    Water leak under fridge onto concrete of room 201
    Jacqueline C.

    Everything was great... except for our room. We ate chicken and pastor tacos with a DoleWhipped cocktail while lounging at LyloSwim Club. Nice atmosphere and great music playing. Quick and friendly service. At the Say When Rooftop Bar, we enjoy the complementary cocktail. Not sure what it was but it was delicious with passion fruit and vodka. The service was not so good. Our food ended up at another table and vice versa. When we got the Mini Pizzas, they were very tasty and a great little snack between lunch and dinner. At the Cartel Roasting Co. we had two different drinks. Hubby enjoyed his cold brew and my CCL as I didn't like it. He did like it a lot tho. He loved the Poblano Burrito and I really like the blueberry muffin. They were able to heat his burrito but not the muffin. The complementary popcicle from the Pop Stand was SO GOOD. You can take the popcicle at check-in or come back at any point during the stay. We both had boozy ones. Ok the ROOM. So dirty. Rug, floor, chairs, you could see the crud coming from the air filter. Water was leaking into the concrete floor from the drink fridge. Water sprayed out of the shower onto the floor and took more than ten minutes to be only warm. The redeeming quakes that we book a room with a fire pit. We used it make s'mores and it was lovely outside.

    Making a cross country journey, we stayed the night at the lovely Rise Uptown Hotel after finding it listed on HotelsTonight. Honestly, we went in with fairly low expectations but this place blew us away. The rooms were super cozy, the retro vibe of the entire spot was spot on, and the pool/lounge area was a great way to relax post-long drive for an hour or two. The area itself is also cool, with some restaurants and bars in walking distance, and a cute little book store we just fell in love with. The rooms were well maintained and cozy as well. Already looking for another reason to hop over to Phoenix to visit the Rise crew!

    Rise Uptown is a whole vibe - fun, funky, and full of personality. This place is exactly what you'd hope for from all the cute things people post online. We were greeted with a popsicle when we checked in (we went with lime + vodka, which was super refreshing after the drive). One of the fun extras is that you get to pick out three records, and they bring a record player to your room. Ours didn't really work that well--kept skipping--but it was still a cool little touch and fun to browse through the vinyl collection. The rooftop bar, Don Woods' Say When, was definitely one of the highlights. It's got such a cool retro vibe, great cocktails, and views for days. We went up there around sunset and could see Camelback and the whole skyline--it was stunning. Perfect spot to hang out before dinner or for a late-night drink. The pool scene at Lylo Swim Club was just as fun. The setup is colorful and laid-back with tons of loungers and umbrellas. It's very mid-century modern, but in a playful, not-too-serious way. Drinks by the pool were solid and the vibe was super chill. Overall, Rise Uptown nailed it. It's got character, style, and all the little extras that make a stay feel special--even if the record player was more for show. I'd absolutely stay here again.

    Roomnet Streaming Menu

    I loved everything about the place, and I mean everything; from the mid-century modern boutique to the popsicles, the excellent staff, and the outdoor bar. It gets a two because of the Roomnet streaming service. It is extremely limited and only offers Fox News as a national and global news source. Expand the choices or dump Roomnet. I don't watch state-sponsored news outlets or establishments that solely endorse them (either passively or actively) As Keenon Rhompson says! "FIX IT! . Please do better so I can return. It's a great place with a great vibe.

    My mom and I stayed here this Mon-Wed in July. I picked this hotel for the pool. There weren't more than 6 people at the pool at any time but that's to be expected on a weekday. They check your bags at the pool entrance. You cannot bring in outside food or drink. The room was really cute and everyone working here is very friendly. I wish the rooms had 2 luggage racks. They didn't have any. You get 2 free overnight parking passes per room. You get 2 free popsicles (with or without alcohol) and each night you are there, you get 2 free drinks (one per person) at their HH. The HH location changes between Lylo and the rooftop bar depending on the day. I tried some fruit flavored mojito at Lylo HH on Tuesday and it was awful. It was so sweet, that even when you replace half of it with water, it was still too sweet. I also wasn't sure if there was any alcohol in this at all. Couldn't taste it, only the sugar. They can deliver ice to your room if you send a text to their number which they give you at check-in.

