The hotel provides free transportation (usually with a 10-15 minute wait) via SUV to both of those locations which comes in very handy and economical. The hotel is also across the street from a shopping mall which includes CVS and a Trader Joes which is convenient. The employees at the hotel were all incredibly friendly and accommodating, but very slow so get ready to wait around. \nMy friends and I stayed in a regular double room for one night and then a two bedroom villa for two nights. The double room was average- standard for a Hilton. The villas were pretty much an apartment. Spacious fully kitchen stocked with water bottles and dishware, washer and dryer, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pullout couch, a full patio, and a dining area. The furniture is outdated and I wouldn't necessarily call the interior decoration nice, but it does the job. I would highly recommend for a large group or family- the extra space compared to a hotel room made our stay much more comfortable. A big con about the villas is that they are in a separate area detached from the main hotel. You will need to be driven by the hotel from the main lobby to the villa which gets quite annoying especially if the driver is out transporting other patrons to Old Town. \nThe only meal we ate in-house during our stay here was the breakfast buffet. It isn't highly extensive but has the staples- eggs, waffles, bacon, bagels, omelet station, fruit, and cereal. The food is pretty good making it worth $20 per person especially if you have the time to spend there. \nIf you are looking for a luxury high-end hotel, then this isn't your spot (even with upgrading to the villa room). However, if you are looking for something practical, friendly, and in centrally located within Scottsdale, this is an ideal choice."^^ . "0"^^ . .
