I stayed here as part of an Orbitz travel package. For the price, of around 30 something a night, it was better than expected. Location isn't too bad. It's across from the light rail but it wasn't too loud. Area not too bad, but you need to use common sense about walking around the area at night. The hotel is older but in decent shape for its age. Only complaint about the room is that the window only has a sheer curtain so you cannot block out the light at all; only other problem was thin walls. It sounded like some guy was urinating in my bathroom, the sound traveled so well--kinda strange. The room was pretty big with a king size bed, large desk, sofa, coffee table, and easy chair--practically a suite. Would stay there again.

I wanted to stay in Phx because I live about 2 miles north and did not want to drive home after a Diamondbacks game. All downtown hotels were way expensive, I found the Lexington and it was near the light rail to take downtown, and was considerably cheaper. Reviews on one travel site were not bad, and having lived in Phoenix a good part of my life, I knew the area and decided to stay here. Well, the staff was nice, the room was large...that's where it ends. The room was large, but I would not have sat in the overstuffed armchair in that room for anything. The carpet was badly stained, beds felt like you were sleeping on box springs and practically on the floor!!! Rooms very stark, bathroom was ok if you didn't look at the a/c vent. I really didn't want to stay there but didn't want to move at 10:00 pm either. I already paid, and oh yeah, they "authorize" your credit card for an extra $50 that they refund to your account when you leave.....there isn't $50 worth of anything I would want in that hotel. When I checked out and told them what I thought, they said it would start being refurbished at the end of the year. Until that happens, never again....cheaper for a reason.

I've stayed at this hotel several times and never had a problem till today! I left my camera there went back 4 hours later and its missing. They were rude to me. They down played my camera acting as if it had no value at all. I will never stay there again!

We loved this hotel. We came as a large group, so things could have been very complicated. But the staff were so friendly and flexible- they made it all easy! The breakfast in the morning was great, and the location was convenient if you had a light rail pass. There's a station just outside the front door! I recommend this to anyone looking for a great hotel at a great price.
