Small outdated room. Fun feel to the property. Great service at check in. Cafe/Bar on site but limited hours. Close to downtown Tempe.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

This is not four stars by any stretch of the imagination. The rooms are tiny. The restaurant/bar has odd hours, and there is nothing within walking distance in 100+ degree weather.
