AaronJB Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported, but I'd be really cautious with a hotel that has a tripadvisor rating that bad. It wouldn't be the Super 8 Downtown, which I'm seeing with a 3.5/5 when I look at the tripadvisor page. Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if you have additional questions.

thereuare Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I too would suggest looking elsewhere, but if the low price is just too appealing, you could see if this same property is offered for the first (or last) nite of your stay and then again for the balance. If so, you could purchase the solo nite in order to 'look behind the curtain'. If you're happy with the results purchase the remaining nites, if not, make alternate plans for the balance of your stay.

Atko Posted January 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Thanks for the replies! I was hoping it was the Super 8 (which would have met my needs for location) but I take your advice and I'm going to pass on this one. I did compare the Trip Advisor ratings and I did see that Super 8 actually has a 3.5 Trip Advisor rating compared with this Hotwire hotel which only has a 2 (I agree that a 2 out 5 is indeed getting "scary!!!! but 3.5 on the other hand I can go with). I wasn't sure however about being able to compare by Trip Advisor ratings though, because while Super 8's Trip Advisor rating is 3.5, that rating is out of 271 reviews, and Hotwire says that their Trip Advisor rating is 2 out 5 out of 100 reviews. So I gather that I can generally rely on that Trip Advisor rating on Hotwire compared against the hotel I think it might be, despite the number of reviews? Or at least not expect such a difference as this? Link to comment

Atko Posted January 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Travelodge Phoenix Downtown. Suited my needs well. I just had to be close to the Talking Sticks Arena in Downtown, and it was walking distance away. Link to comment
