Do not book this place! Tons of hidden fees. It was not advertised that you have to pay extra if you want a towel to use and that there’s no parking on site. Such a scam. We didn’t even stay there and had to book another hotel and lost our money. They refused to refund.
3.9
One of the most comfortable bed ever. Safe and quiet. I think the mini breakfast could offer more variety. Great for couples.
3.9
Have stayed a number of times. Nice rooms, location and good price.
Only problem frig didn't work bummer. No one on property to address any problems.
No front desk.
3.9
Overall average experience. Unfortunately our daughter couldn't swim because of a perv that was lurking. Not the hotel's fault. Our bathroom door handle was broken. Customer service said they would repair it after we left. Breakfast is grab-and-go, and not impressive at that.
3.9
No front desk, no parking for blocks,, I'm handy capped. No valet parking. No employees on property. Rear Security gate open all day and night. Comp breakfast was literally 2 rotten pears and some cheap plastic danish. Now the GOOD STUFF, been here many times under previous management. Great comfortable little spot. Very nice comfortable rooms. Nice location, well maintained property. Pool area and closeness to downtown Scottsdale is a plus. And yes after all my b*tch'n, I've booked a room there again for next week. They rescheduled ELO concert for next week! As long as you are not worried about parking , no front desk, breakfast or the security gate open all night... it truly is a nice place and a solid price. 6

Very difficult to get to room. Upstairs that are very steep and no cart for suitcases. Parking OK. Breakfast a joke, one sweet waffle and empty coffee pot. Robot broken in foyer. Room was ample, bring your own kleenex!
3.9
Definitely different. No reception desk. Everything done on line like an air B&N. Nice facility, very nice pool. Restaurant on premises (which I didn't find time to try). Electrical system in the room seemed inadequate. Multiple power strips for basic items. The coffee maker kept overloading the power strip it was plugged into, making it virtually useless. No closet... Clothes rack in the admittedly very large bathroom instead. Television set up for streaming services only. Better bring your passwords.
3.9
The hotel was nice and clean. The bed and pillows was very comfortable. The AC was very strong. However, the restaurant /bar was non-existent. There is actually NOBODY on the premises of the property. They allow animals(which is fine) however, the dog that was in the room next to mines barked all night long every time someone walked past the room.
I was charged a $30 cleaning fee and told I left the bathroom “very dirty” which is a lie. I was there for 2 nights , how much of a mess cause the bathroom has been. For those reasons I will not stay again when I visit and I don’t recommend anybody staying here.
3.9
Amazing stay, comfortable, clean, quiet, beautiful, great location and easy access. Assigned parking and the restaurant On property, Hai Noon 5 stars!!!

