This hotel had broken Air conditioners in majority of the rooms. Our room was 79 degrees for 2 hours before we couldn't take it anymore and we were told they are all like that. So, it seems they have under performing A/C equipment. Thankfully Norma upgraded us to a room with 2 a/c units. If you enjoy cold A/C then do not book with this hotel. Staff was friendly and helpful, its not their fault the hotel has bad equipment.

I liked it that it was downtown. I didn’t like the room it stunk mold and it didn’t have cold water in the shower. Bedding look dirty and sheets had stains on it. I don’t think it was worth what I paid. Hotel needs updates and remodel.

Nice, clean toom with very comfortable bed. We just needed a place to stop over after a late flight
We slept well and were able to even grab breakfast before we headed out in the Am. Only complaint was that there wasn't anything cold to drink for bkfast besides OJ..Would have just been glad to get cold water. But we will likely stop here again.

Bed was too high too thick and was sinking so I had a bad back ache after the trip.
Huge cockroach and insects getting in my bags it was quite unsettling. The AC is super loud you cannot turn the fan off unless you turn everything off.
Sorry but I will definitely not come back. Learned my lesson and will pay extra for comfortable hotel.

The place was clean and pretty well maintained and, for the price, was a good value. Breakfast offered a good variety and even had some hot choices (though my favorite hot choices - scrambled eggs and sausages - were only offered once while I was there). There was a bad smell from the bathroom, but I think it was the drain system and not something the hotel could do anything about. Housekeeping came by every day, which seems to not be a regular thing anymore. There were some inconsistencies in service (I couldn't find the ice machine - the outdoor sign pointed in the wrong direction - and there was no one at the desk to help me; there was no coffee at breakfast my last day there and the orange juice was mostly water), but, overall, still good value for the money. Being next to I-10 and just outside of the main downtown area, the hotel is very convenient to many sights, restaurants, and shopping areas and a very good location for day-tripping.

The customer service was really good, but I would really recomend that they have security around the premises. There's a lot of crackheads, and shady people around the area. The smell of marihuana was really strong around the area. The rooms need to upgrade the AC, because sometimes the small AC doesn't cool the whole room.

I don’t recommend staying here if you wanna suffer of a heat stroke. The AC DOESNT WORK, when we first walked in the room was burning hot and then we turned on the ac to see if it needed a bit of time to cool the room, so we decided to leave, by the time we came back the room was the same temperature. We ended up having to ask to borrow some fans from a family member and it still was so hot. I ended up feeling so sick after that because I felt dehydrated and worse part is that I’m pregnant. Again do not stay here especially with this Arizona heat.

First of all, it’s not an Inn or a Suite. It simply a motel. When I walked into the hotel, the air was completely show us approximately 80° in the room. When I went to the restroom, I saw a baby spider in the sink and one on the bathtub. The phone did not work at all. There was no way to contact front desk. I’m not too sure why, because it was plugged in, but there was no dial tone. The aesthetics of the room was nice, my only suggestion would be to invest in some sheets that are not scratchy.

The staff were pleasant and efficient. The complimentary breakfast offered scrambled eggs, sausage, gravy, Fruit Loops, Raisin Bran, milk, bagels, orange juice and coffee. I had only eggs which were good.

My room was clean and well equipped.

The exterior of the building does not make a good impression. The only specific observation I can make is the landscaping around the pool, which struck me as dead grass and/or bare ground. Maybe the buildings need fresh paint -- something not gray. But t I think they are architecturally obsolete.

Great price for the convenient location. Everything we needed for our 1 night stay. It looked like everything had been renovated, which was nice. My only complaint was the bathroom shower drain pan was too small and not enough room for the walk in shower to drain so water poured out a little. We used the towel bath mat to barricade the water so it wouldn't run all over the bathroom. Everything was clean but maybe a little more cleaning of the floor because when we first walked in there it was a little dusty in the corners ,minor but I noticed . Staff was nice and breakfest was good.

Pro’s: The room was clean and in walking distance to multiple food options as well as downtown and The Rialto where our concert was. The fridge and microwave worked well. The bed was comfortable. The was no evidence of bedbugs. The breakfast was decent for what you paid for the room.

Con’s: The room had 2 doors. The door to the pool didn’t close unless it was deadbolted. There were at least 2 rooms where people were selling drugs or sex out of. There were a lot of homeless crackheads about. At any given time there were around 5 wandering around. There did not seem to be any ability to get linens unless housekeeping was on the clock. The staff didn’t keep up with the breakfast bar very well.

Room smelled like mold, shower was leaking into the floor. Little gnats in the drains. Floors very dirty- gray so they look clean but don’t walk in them. The sheets I think were clean but they were stained and looked dirty. There is no blow dryer or coffee maker and the noise was interstate and police activity noise. Suitable to stay overnight for business no frills but needs some maintenance. The bed was sadly very soft and sinking not what I need to sleep well. It appeared the place was huge but they had few rooms occupied or available making me think some have been condemned or something. I mean what is the deal? Anyway I didn’t check out the amenities I was busy the rest of the time I was there.

Ana is the manager sweetest person you’ll ever meet besides that I am pissed by now. Get back to the room and on the way I see a shorty walking my direction tiny squeaky voice says I have your room ready sir ……I’m floord….. I mean I couldn’t believe it this kinda stuff never happens but this night it did super service over here at the lion just wanted to say thanks to Ana for keeping such great employees and especially want to thank a Miss Norma you did it girl you deserve to be recognized for all that you do!!!!
