| - I don't really mean to be rude, but the review below mine, from Squaw Peak C., is the review from a person that works for the restaurant at the hotel. I mean, at least that's what I'm collecting from the name of the restaurant being Squaw Peak, the name of the reviewer being Squaw Peak, and the review being 5 stars.
Anyway, let the reviewing begin. I'll start with the best parts and slowly but surely make my to the less desirable attributes of this below-par hotel/motel. First of all, despite being suspicious of said Squaw Peak reviewer, the restaurant is actually really good. I had a tuna salad as well as a vegetable stir fry, and they were both very tasty and hit the spot. The view from up there isn't really like some spectacular thing, but I guess it is a view of Phoenix.
As for the hotel, I've stayed at many Embassy Suites and this one was by far the most disappointing one I've ever rested my head at. First of all, it was definitely some motel changed into an Embassy Suites. All the rooms have doors that are outside and face a courtyard. That wouldn't be that big of a deal if the area that the hotel is in wasn't so sketchy looking.
The actual suite itself was alright. The paint and doors of my room seemed as if someone had drank too many free drinks at the complimentary happy hour they have there and just decided to use the room as a one enormous punching bag. The beds are comfortable but I didn't feel the safest when i was going to sleep because of the whole door on the outside thing.
If I return to Phoenix, I will definitely be looking to stay elsewhere. The fact that I wondered if my rental car would be there in the morning speaks volumes.
