We stayed here two nights, at the beginning and end of our trip to Arizona. Despite booking the hotel on-line well in advance I got two different rates $116 for the first night, $152 for the second + tax. I'd say that the first rate is closer to the real value of the room - we debated looking for another less expensive hotel for the last night and canceling the second reservation but didn't want to go through the hassle, especially since we were traveling with a baby.

What you get for your money - convenient location close to I51 but not close enough to hear the traffic. Easy 30 minute drive to the airport or car rental drop off. Good quality, clean rooms, comfortable beds, excellent breakfast (already described in detail in other reviews). Good area.

We were upgraded on our first night to a two room suite (because they were overbooked) which came equipped with two washrooms (one wheelchair accessible), flat screen tvs, fold out couch bed. Very nicely done. Only complaint would be that the view was the stairwell heading up to the second floor and several mattresses that were being stored(?) there. On our second night we had a standard room with a single king bed - also very nice (but not worth the extra $40 we paid). We overlooked the pool and the jacuzzi was running all night.

Front desk staff were very helpful and had good recommendations for restaurants -you're within walking distance (about 1 mile) from several restaurants - try Carlos O'Brien's. A crib was requested and a playard was provided - mattress too hard for a baby to sleep on.

came for spring training. Price was a little higher than last year but alot of work has gone on. Now triple sheeting and flat screen tv and ipod clock radio.

Great pool area with flowers. Area is a little noisy but stay in the back or near the front desk for quiet.

free drinks in evening were a nice touch. didn't realize that when booking.

free wifi was great so could work while relaxed on bed without having to sit at desk.

free breakfast was more than i could dream of or need. they had waffles, eggs, potatoes, bacon, bananas, yogurt and juice and coffee.

overall great stay.

Start with the positives: Housekeeping service was first-rate and the hotel location is convenient. The king non-smoking room had a comfortable bed and a plasma-TV and couch for $150/single. The room had both refrigerator/microwave.
Shower and bathtub were better than average.

Continuing with the negatives: no morning newspaper at your door - in fact usually no newspaper on the premises in the late morning, at all. Breakfast room small and usually crowded with no pastries - had to settle for banana/yogurt. Coffeemaker in room was the one-cup-only variety rather than the usual (4-cup) pot. Location of hotel is intersection of two (Northern & 16th Street) heavily traveled and noisy roads - ask for a room facing the back of the property. Request for a third bath towel daily was ignored. Registration staff was uninterested.

Bottomline: aside from proximity to a convenient freeway, this
facility has little to offer.

Innsuites of Phoenix on Northern Blvd near 16th street is where we always stay when in the Phoenix area. This time due to a coupon we had received from them, we were able to upgrade to a suite that had a separate bedroom with two double beds and a living room with sofa bed. There were two bathrooms so the person in the LR could use the bathroom (with full tub/shower) without waking up those in the bedroom. We were there just one night so didn’t have time to take advantage of the small kitchen, or outdoor swimming pool. Innsuites has a great free breakfast room, the best we’ve seen, with waffles, hot and cold cereals, eggs, hashbrowns, fruit, yogurt, etc. They also have free computer use for the internet in the lobby, which is very handy for those not bringing their own laptops. The sofabed was uncomfortable for an older adult with arthritis, although it would have been fine for a kid. This hotel is quiet because not next to a freeway, and is convenient from the airport, just take Hwy 51 north to Northern. Close to foothills and parks for hiking.
