The Westin Tempe

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel with great amenities. In good location"

Arizona Grand Resort & Spa

2/10 Terrible

"The room we stayed it wouldn’t lock & i told a house keeper she said she would send a security and the security never came. The sheets from one of the beds were dirty. Also every time we wanted to go in the oasis they would ask for our room key even though we had wristbands. Also the floaties for the lazy river were always low on air, theres usually a person putting air on them & this time there wasn’t. My family & i go at least 5 times a year because we like the fact that is always clean but this time we had really bad experience"

Marriott Phoenix Resort Tempe at The Buttes

6/10 Okay

"Go to the room and the patio door wouldn’t shut all the way or lock so we had to wait for someone to come fix it. Patio table had a cup full of cigarette butts and beer bottle caps in it. Two bottle caps on the floor in the room as well. Parking is $15, resort fee is $30, no complementary breakfast but they have a buffet for $27 a person, alcoholic drinks will run about $15 each before tip. Pool is not regulated by staff so no one is checking wristbands to ensure it’s only resort guests there. We didn’t put ours on and saw at least a dozen staff who said nothing. I would imagine this is well known in the area and locals are just wandering in to use the pool during the day. Also, I had $20 in charges from the bar on my room that were not mine. It was my room number but a different name. Luckily the front desk took care of it. Staff is friendly but I doubt I will stay here again."
