    The place was clean, but out dated in my opinion, but I think that is the look they are going for.

    The bed was a little hard, but cant make everyone happy. The elevators were slow

    The young lady that checked me in was excellent. I had to find someone to check me out after standing at the front desk for over 10 minutes along with another customer

    Noisy street noise. Lots of loud, revved up car noise, rail traffic into evening. Bed was hard for my body and pillows were not the softest. Hot tub had so many chemicals there was 6 inches of foam when jets turned on, made my eyes red.

    Convenient downtown Tempe location.

    The coffee in the room... very bad, instant. And the dairy-free creamer curdled in it.

    the decor, privacy, and convenience. Great proximity to Mill Avenue. Got to go watch a movie, eat dinner, park really, and get to bed in good time!

    The fitness room is tiny, the lobby not very welcoming, staff not overly friendly. The girl on reception was supposed to book us for the airport shuttle but when we went to leave we were told that the driver had left and they didn't know why she had booked us at 4.30pm if the driver leaves at 4pm.

    The size of the room was excellent, the beds super comfy, the view from the balcony was nice.

    The hotel's decor was cute, but sparse. Unsure if that is part of the "college" vibe it was going for. Instant coffee (no keurig) in the hotel was an unpleasant surprise. Breakfast is not included and the "food hall" looked like a bar, so we chose not to eat there. We chose this hotel because it was cheaper than other options to stay overnight just to get to the airport the next morning, but it still was expensive for just a place to sleep.

    Location was convenient. Room was themed for the southwest vibe and was clean and comfortable. I appreciated that our parking fee was comped when we were spending less than 12 hours there (and came in drenched from the torrential rains.)

    Problem with computer system at check in. Not meshing with booking.com or other outside booking companies. Took a couple hours to sort our booking out - but they let us go to our room anyway and gave us free drink vouchers because of the trouble. Eventually all good.

    It would be nice to have refrigeraters and microwaves in the room. The bar was okay, but it would be nice to have a better dining area. $5 for a bottle of water is ridiculous.

    The location is perfect for staying overnight after seeing a show at ASU Gammage. The beds are fabulous and the food was really tasty. Great staff!

    Parking was a bit pricey but plenty of spaces and convenient lot.

    Booked last minute and they were still able to accommodate early check in and provided a room with balcony at request with no extra charge. Staff was friendly and efficient and they offered contactless check out which was nice.
