZU stadium, just over a mile, for a conference. Easy walk.

Marathon Stay

Front desk personnel were very helpful and friendly. Room was spacious and location was awesome for the Rock N Roll Half Marathon. I just walked to the start line in the morning. Also being located so close to a cool coffee shop (Infusion) and brewery (Four Peaks) was a big plus. Just have to walk about two blocks. Called down to the front desk two nights in a row from the hotel phone to get a wake up call and got no answer was about my only complaint.

No Closets for hanging dress clothes!!!

Only thing I did not like is we flew in for graduation at Asu and there were no closets to hang our dress clothes. Definitely a deal breaker when we go back for Masters degree ceremony. Also no cream for coffee. Everything else was great. Employees all very friendly and very helpful. Thanks again.

Not the greatest, but nice enough for another stay

We had two rooms. One door would squeak real loud when opening. The second room door would get stuck when opening. You’d have to ram your shoulder to open and it sounded as if you were slamming the door when closing. As for the bed frames. Don’t know how many times we hit the corners with our legs as the frame protruded out. In the fridge of one room, a styrofoam container with food was found from the previous occupant, we assume. Overall, a nice place to stay.

When traveling through, will stay here again. One item that needs correcting is there is no place to hang cloths in the room. Invest in free standing clothes rack if nothing else.

Good hotel for a 2 night stay.

Clean hotel close to ASU campus. Although the hotel offers no breakfast, coffee is available in the lobby. Rooms are clean and extra towels are a plus. The room is a bit dim at night with limited lighting. Room does not have closet with hangers, so drawers must be used. Overall, a good hotel with a good location.

great place

Staff is very friendly, hotel is clean and location was close to everything I needed. Only downside was that it was very bright and lots of road noise. Blackout curtains helped, but still alot of light coming into the room from the hallway (through cracks in the door). Room was very clean and large. Air conditioner sounded like a lawn mower driving through the room during the night but I ended up turning it off and opening the window, which probably contributed to the traffic noise. It was still a great stay and I recommend this hotel.
