We stay at a lot of different Marriotts due to a family member that can provide discounts. The public rate for this hotel (Feb. 2013) was $259/night. Definitely not worth it. The layout of the room was weird and a little run down. The bathroom is in two sections with three doors - gotta make sure you close them all before using the potty! Shower stall was kind of small, bathroom sink counter was small and cramped and then a ton of space in front of the bathtub - it's just a weird layout. The bed was devine though! Fresh cookies in the lobby at 5pm - don't miss them - they are so tasty. Great service in the bar and the outside lounge area was very comfortable and relaxing with modern firepits. Very close to Old Town Scottsdale to walk to shops and restaurants.
