Across from ASU Gammage theater, which was so convenient for seeing a show and then getting up early to get to the airport. Front desk staff were the fastest ever at checking me in. Parking was additional, and I wish I could have just added it to my bill. Room was clean and I appreciated the neighborhood view vs the busy road.

Pretty cool spot. Great location. Nice staff. Clean spacious rooms. A bit pricey but not really if you consider the quality and the market prices for much lower quality hotels, this one is a step up in price but 3 steps up in quality. Nice pool area.

We had a good overall stay at the Graduate in Tempe. The staff were really friendly and welcoming, which we appreciated right away. The hotel was clean, though it does feel a bit worn in places and could use some updating. Our room was a bit tight for a family of four, and the AC unit was very loud, which made sleeping a little challenging. On the plus side, the pool was great and definitely a highlight, especially with how hot it gets in Phoenix. All in all, a solid stay with a few drawbacks, but the friendly service and pool made a difference.

I like they are saving saving resources by not having microwave and coffee appliances in the room, but they didn't reduce the price - LOL. We didn't realize a microwave is one the floor by the ice. Make a note of it. The beds we had were queen size and SUPER COMFORTABLE. 💯 Parking is extra - Bummer.
