This was a very clean resort. The view from our room was amazing. I have nothing bad to say about this place. Just a suggestion with the pool to clean a little more.

We came for two nights. Dinner, spa, pool and gaming. We ate in three restaurants The food was marginal at best, dry chicken, fish that was not fresh and servers that do not understand customer service. Spa was good...the valet was horrid, and when we would ask any employee for directions or info. about things at resort it was as if we where putting them off! We are locals and have been here before but, this was the absolute worst in every way. Very uncomfortable stay. Too many challenges that happened to mention them all. Needless to say I was shock at the lack of caring for your guest. After spending a few thousand dollars here in two days we do not come away with any good feelings. very dissappointed in your staff....

Not impressed with our stay this go round and we have stayed her multiple times over the years.. we will stay at at a hotel in the area rather than here again… Disappointed in the staff experience from the check in to the room service staff twice who came different people and the housekeeping lady who brought me two pillows cause the pillows on the bed where extremely flat and old!!! I said thank you when she handed them to me and she didn’t even say a word and walked away like I was inconveniencing her asking them to bring me pillows!!! Just all around not a good experience!!!

The room was clean and very nice..and able to check in early.. What didn’t like is some staff members were not very accomplished but others were..the price of our room we felt was expensive and then the added resort fee per day.. We don’t gamble so having to walk through the casino was a bit noisy for us..but the property is nice.

We stayed here for our anniversary. It was our 1st time to Scottsdale and we definitely picked the right hotel! They have 2 fabulous pools that weren’t overcrowded even on a busy Saturday. They upgraded our room and we had beautiful views of the golf courses. Loved the complimentary water and coffee. It was a very relaxing stay, we would definitely stay there again!

Loved how the hotel rooms are not off the main hallways, makes for a quieter stay to not here people walking by. Great shelve space for bathrooms for all products. Love the rain head shower. Overall, best and most creative use of space in a hotel room.

We really enjoyed the outdoor pool/lounge areas on both sides of the resort! We really loved the Spa on the 14th Floor - amazing view of the golf course. Spa was gorgeous, and treatments were amazing! We travel to a lot of casinos - this one is very tight! Food was wonderful and a lot of options to choose from.

The bad: The bathroom door in our room was an unlockable barn door that did absolutely nothing for masking any bathroom sounds. It may as well have been a curtain. 😂. House keeping barely cleaned our room. Other guests would leave their room service trays out side their doors and it seemed like they would sit there all day before anyone took it away. The good: Restaurants were great and great service. Very clean and well taken care of. Very spacious. Everyone was super friendly and helpful.
