I loved the room, the location, and the staff was very nice and helpful.
Briana, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Hotel!!!

Did a short staycation with my friends and we loved the hotel!!! It was quiet and not too busy. Rooftop pool had a great vibe and the view was beautiful. The only thing I didn’t like was our hotel room view was great there was just a giant dumpster that took away from the view a little bit. Overall had a great time and definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nice place to stay in Tempe.

Z, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our stay was okay. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff doesn’t bother you. The rooms are soundproof which is nice not hearing noise from nearby rooms. The issue is the past few times we’ve stayed at an AC Marriott in Arizona the hotel’s restaurant has been closed. Very inconvenient and frustrating.
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Almost Heaven

There were three reasons why I didn't give this property five stars. The staff, the room and the food were great - but the location is a little weird - sterile and not at all welcoming from the outside - I felt like I was in a dystopian novel. And instead of parking at the property, you have to drive a couple of blocks and then walk back and forth to the hotel in the blazing heat - NOT convenient. And lastly, the lighting in the bathroom is so dim that it's not great for us ladies who need to apply makeup. But I can't say enough about the staff and the room - that part was excellent.

Very nice property with excellent location. Great and friendly staff. Very clean.
Patrick, 4-night trip

Beautiful room, not much privacy

Perfectly located, beautiful hotel! However, you should be 100% comfortable with you partner. The sliding bathroom door has a good 1" of open space between the wall and you can hear EVERYTHING.
Joseph, 1-night trip

Liked the location . Great friendly staff especially Rene at the breakfast area. Loved the open bar and lounge area. Wish there was a microwave in the room and more fresh fruit options in the market like bananas or a complementary continental breakfast.
