Traveling to Phoenix on business I always try to stay near the airport and I-10...the Hilton Garden Inn is close to both. Great rooms, very spacious with a small kitchen (small refrigerator, sink and toaster), living room area and separate bathroom (there is a door).

There are a couple hotels near this property, but this one always seems to have a good price for the room. There is a Waffle House in front of the hotel, which is, well, a Waffle House. If you go over the interstate heading south, there is a McDonald's on the right.

If you are looking for a few more dining options, head over the interstate then left on Broadway and head to Tempe/ASU.

Our room was great value--spacious, well-laid out, and comfortable. The bed was extremely comfortable and the lighting was attractive. This HGI serves dinner as well as breakfast. The staff were friendly and check-in was a breeze. Close to the airport and rental car returns.

The only downside was the noise outside our room from the pool area of the neighboring hotel.

I booked a king size room from a AAA review, staying at this property for one night prior to a fllight. Upon arrival we were given a room on the second floor, the hallway,carpeting and elevator was showing signs of age. Upon entering the room we noticed the air-conditioning was not working, the front desk was prompt in reassigning us to another room. This room was showing wear and tear. The carpeting was dirty as were the drapes and windows. Upon retiring for the night, when we turned down the sheets both the bottom and top sheet were DIRTY. The front desk sent up another sheet (which was rumpled and dingy).
When we cheked out the front desk just shrugged and said "sorry 'bout that" When we asked to speak to the Manager I was told he was not available. Please beware if you book a room here, It is not up to Hilton standards. AAA should reevaluate it's rating.

I spent nearly a week at the Garden Inn traveling for business. The hotel was extremely easy to find, only one exit down on I-10 from Sky Harbor Airport and close to ASU and the mall & movie theatre in Tempe.

The staff was extremely courteous and personable, as I would expect from a smaller hotel. The restaurant was adequate, I found breakfast to be the best part of dining there at the hotel.

The room was clean, well appointed and spacious. They offered both wired and wireless internet access to suit anyone traveling with their laptop.

The cost was a bit pricey but I think it's definitely a matter of getting what you pay for.
