The front desk said they were giving me a full refund and I have not received it. This was the worst experience of my life. Please do not go here. The woman at the front desk literally smacked my hand away from her computer when I was trying to ask about something. The rooms are horrible and dirty and run down, and the whole place is terrifying. It is not safe here. I could not be there. Absolutely horrific experience.

The pool area was fun. Kind of like a resort feel. Nice coffee shop. Close to Old Scottsdale There’s maintenance that needs to be done with the rooms and elevator. You have to request anything through to the app. I requested towels and they said I will get towels within 24 hours and it never happened.

The location of this property can't be beat. I really appreciate the architecture, fountains & cacti. The loud noises at night, weird noises from the AC & flashing light from the modem or router made it a little difficult to sleep.

This hotel was horrific and I travel frequently. I feel personally scammed by this hotel; DO NOT STAY HERE. On first appearance, the hotel looks like it will be enjoyable. You walk around back to two beautiful pools. WRONG, WRONG, WRONG! This will be your worst nightmare. When we arrived, we were texted a code to enter the dirtiest room on site. It straight up looks like a motel. The paint in the bathroom tub and toilet was peeling. The bathroom had a door on rollers that didn’t stay closed because they couldn’t take time to level it. Additionally, you could hear everything your neighbors did through the wall. Our neighbors got home at 4am where they decided it was a great time to make love and ruin our family’s night sleep. We were all up and disgusted. We heard everything they said and did. There was zero privacy. The back door leads right out to an area with loads of people when you stay on the bottom deck where we were. So unless you want people looking at you while you relax, you can’t open your windows and have to sit in the dark. Overall, do not stay here. It was not worth a penny of the lots of money we spent here. You have to pay to park in their own lot. The worst part is we thought this was going to be nice so we paid addition money to check in early. I didn’t sleep for more than two hours due to hearing through the walls. I never have had a worse experience.

Love the vibe of the property ~ super modern, pool area with DJ and bar is fun…also nice chaise lounges and sitting area around pool. Property itself is beautifully landscaped with bougainvillea everywhere. The room had a cute patio with a table and landscapes nicely. Room itself was clean and suited our needs. It could use a little tlc with paint touch ups, etc…but definitely nothing to deter us from staying again. The restaurant at the property is darling and food was great!
