| - I'm trying really hard not to be harsh. Honest. But this place has so many negatives and so few positives.
Many of the reviews here mention the noise. They just don't give enough bad credit to the soundproofing. This place is horrid for sleeping. I stayed here Memorial weekend. The room was clean but certainly not elaborately decorated. Needed more towels. Bathroom so-so. Nothing about the room or property decor stated "upscale" or "resort".
Pool needs more lounge chairs, they were all hoarded and taken very early in the day. Misters would be a small but welcome addition to the Oasis bar by the pool. The Oasis bar was frequently understaffed. The poor person stuck there, "Jaimie" was very pleasant but overwhelmed by the work load. The concierge in the lobby was flat rude to several folks on situations I eavesdropped on. Front desk on check in was nothing special.
Back to the noise....Walking down the hallway rooms 160's, 170's, etc., my friends and i could and did stop and listen to any number of conversations thru the closed doors. Mind you this was standing in mid-hall, not up against door. Amazed at how poor the soundproofing. At night the place was a crashbox of noise. Simply unacceptable on any level. And certainly poor for a Resort/Spa property.
My comments to the front desk regarding noise were treated as, " Ho-Hum. Heard it all before. "
When asked about Phoenix by coworkers and friends I'll have too, in good manners, steer them far away from this facility. Which is a shame. There is no way I can recommend this place at all. Too many fine properties, good pools, and nice staff at facilities in Phoenix area.
This is definitely not one of them.
