Great location. Spacious rooms.
Great location. Good value. Surrounded by awesome dinning options.
Cleaning staff did not clean our room daily. Their was dust on the lamps and the phone. My mother and son suffer from asthma.

Walking distance to show venue. Great restaurant and slept well in the comfy bed.
Bought parking with our show tickets at 331 E Jefferson and should have used the hotel parking instead. Was way out of our way.

Excellent stay.
I had drinks at the bar at the hotel and the drinks were delicious.
However the drinks were extremely overpriced and the ice left little room for the actual alcohol.

An ok business trip.
The pillows were not good :( Need better pillows.
Pillows. No coffee maker in the room, had to ask for one. Not full breakfast.

Perfect location in the heart of Phoenix
In the heart of Phoenix, this hotel had a perfect location that is close to main event centers, bars and restaurants. Very expensive for the quality. Rooms ok but not “wow”. Front desk staff and valet service was superb.
Overall hotel a little blah-decor not great and room comfort could have been better.

Nice Hotel with great amenities, comfortable rooms and excellent location.
Best location close to the train and sports venues.
They made a preventive charge in my credit card and I paid in cash but did not receive any confirmation of payment or credit card reimbursement.

Fabulous
The room was not made a single time in 5 days I was there.

Great location for sporting events. Unable to check in early or out late. “Resort Fee” seemed unnecessary for this hotel
The location of the hotel is close to chase field and lots of restaurants.
As with most cities, there is a major homelessness issue. Although not the fault of the hotel, the surrounding area was quite dirty and smelly and there were often unsavory characters hanging around. We found the odor on some of the streets to be too strong to walk down.

Very good
I would’ve liked to be able to make tea or coffee in the rom.:)

Perfect location for our needs. Really enjoyed the hotel.
Loved the pool/bar area. Room was fine. A chair was a bit beaten up but everything else was great. Staff sent a few texts to find out how things were going. When I had questions, they texted back responses immediately.
Only upon checking out did I find out if you charge anything to your room, they'll deduct $10 from that bill. Not sure if that's a daily thing or what. We had only charged one small item.

Pleasant
Location was good. Coffee and wine appreciated.
Staff was rude. Have stayed at other Kimptons and always loved the service/staff. My expectations were not met at this location. Room only cleaned once. Had to ask multiple people for clean towels & to have the room cleaned. No one smiled/offered service.

Very nice place.
Room was comfortable and well sized. Staff was helpful and courteous and did a great job.
The daily additional charge for amenities was not well explained and I received no value from it.
