Hampton Inn & Suites Phoenix Downtown
Cut our Sedona trip short to see Phoenix. We chose this hotel from rates on Expedia. It was in a quiet area, clean and convenient. Short walk to Chase arena, and Jefferson, a street full of restaurants. No bar at night only beer and wine. It was a beautiful day did not have an area to sit outside ...
