Our family of five stayed at four different hotels during our spring break trip to AZ in April, 2007. This was leg one of our journey.

We booked this hotel simply as a quick, no frills, two night stay visiting relative before heading off to the Grand Canyon. This hotel shares a drivway with a KMart, which was convenient for family stuff.

This hotel was a little scary to check in at 10pm but there seemed to be adequate police presence in the area. There is no elevator to the second floor, all hallways are exterior, and they don't supply cots, nor was there room for one anyhow. The room had a slightly dirty feel and it was worn (scuff marks on the walls, paint missing in a patch in the bathroom) but overall it was adequate, and cheap for a couple of nights.

On the good side, it has a nice pool area and it is located nearby to many Phoenix attractions. Castles and Coasters is nearby, and the Village Restaurant (located in Kmart's parking lot.) Water pressure was good.
