Would have rated it a 5 if I was staying longer. But, alas, only an overnight biz stay. Pool area looks amazing, with outdoor bar & spa! Room was nice, staff was friendly & helpful. Location is perfect if you are looking for a night out in Old Town. Tons to do.

Not fancy but good enough

The hotel is old. The odd thing is there are no phones in the rooms. The room has old furniture. The bed is nice. The pillows are fluffy. The refridgerator is on the floor with the coffee pot on top. Its not a bad room juat not fancy. They charge a $100 incidental for each room.

Solo Scottsdale

Wasn’t planning on staying in a hotel on my solo trip as I was staying with a friend but it didn’t work out. I was able to get early check in, pool view, they were very accommodating and great customer service. The food in the restaurant was very good! Love how close it is to old town and all the shops
