When we were planning our trip to the Phoenix area, we were on a modest budget. Therefore, we made reservations at the Super 8 Downtown. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised at how close the Super 8 was to the downtown center and especially the Metro Light Rail System. Then, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and General Manager/Owner. When we went to our room, we expected to open the door to a modest motel room. To our surprise, we walked into what semed to be a 4 star-5 star room complete with the following: king bed, luxurious furnishings, refrigerator, microwave, flat-screen tv, and wi-fi internet. When we walked into the bathroom, we felt like we were in motel heaven, complete with: luxurious granite sink countertops and shower walls, a deep tub that was big enough to seat two (comfortably and romantically), hair dryer, iron and ironing board, coffee maker, and some very nice complimentary amenities. The complimentary breakfast, while average, provided everything we needed to start the day. After staying at supposedly "nicer" motels and hotels, the quality and price of the Super 8 Downtown Phoenix gave us more than our money's worth and made us feel GREAT! We have already recommended this property to family and friends over the higher-rated competitors just up the street.
