The McCormick Scottsdale

4/10 Poor

"Underwhelmed. Pictures on web nicer than actual. Smelling cigarettes from employee areas permeated entrance. Horrible service for dinner-ended up leaving site to go out to eat for lack of service. Rooms clean but old. Not inviting place to stay beds needed replacing. Not worth money spent."

Arizona Grand Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly. We enjoyed the water park. Restaurants were good. (We ate at the Lobby Grille & the Mexican one). Room was well kept. We just didn't like the sink being in the bedroom area instead of in the bathroom, but it worked out fine since it was not our whole family. It was just my daughter & me. (We were in the Sedona buildings.) My daughter enjoyed the golf cart rides & we walked around the property a bit too. Did not see or experience everything in the 3 nights we stayed. I think we would come back, but I forget if they have 2 bedroom units. We would need that if it was our whole family. "

SureStay by Best Western Motor Lodge Phoenix Airport near Downtown

8/10 Good

"This hotel was all we needed for our one night stay in Phoenix before we flew out early the next morning. It’s ten minutes from the rental car drop off. The room was clean and comfortable and affordable. We would stay here again."

Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort

8/10 Good

"The grounds are beautiful and relaxing. Our room was pretty run down and the carpet was stained and needs a good shampooing. The room has so much potential but needs to be renovated. On the plus side, the beds were comfortable and clean and the WiFi was great! Loved the smart tv with apps to watch a variety of shows while relaxing at night. The service at the adult pool was wonderful and the food was very good and fresh. Front desk staff was friendly. Would love to come back if renovated someday :) "