Where do I begin….
I understand the times are changing into no personal service from humans but
Check in was awful. Everything is automated. We were tired from a long drive and had to do everything online. I did not feel comfortable putting my information out there, but that was the only way we were going to get access to our room. if I were elderly and did not know how to be tech savvy, it would have been very frustrating.
The parking was very confusing no parking for the restaurant or you will be towed. You have to park in the back in an alley. Our room was all the way towards the front doesn’t make sense at all. The Wi-Fi code never never worked the two days we were there. No one around besides a robot to solve the issue. Black towels were provided to remove make up or they were going to charge you if you stained the white ones, but we were only left one black towel for three women. Some of the guests were right outside the gate where we had to walk out smoking marijuana with a little boy less than two years old right next to them, that wasn’t The Hotels fault, but should’ve been monitored.
The grounds inside the gates were very nice. The pool was nice, beds comfy, loved it was pet friendly. Centrally located a plus
3.9
My unit was not given a parking spot, in middle of nothing Scottsdale. The shower head was so low profile and absolutely no pressure that I was practically hugging the wall to get under the stream. I was provided with a quarter roll of TP sitting in the tank, actual holder was missing. And the TV didnt work.
But it was clean, safe, very adorable, and the tiny espresso thing in the room was delicious.
3.9
We stayed once before and had a great experience but upon our return we informed a LOT had changed. No parking space and told to park in a garage 5 minutes away or be towed. Feels scammy due to there being several spots open the entire time we were there. Do they get some sort of kickback from the garage or towing co? The breakfast that is supposed to be included was literally non existent. We were told people steal the food or take multiple portions for the large groups staying in one room. Dogs swimming in the pool. One guy found feces in the pool. Rocks used to prop gates open so ZERO security. Order at the counter to eat breakfast at the restaurant. No wait staff anymore.
This place went so down hill it’s astounding. The only 2 positives are the room is clean, comfortable and inexpensive and the bar with really great staff makes amazing cocktails and delicious food! They are not affiliated with the hotel though.
Would def not stay again and would not recommend.
3.9
The parking was a joke..No place to eat..only a upscale Japanese restaurant..could not use coupons unless you wanted sushi.Nobody to check in with. The property area outside was filthy. None of the maids spoke English. No room service..cleaning without extra charge of 10.00 per day.
3.9
Good for a quick overnight stay
3.9
very difficult check in with $ 200 security deposit and assigned parking spot which they do not tell you until later so can get towed...... welfare hotel... i will not ever repeat
3.9
If you’re looking for a quiet stay. This isn’t the place. Now again I did come summer time, so I’m not sure how other seasons will be. But every night in my 6 day stay there was music blasting at the pool. I’m a heavy sleeper so I was able to sleep through it. Also, All rooms face the pool. The tv in my room didn’t work.. again not a big deal for me as I didn’t really watch tv but I would have appreciated if it worked. There’s no elevators, it’s a two story so not too bad but if that’s a thing for you, then there’s none. I was supposed to have black towels in my room because of makeup removal. My room didn’t have any. I followed the instructions and made sure not to stain the white towels cuz you’ll get charged. I appreciated the 25 dollar food credit you get if you stay longer than a day and the free coffee and small breakfast you get per day. Overall it was a decent stay.

The motel was good for the cost. Beds were good, patio area was nice. Breakfast was good, but restaurant was not designed for people who got up early and were going to head out for the day - it opened to late. We understood that we got 2 beverages a night (one per person), but found out we got a discounted drink-the same one every night.
We asked for early check in when we made our reservation. They said they tried to accomodate those requests and to let them know when we arrived at the hotel (about 2 pm). At that time, they said it would be about 45 minutes -they were cleaning our room now. After 2 hours, we called to see when our room would be ready - 1/2 hour later we finally got our room. Our room was clean, but the bathroom was missing the air vent cover in the ceiling and there was no toilet roll holder. Seems like pretty simple maintenence items to repair.
My number one complaint is the amount of personal information that you need to stay here - for our safetly. Upload a selfie, not once but twice; we charged your credit card, but now we need you to send us a copy of it; a front and back copy of your drivers license. You need to sign an online document that does not have doc u sign. I am renting a room for a few days, not a home for a month. This is all for my security. I need 3 codes for the motel - one for the app to get your food; a room code; and, a gate access code, yet the gates are unlocked most of the day & night.
3.9
The property itself was great but the pre-check in process felt over the top. Multiple texts and emails for information that was provided at the time of booking. Felt like a lot of opportunity for identity theft.
3.9
Avoid this at all costs, property looks nothing like the images provided and there are no staff there.
You have to go through a very lengthy check in process which is all done online, prior to the visit. The only support you have there is a screen at the reception
3.9
Check in was very easy room was clean pool was refreshing all around great experience

The keybto this hotel.is the amazing restaurant and bar located inside of it. Hai Noon and Hidden Gem are amazing. Hotel is decent.

I stayed the night for business. I arrived after 10pm. and looked for the front desk. There was none!! I looked around and searched for were I could find someone. There was a bar open in the back and asked and was advised there is no front desk. That's it. Nothing more! I went to the front where I entered and found a sign on the ground saying "4-10pm check in" with a number underneath which I won't disclose. There was a Kiosk next to it. It was not helpful. So I called the number in the sign. I was greeted by a woman that sounded like I was calling a call center with a lot of typing noise in the background. I was then informed after I gave my name that I needed to check in on my phone. I was like what is this. So I did and the woman was not very helpful. Other are you "done", "did you get it." This whole part of the stay was absolutely lousy. No instructions on the wall. or a tutorial of any kind. I get a text, after finishing checking in, with welcome by the owners with a passcode to get into the room. No map how to get to my room. Or to advise how to get upstairs. I started to question if I should proceed with my stay. Finally found the room and entered using information provided. Room was nice. Clean. TV usage was a joke. You have to provide you own log in to watch anything descent. I was there with my daughter and room only provided 3 smaller towels. They need to learn a lot about motel hospitality.

