Perfectly located for walking to the PHX Arena. Lots of cute shops, restaurants and coffee nearby as well as a grocery store and CVS. The hotel is very old, large step up to the bathroom, old school like 1899 decor. If I go back I’d want to get a Star room like Mae West or Marilyn Monroe. Ice is on the 3rd floor. Business center/ gym/ Pool were closed.

Disliked: Amenities
The staff were professional and friendly. The location is great if you’re staying for a concert or convention. However, there is limited parking and the parking garage is on the other side of the block. The trolley is noisy at night and the walls are super thin. It was hard to sleep especially whenever other guests are talking in the hallways; the sound echoes throughout the building. Other than that, the hotel was perfect for our one night stay for our concert.

It’s an amazing old historic hotel. I would never stay anywhere else in downtown Phoenix. I love the hotel and have used it three times. The staff is friendly and nice. The location is great. The bars and restaurants within 5 blocks are plentiful. But the rooms are small and don’t have modern furnishings so if a guest needs a fancier place then this probably isn’t their spot.

This is a mid range hotel, not anything special but it was in a great spot. No air conditioning so that may be a problem in the hotter months. Clean, safe, good spot to crash. Parking is rough though, only parking garages or street.
