Omni Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Montelucia
Resort food/drinks were pricy but nothing crazy. Pools and hot tubs were nice (adult and non-adult). Our favorite restaurant was Centro but Prado had a good vibe (Crave was great for a quick coffee/snack). If you go be sure to take advantage of gelato happy hour. Most of the resort had a great view ...

Room was clean. The hotel is dated, but very convenient. Kinda like a motel but rooms are accessed by an interior hallway. It was good for the price.
