Nice staff. The bathroom counter was not cleaned and there was what appeared to be coffee drips and little spills all over the counter. As other reviewers have mentioned, the daily parking fee is not called out or mentioned by front desk staff. The individual that checked me in even asked if I had a vehicle, and I said yes and they said you will need this parking pass. That would have been the time to clarify or mention there is an additional parking fee and not just glossing over it even if it is in writing elsewhere. There are nicer properties for the same daily rate if you add up this property's daily rate and their daily parking fee. The hotel is in a nice proximity to the convention center, but having the front entry doors locked 24/7 is a bit concerning and I have never seen that at any property I have ever stayed at.","guest_initials":"Darren J.","date":"2026-02-01T19:37:05.69084+00:00","date_formatted":"February 1, 2026"},{"id":"6f21712a-3022-4969-b0c4-373a6300f052","rating":10,"text":"My stay at the hotel in Phoenix was very very good .
