I booked my night at The Moxy off hotwire. It was a great deal for a 3.5 star hotel with a fitness center which is very important to me. When I arrived I was greeted by Gabriel who was witty and genuinely? interested in what brought me. The complimentary drink at check in sets you up for a relaxation. I was impressed with all the things to do. On top of a full bar there are arcade and board games, a pool table, and record player with vinyl with head phones, and bikes to use if you want to get out and about.
I made it to my room quickly after arriving. The style is amazing. Modern but comfortable. There was a love sac in my room. Amazing for taking a nap after a day at the pool. The night life is fun! Probably a little more college than an older crowd would like but those ASU kids are always good for a laugh.
I enjoyed my first night so much that I booked an extra at the regular rate which was still under $100. For the center of Tempe on a holiday weekend you can't beat that. I grew up in AZ but now live in the San Francisco area. I will definitely make The Moxy my regular hotel when I come home.
