| - Pimp my Hotel will not be featured here.
This place is old. It's tired. It's in a neighborhood that's loaded with strip joints. What's good about it, you ask? It's close to alot and I talked the manager into giving me free Internet for the week because I didn't want to pay for it. Hey, I brought a small team here to stay, so they got some good business out of me!
The good things are:
1. They really do a nice job with the free breakfasts. Bless the woman's heart she is patient enough to listen to my attempts to eat healthy, "I'd like an egg white omelet, very little oil, spinach, mushrooms and some ham". She turns to me, "Would you like to sneak a little cheese in that?" I say, "Maybe just a sprinkle". Damn she made a good one for me.
2. Free managers happy hour (but only 2 choices of beer -- this is bad).
3. Close to the stadium where the Diamondbacks play.
4. Short drive away from the mall.
5. There is a LA Fitness and a 24 Hour Fitness nearby.
Cons:
1. No gym (just 2 treadmills).
2. Rooms are old.
3. Shitty neighborhood (think ankle holsters and shoulder rigs).
4. Not much within walking distance (although Carl's Jr. is right across the street!)
All in all, it's convenient to the airport, freeways, and there are free breakfasts here. If you're not in the mood for omelets, there are other options such as cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit, toast, oatmeal, pastries, and pancakes. You can't go wrong with that, sometimes.
