Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort
The room smelled pretty musty and in room dining needs improvement. The fries weren’t very warm when they came and the food was pretty small for what we paid. That may just be standard with resort.

Talking Stick Resort
Room was clean and spacious. Toiletries outside the shower were all half full and clearly been used before our stay. Daily resort fee of $28 for in room unlimited water, coffee, and tea is too high. It’s cheaper to buy multiple drinks downstairs at casino.

Hilton Garden Inn Phoenix Airport North
The staff and the room were very nice and clean etc. I will say the breakfast was pretty stale and picked over (the eggs and bacon) and the coffee wasn’t hot and this was at 7:30am. It shouldn’t be $20. It should be complimentary or the quality and variety of the food should be much better
