This mall is very mediocre. When you compare it to Fashion Square, Chandler Fashion or even some outdoor malls like Desert Ridge and Tempe Marketplace....it doesn't seem to live up to its name. It is called Paradise Valley Mall after all. I have been coming to this mall since the 80's and feel it needs a major renovation. The mall itself is very dark inside and several stores are left empty.
Here are the things that I do like about PV Mall: great for moms to visit with their kids; family restrooms and nursing area. They have a weekly story time that you can sign up for which includes a free ride on the carousal. They have a train that runs throughout, perfect for little kids, a few good anchor stores, a Starbucks inside and that's about it!
