We were in town for a funeral and chose Quality Inn despite the low ratings, mostly due to location. We didn't see any of the issues in Big Mama's review . Sure, it's not the Ritz, but for the price it's quite a bargain. We were more than satisfied with every aspect of our stay. For about the same price as a Motel 6 you get much better accommodations, a more competent/friendly staff and breakfast. We look forward to staying here on our next visit to Phoenix.
