Well located if you're visiting the Zoo or the Desert Botanical Garden (recommended!), this hotel on the edge of Tempe by the river has a spacious room, nice bed, decent pool on the roof, coffee in-room (and also in the lobby), good breakfast spread - and very nice staff. The parking garage felt a little steep at $18/day, but the hotel code makes it easy to enter and exit whenever needed. A great full service, slightly less expensive choice in Tempe.

The property and room was very clean. The hotel staff was mostly friendly. There was an ice machine with filtered water on our floor which was a plus. 2 bottles of water are provided daily. Housekeeping is available daily upon request. I only had the steak and asparagus with potatoes for dinner and it was pretty good with satisfying portion. The pool area was nice however it was not heated for the cool evening. This was a great value for the stay. It is located about 15-20 mins from all attractions. I would definitely stay here again.

Staff were great pre check in and check out. Late check in not so welcoming. As a woman on her own with a teenager I wasn’t feeling too good about walking a few minutes away in a desolate area, to park my car in a quiet and dark multi story car park. A valet service for checking in this late and parking would be nice. I felt unsafe walking back to the hotel alone.

It was very nice and clean. My room was near the road, and we can hear the noise of the cars. Also, I think the breakfast was expensive with not many options.
