I stayed one night on Sunday for work because the price couldn't be beat since Monday was a holiday, Columbus Day, but I don't stay during the week since it is in the suburbs and far from Downtown and the office. The price was affordable allowing me to coming in Sunday and get a good night's rest instead of taking an early morning flight on Monday.
The best thing about the hotel was the saltwater pool and it is a newer modern hotel.
The breakfast was tasty and the hotel has listened to the reviews and had 2 hot items - egg frittata with bell peppers. There was also a freshly individually made egg white scramble by a hotel staff. She was very accommodating I asked for no green onions and another guest after me requested for whole eggs.
The hotel offered a full breakfast but there was no oatmeal. There were 3 choices of eggs - hard boiled, egg with scramble, and egg with frittata. For the price I didn't expect meat and the other yelp reviewers fore warned me. Also oatmeal was missing as a breakfast item.
The fancy espresso coffee maker was out of order and they just had it serviced last week but it broke down Sat there was a full house. They should have a back up machine for the size of the hotel.
There is no bottle water for SPG Platinum guests in the rooms. The hotel is green and has filtered water. The filter works since I didn't taste the typical Arizona tap water.
The hotel had nice extended stay amenities such as dishes and cookware but there was no ice bucket and only one ice machine on the 1st floor.
I did not experience the evening cocktail hour. It is M-TH 5-7.
