We had a good overall stay at the Graduate in Tempe. The staff were really friendly and welcoming, which we appreciated right away. The hotel was clean, though it does feel a bit worn in places and could use some updating. Our room was a bit tight for a family of four, and the AC unit was very loud, which made sleeping a little challenging. On the plus side, the pool was great and definitely a highlight, especially with how hot it gets in Phoenix. All in all, a solid stay with a few drawbacks, but the friendly service and pool made a difference.

The room was dated and the term garen view in my case was one tree, telephone poles and old houses. Staff was wonderful. I liked this place to "putting lipstick on a pig". It was an on Howard Johnsons and many things remain old and dated.
