Absolutely loved the hotel. The staff were so nice and helpful. The area was convient and the view from our room was wonderful. The only complaint was the construction around the hotel while we were there. It did make getting in and out a little difficult but I would still choose this hotel if I returned for another trip.

Ironman Arizona
I did Ironman Arizona 2022 and hotel is perfect for the race. It is so close to everything that it helped my family be able to cheer me through out the day but be able to take breaks and be comfortable all day. Highly recommend if you are doing the race. Also great hotel if you are in town for anything else.
