content: I am a Marriot girl, so I love most of their properties because you know what you are going to get.  The Springhill Suites by Marriott in general are more upscale than Fairfield Inn by Marriott, but not as sweet as the full line Marriott.\n\nWhat I loved about the hotel is that they offered complementary shuttle to and from the airport which is just a few minutes away.  You simply call and they send a shuttle to promptly pick you up!\n\nThe shuttle driver will also take you to local spots like the Mill St, not to be confused with the Mills Shopping Center, the zoo or the Tempe \""beach\"", at no cost to you!  \n\nThis is a bargain since the shuttle costs between $16 and $25 for a one way trip.  If you have a car rental, they provide free parking.  \n\nThe hotel is new, the rooms are done in a \""simple elegant\"" decor.  There is an outdoor pool, whirlpool and exercise room for the business traveller.  \n\nThey do not offer free wii-fi in the rooms, however.  You are chained to the ethernet at the desk.  \n\nThe science center is within walking distance.  \n\nThey offer complimentary breakfast in the morning, and a fully stocked pantry with drinks, snacks and even ice cream that you may charge to your room.\n\nRooms come with fridge and microwave (yeah - left overs)!  \n\nAnd, it was a great price especially with my AAA discount!\n\nI would stay here again if I was here on business but not on vacation - not a lot of sightseeing to do on foot - and you are at the mercy of the shuttle driver's schedule!
