I stayed here with my Hubby while he had a conference at the hotel.
Our room was super cool, it reminded me of a rustic Westin. The trails around the pools and rooms are awesomely landscaped. The property is very pretty. The pools were quiet and a great spot for day drinking while getting a tan.
It was just over a mile walk to Camelback Mountain, a beautiful hiking trail. So if you are active and like being outside give that a shot!
The location is also just a short cab ride from plenty of dining and if you feel like it and if you bring some flip flops, its a nice mile, mile and a half walk from dinner back to the hotel property.
The gym was just fine, the gift shop was well stocked and the restaurants and bar on campus are only slightly over priced.
