My kids and I stayed at this hotel for the last weekend of the Renaissance Festival in March 2014. Kids eat free with a voucher from the front desk. Their breakfast buffet is an incredible spread, and you can make your own waffles. If you don't want the buffet, you can order off the menu. There's really no reason to go anywhere else- and we didn't. We took full advantage of the kids-eat-free policy. We went swimming both nights we were there; the pool is heated and lit all night. The ambiance was resort quality with large and small desert palms all over. You can use it all night long if you wish. Really romantic and great for kids of all ages. The beds were comfortable and plenty relaxing for us. Ordered room service the last morning we were there- which they were very prompt, the food was warm and delicious. The whole hotel is immaculate. You couldn't get a better hotel. The bonus is the highway is right next to the hotel, so it's easy to get anywhere you want around Phoenix. We will stay here every time we visit Phoenix metro.
