Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests expressed significant dissatisfaction primarily concerning cleanliness and service, with multiple reports of unclean rooms, outdated facilities, and negative interactions with the staff. Complaints included issues such as dust, hair, and mold in the bathrooms, with front desk personnel seeming overwhelmed and uninterested in guest concerns. However, there were also positive mentions regarding the cleanliness of certain rooms, the friendliness of the staff, and the decent breakfast options offered. The pool area received mixed reviews due to ongoing renovations. Overall, while some guests found redeeming qualities in the services and amenities, the overriding sentiment was one of disappointment.

Pros (+) Comfortable & clean room with mini fridge & coffee maker, good variety at complimentary breakfast, all rooms open onto the inside pool/grass/aviary area, staff friendly & helpful. Lots of chairs, tables & chair setups, lounge chairs at pool.
Cons (-) Mattresses were a bit softer than I like & pillows were maybe shredded foam rubber compacted into a small pillow size, but were okay for sleeping.

Pros (+) Everything in the room was clean and decorative. Very spacious and comfortable. Coffee, teas, bathrobe and ironing board in the restroom was a plus. Checkout's at noon!
Cons (-) You had to go outside to the ice machine in order to use a microwave and it was cold outside. Didn't wanna warm up any food that I brought.

Pros (+) Friendly helpful staff, lovely well-maintained courtyard with lush green plants, pool, and aviary with chirping parakeets. Great bar and lounge, amazing dinner. Minutes to Phoenix Zoo, Botanical Gardens, & old town Scottsdale. Good parking. Considering location & overall quality of our experience this motel is an amazing bargain.
Cons (-) Tub and shower a bit outdated but clean and functional.