Incredible place to stay at

Absolutely will be coming back! Everything you need right in this one little spot! Loved it
3.9
There was no one on the property at all. Restaurant staff (separate for hotel) were inundated by requests for assistance. No one present in facilities, security, check-in and the contracted cleaning staff simply shrugged their shoulders. My fellow guests helped me with info except no one got their TVs working. Witnessed a man who broke a window and beat his wife in front of 2 kids. Kids swimming unaccompanied. People coming and going through exterior gates blocked open.
The liability to the owners must be overwhelming!
Shame- the renovated rooms are glam & spotless!
3.9
When we first got to the room the bathroom was dirty.
3.9
Not enough parking spaces if property is full
3.9
There was no breakfast, the room wasn’t super clean, there were pets hair in the bed
3.9
Perfect. So very clean, all virtual check-in/out, comfy bed, plenty of towels, great view of the courtyard and easy to use TV connection for whatever apps you have. Couldn’t be more happy - especially for the price. Highly highly recommend.
3.9
We tried to get our free breakfast and coffee but the app said our code was invalid; when we called customer service, they said the app feature was “down” and they didn’t know when it would be up. When we tried to ask more questions, they hung up on us and then wouldn’t answer subsequent calls. We were disappointed because we absolutely loved our stay, and this was a bad note to end it on. (Also please note the confirmation text they send says you’ll get $25 in food vouchers but we found out that only applies if you stay two or more nights! They should include that bit of important info when they send the text. Their communication skills need work.)
3.9
Great place, reasonably priced, cute retro vibe, great location
3.9
I'll never not recommend this place to anyone looking for a good place to stay. The grounds are beautiful the room was modern and both were clean!
The housekeepers not only give 100% while cleaning the rooms but 100% when dealing with guests which makes it feel more welcoming.
Check-in was simple, fast and effortless. Check-out was the exact same. The restaurant on site was cute and good for a light snack or a good caffeine recharge. Our beds were clean, comfortable and the shower was amazing with lots of space to unwind while washing the day away. This property looks just like the photos online and you shouldn't be nervous to book here you get what you see and that is why we'll be back!
This is an all digital experience and I did not have any bad experience during my stay dont let the bad reviews about it being digital scare you we all have our situations sure but I am sure 99.9% of the guests will agree with me.
3.9
Very clean, enjoyed the easy check in experience.
3.9
I like the hotel. The pool area is lovely. There is scarcely anyone about to answer questions of any sort.
One reads of the threat of towing if one parks one's car in the nearby parking lot, but that doesn't seem to happen.
3.9
First time ever using a Hotel that has no human interaction on site and for the most part it was great. The only negative we had was our room was right by the entrance the employees use and for some reason they were loud and goofing off while we were sleeping before the sun was up, around 4:00 a.m. Would stay again.
3.9
Amazing
3.9
The worst check in ever. There is no front desk and no staff there to help for any reason. We had one towel for a double occupancy and the one cleaning staff treated us like we were lying when we said we only had one towel.. She made us open the door and show her that there were no towels in the bathroom. The Internet didn’t work so no t.v. We did not stay because we were unhappy and when I text with the phone number of the property… they said they would not refund our money. They basically said too bad. We will never go back to this property again. We also will be writing reviews. Absolutely horrible service.
3.9
Convenient location. Loved their modern rooms
3.9
Checking into the property is only via on line. There is no person at the property that can check you in. A kiosk is provided to talk to a person for assistance. After requesting such help, I waited 10 minutes before a person answered. That person had a deep accent which made it extremely difficult to understand her. Her instructions for checking in did not work for me.
