My husband and I just had a staycation here this weekend and we absolutely loved it! It is so centrally located in Old Town Scottsdale that you can either walk or take a very inexpensive cab ride anywhere. This hotel has had a lot of owners and incarnations since it was originally renovated from the old Days Inn of yesteryear to the sexy, sleek James Hotel back in the early 2000's that I wasn't sure how I would feel about the most recent version of this hotel. I'm happy to say that, while it's no James Hotel, in our opinion it's the best version since the James Hotel.
It was clean, the staff was friendly and amazing, the rooms were clean and fun, and even though it may not have been the size of crowd they were expecting at the pool, it was perfect for us. The music was awesome and not too loud. We will definately do this again! And best of all, we were able to bring our very well behaved dog with us as the hotel is pet friendly! Bonus!!
