| - We arrived about 3 hours before check-in (4pm), which I agree is a bit early to get there, but what can we say, it was a desirable flight time. I think 4pm is a little bit late for check in, most places are 3pm and you can get in around 2. They offered that we could go out to the pool, but lets be real, Scottsdale in August (117 degrees outside) does not exactly scream lets go to the pool where the water is a refreshing 90 degrees! So we asked if there was a room we could upgrade to that would be available ASAP, and the girl at the desk tells us that we are getting the only king bed available in the whole resort as it was. REALLY?!?
So we finally get checked in at 3:45 and head over to our room which was extremely spacious and nice and cool since the AC was at 75 degrees (I immediately cranked it down to its low end - 60 degrees) and threw our luggage in the closet. I went to shower and the only light over the tub is a heat light! Needless to say I opted to shave my legs in the dark.
On our second day there I realized there looked to be poop smeared on the back of our bathroom door. It wasn't a huge streak, nor was it blatantly obvious, or I think I would have noticed it immediately, however, I'm not sure what else would be on the bottom part of the back of a bathroom door that is brown.
The room was cleaned every day and we even got fresh towels, even though I kept folding ours and leaving them on the rack. We got twp bottles of water every day which was nice. My biggest complaint: we're paying a $15 per day per room "resort" fee and they can't even put blackout curtains on the door in the bedroom. We had a nice jacuzzi out back, but it is now AZ state law that they can not have them filled and must keep the door that leads out to it locked because some girl drowned a few years back... So the locked door has blinds on it, but it is still bright as noon in there right after sunrise. Blackout curtains in the living room and on the windows in the bedroom, but NOT on the door? UUUGGGGGHHHHHH!
