I just returned from a business stay at this hotel. The hotel is charming and lots of history here. We had one of the wait staff tell us some of the stories of it's past. The staff here are friendly and accomodating. The restaurants are reasonably priced, and the food and service were very good.
The fact that there are so many other restaurants (and shops) within walking distance made this a great place to stay. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. The location was perfect for my business needs.
There are a couple of negatives. First, the elevator was out in the West end while I was there. It did not get repaired during my entire stay of 4 days. I'm not sure who they contract with for elevator service, but 4 days without repair to me says 'find a new vendor'. There are three floors, and lugging your suitcase up and down the stairs was difficult.
The other negative is the heating and cooling system in the rooms. It's loud, and it's sporatic. While I was there last week, Arizona had an unprecedented cold snap. There were many guests, including one of my collegues, who complained about having no heat. When the system did come on, it kicked on and off continously, and the noise level was high.
Finally, the rooms felt dated to me. Carpet and furniture was older, and they still have tube tv's.
In summary, the 'pros' of this hotel outweigh the 'cons', and I will definitely stay here again when in the Chandler area.
