Overall a very nice place. Setting is nice but a bit far from other restaurants for the more adventurous who have the desire to sample other parts of Tuscon. They do a good job with ambiance and service. The staff goes out of their way to be helpful.

The big problem we experienced in March was kid noise. The pool areas are like daycare facilities making it impossible to sit by any pool other than the lap pool. The lobby and restaurants were also echoing with screeching and squealing kid noise at times. We need more adult only hotels at this level.

They definitely gouge you on fees. The $39 dollar per day resort fee is a little greedy. You can tell they feel guilty about it by the 5 minute long speel you get about the fee at check in.

The bar was nicely done and the food and background music there was great. Outside the bar was a great place to relax in the morning facing the rising sun.
