More fountains than Rome
I recently stayed at the Arizona Grand for four nights for a conference. 
First and foremost, the staff were exceptional. Groundskeepers said a cheery hello, kitchen and wait staff could not do enough for us. Most importantly, my packages were waiting for me at the conference center when I arrived. At most hotels, I am forced to hunt down packages that are delivered prior to the conference. They also did this at a minimal price. (And all packages were shipped back just as easily using the business center.)
I was given a room in the Sedona suite. The resort is expansive, and I followed a bell hop, who was driving a golf cart, to my room (I had a car). There is plenty of free parking.
The room was nice with a separate living and bedroom area. The king bed was super comfy. The internet was very fast. The room was spotlessly clean and cleaned nicely every day. I also liked the high end shower amenities (especially the Gilchrist & Soames body butter). There is a cash mini bar which I never used. I do wish they had an empty fridge for people who bring their own drinks (but obviosly I understand that mini-bars are big money makers). Two small things about the room: the safe is located on the top shelf in the closet, almost beyond reach for me and I am 5'5"; also, there was a lovely fountain right outside my room, but the chairs on my patio had torn and dirty seat cushions. Quite surprising.
I really appreciate that the fitness center opened during the week at 5:00. I am an early riser, and enjoyed the variety of equipment at the center. Easily, one of the nicest fitness centers that I have ever seen at a resort, with plenty of treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, stair climbers, rowers, and weight equipment (even a basketball court and lap pool). I also got a massage at the spa with Roxanne. There is a lovely waiting patio with a faux stream outside the spa area - very relaxing. Roxanne did an excellent job and was very sweet.
By far, the food at the conference was some of the best I have ever tasted - bone in porkchop for lunch, are you kidding me?? Fabulous.
We had a business dinner at the on-site Rustlers Rooste. You will need to drive or call for a golf cart, because the restaurant is located at the top of a steep hill (dynamite view, though). It was a bit loud for a business dinner (there are bands playing), but the service was good and we loved the magician.
By the way, anytime we called for a golf cart, someone picked us up within one minute. Of course, you should tip the drivers, so keep that in mind if you are on a budget.
We also ate at the on-site Aunt Chilada's. There is a path across the front lawn, so it is an easy stroll. Dinner and service were both very good.
There are several small pools scattered throughout the resort besides the waterpark. There was a pool outside my room, which actually was quite large enough for swimming laps. There was also a lovely built in jacuzzi. There are also water coolers located near the poosl, which is a nice touch. I used the pool/jacuzzi almost every day (even if only for 10 minutes).
I did not realize until check out that a $3 housekeeping gratuity had been automatically added to my bill. I travel every week for work, and had never seen this done before. I always tip housekeeping anyway, so they must have really loved me. I guess I made the housekeeping staff happy, so I can't complain. Just be aware of it.
The hotel is located directly off Baseline Road and there are lots of dining options nearby if you choose to go off resort.
In general, I loved all of the fountains located throughout the hotel grounds (dozens and dozens). I thought the resort was well kept and the landscaping was beautiful. It was an excellent choice for our convention.
