I really loved this hotel! The studio-like rooms were cute and equipped with a kitchen with everything I needed, including a big fridge. There was an amazing breakfast every morning, and the location was very walkable. The staff provided exceptional customer service. The only drawback I encountered was with the parking. I wasn't informed about which areas of the parking garage were reserved for hotel guests versus non-guests. Unfortunately, I received a citation for parking in a reserved spot, as I mistakenly assumed it was meant for hotel guests. So, just be cautious about where you park in the garage.

Beds were very and uncomfortably hard to sleep on. Non of us could get a restful night sleep during our whole stay. Love the mini kitchen, so convenient with dishwasher. Everything else was superb, working and clean. Employees were right on the job when something was needing attention. Rooftop pool/hotub/gym/fireplace was great. Beautiful weather and sights at night. However I don’t believe we’ll stay again due to the hard beds.

Very clean, actually very quiet for me and my two boys 12/9. Super spacious and thought out things in rooms like the swivel TV. They had cookies and lemonade stand during the day. Parking so close and cheap. Only thing we were slightly disappointed about was the pool. It looks full size in pic but is only 3ft. We still were able to play and cool off. Great views and rooftop area though all together. Def staying here on game night again for ASU!
