Great rate and location

Nice remodeled rooms, easy check-in. Great location on the edge of Downtown, low rates which include free parking- can’t beat it. My only issue is the AC units are quite loud- couldn’t hear the TV without blasting the volume.

Not safe

I was not able to stay due to the fact that it was not safe for my daughter and I. There were a lot of drug addicts and we we harassed. It was very unsafe for us

Great

Stayed here for a concert at Arizona financial theater and it was perfect. Felt safe, clean, and comfy. Didn’t have to worry about parking at the venue and the walk only took us like 5 minutes and felt safe walking back even though it was dark

You can throw a rock and hit The Van Buren. Concerts are better when you just have to walk across the street at the end!

We chose this property for the proximity to a concert venue. It’s a no frills budget hotel. A good value, clean, comfortable enough, with decent beds, large TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, everything in working order. Easy, friendly check-in.

You can tell it was an upgraded motel but for the best. It’s cute and clean, however, we needed to wash our clothes and the machine was a chained machine in the walkway. I wasnt expecting anything luxurious but didn’t feel expect homeless in the alley and around the corner and across the street. Great for the night.
