Nice long weekend
We drove out from Phoenix to enjoy a long weekend away from the heat (and also to get in a SeaWorld and beach weekend). We made a good choice with this hotel. Excellent location, super friendly staff (all around), nice rooms and a wonderful pool area. Best hotel breakfast buffet (for this class hotel) I have ever seen, and it changes daily. This hotel gets a lot of use as there are kids everywhere (including my 3), but the over all condition of the property is very good. We had a few small issues with our room (closet sliding door came off track, dresser drawer was off track), but these issues were taken care of quickly. If I had to raise a concern about anything, it is the width of the parking lot slots. It seems that, like the airlines, make the spaces smaller and you can fit more into the same area; the slots barely fit my Toyota Sienna mini-van. For the extra $ a night that we were charged for self parking, the parking area could have been planned a little better. Not a show stopper in any way, but it was hard to get the vehicle into the slots and it required several forward/reverse iterations. Will we stay here again during our next escape from Phoenix, YOU BET !
