Great Pick! Perfect Location!

I just stayed 5 nights at the Tempe Mission Palms and had a very nice stay. The hotel was very clean, well maintained, offered many ammenities, and had a great ambiance. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The hotel has a very open feel to it ...not your typical chain hotel that requires you to use your room key to get anywhere in the hotel. Has several outdoor fireplaces for sitting enjoying the great evening weather along with a hotel bar and restaurant. The courtyard was very beautiful and well manicured. The hotel seems to be filled mostly with people traveling for business, as was my reason for staying there. Very convenient to the airport and just a block off of Mill Ave. in Tempe where all of the restaurants and shops are ...you can walk to anything you want. Starbucks is right on the corner, ATM machine with no service fees directly across the street (Co-Op ATM, AZ Federal), and bars up and down Mill Ave. for whatever you're looking for. The pool was very nice ...had cabanas, a full-service pool bar, hot tub, had a tennis court with basketball hoops. You can check out rackets and a basketball at the front desk for free. And if you run/jog, you can just dart over to the campus of ASU ...just a few blocks away. There probably couldn't be a more convenient place to stay in Tempe. Also, there is a business center and internet coneections in the rooms. Room was nice and clean, updated. No complaints at all here. Great place, good price, and great location.
