This is my third trip that I stayed at this place. I love the fact that it's new, just open in October 2013. First time I stayed on the 8th floor, 2nd time was on the 9th and this time was on the 7th. I like my 9th floor room the best. Great view, low noise level. Maybe because of spring training the hotel seems a lot noisier this time. Lots of kids running around late at night.
The hotel is decorated with modern contemporary which fits my decorating style. I rather pay more for something than cheap on poor quality. The pool, gym, and patio lounge is on the 10th floor. Roof top offers fantastic view of surrounding ASU campus. Breakfast is on the 1st floor in the morning, around the corner from the elevators. Don't eat the scramble eggs. I don't know how most people eat scramble eggs but I don't like scramble eggs to taste like watery rubber. I usually get some yogurt, some fresh fruit (if it looks fresh), cup of OJ, and a piece of toast.
I will definitely stay here again until this place starts to deteriorate. With ASU campus around the corner, the late night drunk college kids regurgitating their evening drinks is a common scene. The plus side is the eye candy around the ASU campus. Food around this area is geared towards college lifestyle. Have to travel north towards Scottsdale for quality food.
