The room was decent and it was clean. The property is old but seems like it has been kept up pretty well. I described it to my girlfriend as a small step up from Motel 6. Biggest complaint is the neighborhood noise. Not sure what the issue was, but we could hear things pretty clearly from outside.

Very accommodating

We had travel issues and needed to cancel the first night of our reservation and the office staff was so understanding and then the next day when we had to arrive well before check in they kept our bags safe while we found a restaurant to wait in. Very nice staff, comfortable room. The location was great for downtown. We loved that the TVs had streaming. We would definitely stay here again.

Ms Sally was sweet and friendly. Check in was super easy as well as check out. We were a couple of blocks from the concert venue and across from food and drinks. Our stay was very comfortable. We will stay again with the next concert.

This is really an old two story car motel that has been cosmetically updated. The decor is sort of funky mid century industrial. The bathroom seems to be original. The location is great! The room was clean, the AC worked, towels were fine. A good value-you get what you pay for, perfect for us for one night.

There was a dirty wash cloth left hanging in the bathroom, aside from that. The room served it's purpose of being near the event we were attending. Easily accessible walking distance to anything you need. Will most likely stay here again

All I needed in Phoenix

Safe and secure downtown location. The man who checked me in (the owner?) was very helpful letting me check in early. He was also very helpful coming to my room to find out why the tv wasn't working, and repairing it. I was able to walk everywhere that I needed to go downtown and found good places to eat.

Was unaware of construction goings on the street immediately affecting the parking lot. Also, renovations to the rooms, lobby and outer corridors were made cheap, not complete and disappointing.

The place and area look way different online. I would compare the hotel to a Motel 6 and hotel located in an area where they are building and off the downtown area. Looks sketchy and smells a little off my taste. Good for a quick one night stay, but next time I will pay the extra and stay at a Hyatt, Sheraton, or Westin. However, I do have to say the hotel room was clean, staff at check-in was very nice and helpful, and tv and wifi on point!
