    One of the TVs did not work.

    The breakfast was fantastic. Lots of choices for food. The location of the hotel was ideal. Thd proximity to the. Ampus was ideal. The size of the room was fantastic. Although we didnt utilize the kitchen, it was nice to know we could have bought groceries.

    Excellent. Was a great place to stay for ASU graduation.

    Pool is only 3 ft deep. I guess that is easier when on the roof. But it was fine. Just kind of funny. And little kids will love it. My kids are all over 6 ft -- hence the funny part. Also wish towels were slightly larger.

    Breakfast was what is expected. A bit cozy if you hit the rush hour! Hotel was quite full as we were there for graduation. Location is absolutely perfect for graduations in the stadium or basketball arena. Just a short walk away and easy to avoid all the stadium parking traffic as lots are on the other side of the stadium. Could not have worked out better for our purposes. Also we had a suite with a balcony where we could see the fireworks for the College ceremonies we weren't attending too! Very festive and fun. They also had nice afternoon treats celebrating the grads. Hotel did a great job.

    I wish the sweet was a little bigger with more space between the couch area and bedroom area for the price.

    The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic and my family really enjoyed the pool/spa area.

    I didn't expect to pay $15.00 for parking and it would be nice if the property allowed the hot tub to be open until at least 11pm, especially on a Saturday night.

    This location is extremely close (10 minute walk) to the start of the Arizona Rock and Roll Half Marathon start line. The hot was a very good and open until 10pm.

    The room was filthy and run down. The kitchen drawers were filthy and had crumbs in them. I was bit by bugs while sleeping in the bed. Not happy with our stay. Especially during a pandemic. I will never return to a residence inn again.

    The location is the only way to begin to justify the price of this place.

    Beautiful hotel, nice location, parking is a major problem.

    They charge $15 per night to park in their lot. If there is a major local event, like an ASU football game, or a production at ASU Gammage, you can't find a parking spot, and you paid $15 for nothing. They should refund your charge if you can't find parking in the garage that you paid to park in. Won't stay there again because of this issue. The hotel is wonderful other than that, but it's a big deal to me.

    Great location, fabulous breakfast, friendly, knowledgeable staff, clean room, comfortable bed, enjoyed the full refrigerator, with freezer, microwave and dishes/dishwasher. Really enjoyed our stay, except for one thing. And it's a non-starter for us to stay there again. The parking.
