I had a fantastic stay at this hotel while visiting for the WWE Royal Rumble. The staff was incredibly helpful, and the room was spotlessly clean. I really appreciated the bottle of water provided upon my arrival after a long journey. While the noise from sirens and nearby activities was a bit annoying at night, it didn't overshadow the overall positive experience I had. I would definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip to Phoenix.

I had a pleasant surprise staying at this hotel, which offered great value for a reasonable price. The rooms were clean but had some noise issues from other guests, and the bathroom layout was a bit cramped. The on-site restaurant was a nice touch, although breakfast was not included, which was puzzling. Overall, I'd recommend it if you're aware of the potential noise and distance from attractions.

I had a very enjoyable stay at this hotel! The room was super clean and the updated decor added a nice touch. The pool area looked fabulous, perfect for unwinding after a day out. However, being a motel, the noise from the highway and other guests could be a bit disturbing for light sleepers. Overall, it's a solid choice for under $100 a night, especially with its proximity to the airport.
