Walker's Get away

The motel was excellent. It had amenities (such as refrig and microwave) that other top hotels did not offer. The rooms were all upgreaded. Location wasn't bad either. I highly recommend this motel.

Not a bad place, but site needs to do a better job of telling you if this is outdoor access or not. I don't like to stay in places with outdoor access and I could not tell at all that this was an outdoor access, very dissappointed when I checked in

What a find!

If you think any nice hotel in Scottsdale is expensive, think again. The property is located along side a wonderful park that extends for miles. The pool is even long enough to swim laps.

This was a perfect 1 night getaway for my wife and I. Location was perfect. Tons of eats and shops.There is a nice park across the street to walk around. The staff was great. Checking in and out was a breeze. Room was small but clean. The pool is well kept up and spacious lounging. I will be coming back for sure.

Great Hotel - Great Value

The hotel is a great value for the money. The rooms were clean and well appointed. The staff was generally very nice and helpful. The location is very good, very central for the east-side of Phoenix and south Scottsdale. The hotel gets 5 stars for value for the money,

Great low-key hotel

This was a business trip, and I stayed here for four nights. The room was very clean, well furnished and the beds were comfortable. The pool area is really beautiful. I had an issue with my hotel keys not working upon check-in and later found out that the lock's battery was dead - I had to wait in the lobby for about 20-30 minutes as they fixed the issue, but luckily I wasn't in a hurry to get anywhere. The hotel's location was great for me - I was traveling to downtown Phoenix, Glendale and Tempe for work, and each place only took 20 minutes or less to get to. Old Town Scottsdale is only 5-10 minutes away, and there are some wonderful restaurants there. Overall, very nice hotel, and I would definitely stay again.

Didn't realize it was a rehabbed motel. The pictures make it look much nicer. The rooms are nice, but the rest is disappointing.

The hotel and the staff were wonderful. The pool is just fabulous and so is the gym. The room was nice and clean and the cleaning staff came every day to refresh our room could not be more pleased with the place. Would definitely stay there again.
