| - Really enjoyed our stay with family here a few weeks ago. Surprisingly quiet location on the north side of Scottsdale right off the 101 - close to tons of good restaurants, shopping, Taliesin West; everything we wanted to visit.
The lobby shows an impressive Western style w a grand fireplace, rustic furniture & high wooden beam ceilings. If you get a chance to pop upstairs, you can see a beautiful aquarium as well. The verdant grounds are worth the stay - delightful garden settings w winding pathways, lush plantings, foot bridges & a fabulous Flintstones-style pool area, replete w waterfalls and big faux-boulders! Sounds corny, but it was actually cool.
The rooms were reasonably priced, clean, well appointed & big enough for 2. Sliders onto the small balcony brought in nice breezes. The room layout seemed a bit chaotic, too many doors and angles per square foot. However, the small kitchen was well equipped, including a full size fridge and a 4-person dining table. A good place to stay for a week or so.
The staff was outstanding - very helpful & friendly. The concierge was really generous w her time telling us about local restaurants & good deals around the area. Would definitely stay here again.
