FOUNDRE Phoenix
We staycation here all the time. The rooms are so cool. The people are friendly. They charge for parking now and we got a $200 boot because we didn’t realize it. (We got there after midnight and were really tired) so be careful of that. Paying over $300 for the room and getting a boot was frustrating ...

Hyatt Regency Phoenix
No, it was not clean. We complained and they took care of it. They also reversed some of our charges that we charged to the room.

Sentral Sol Modern
The aparthotel was better than expected, the pictures don’t do it justice and the views from the lounge areas outside were amazing. So many amenities to pass the time and staff was very friendly and helpful in getting us checked in.

Placemakr Downtown Phoenix
The facility itself was clean and had everything we needed. We were however, disappointed to find out that the pool never gets sun during the time we were there (February). We ended up purchasing additional resort passes in the city to use their pools. Nice facilities but not ideal at all.