    Beautiful property with a fun pool scene. Really nice rooms with balconies. 420 friendly and dog friendly. Great coffeeshop and the food at the pool bar is delicious. The nearby cafe and restaurants are also great. Conveniently located in Phoenix.

    We loved it enough to stay 2 nights when we had originally only planned on staying for 1. The property was cute, with a Palm Springs/Miami vibe and awesome pool & pool bar area. There were free popsicles when we checked in, a cool retro-cabin-father's office style rooftop bar and so many cool spots within walking distance. We loved the room decor and for some reason - the towels were extra amazing (big and super soft). It was clean and DOG FRIENDLY , with no additional fees for fur family members.

    I stayed here for my 30th birthday weekend. Check in was wonderful and fast. The ladies at the front desk were very helpful and welcoming. The complimentary popsicles were a nice touch. We also got a voucher for a complimentary cocktail at the rooftop bar during happy hour. They also sent up a complimentary bottle of wine to celebrate my birthday. The room itself is adorable. We stayed in a room with a balcony that was very spacious. Parking was close to the room. And the hotel is only about a 10-15 min drive to downtown. I saw a review that said this wasn't a walkable hotel. It indeed was. We walked to a bookstore, coffee shop, breakfast restaurant, and liquor store during our stay. I don't think they offer daily housekeeping but maybe you can request it The pool area was small but nice with several day bed and lounge chairs. The drinks from the bar were delicious. Overall, 10/10 recommend and would stay again.

    Tuesday check in to an empty hotel, I guess we got the VIP room. Construction started at 5:45 am.

    Ask the Community - Rise Uptown Hotel

    So, is it possible to grab a seat at the pool without reserving a seat through the lylo swim club? Like I'm trying to figure out if I even need to buy a seat at the Lylo.

    If you aren't a guest staying at the hotel you need to purchase a seat as you will need a wristband to be in the pool area. A night at the hotel costs less than a Daybed rental but you won't be able to sit on the Daybeds as a paying overnight guest,… Read more

The hotel is inspired by the colorful and folk art influenced works of renowned mid-century modern architect and designer Alexander "Sandro" Girard. The hotel's bio says he was the main source of inspiration for the design of the Andaz Scottsdale. The property is beautiful to walk around, with all the landscaping, flowers and trees; some of them are marked with what kind of plant they are. There are century plants and aloe and various cacti. The fitness center is located at the spa. It has windows which open up onto the pool, which is a more private pool than the main pool. The staff is outstanding. Savannah, who ran the front desk on my most recent visit, is absolutely amazing and really helped with any questions or small issues with my stay. The restaurant is wonderful for the hotel breakfast. I recommend having cocktails there too. You can see a beautiful sunset from the bar. I love the open design of this hotel resort because it makes you feel like you're in the countryside and you can admire the beautiful views of Camelback as you walk around the grounds and hear birds chirping. It's so relaxing. Parking is easy and you can usually find a spot right outside your casita room as the parking circles the hotel. Toiletries in the room smell so good! Lavender with sea salt. It's really like staying in a spa! One of my favorite experiences at this hotel was taking a late afternoon outdoor class at the spa/gym on the large lawn where we did stretching/light resistance training with the the sunset behind Camelback Mountain as the backdrop. It was glorious. I definitely recommend trying one of the classes or "experiences" if you stay here. Some of them you have to pay extra for, but a few of them are included with your room rate. At first glance the hotel interiors and architecture seem extremely simple and minimal, but then you realize it's actually all a piece of mid-century modern inspired art. It's really fun to walk around and admire all the understated design details at this hotel.

Here for our son's birthday, brought 2 of his friends and needed to pay $50.00 for an additional wristband as each reservation allows for 4. 2. Poolside chairs, mostly reserved for an additional charge. We inquired for 2 chairs as it's 2:00pm and service closes at 5:00pm. $175.00/chair with an additional $30.00/chair reservation fee's. We opted not to do this and am hoping to find available 'free' chairs provided with the resort fee. 3. Ice cream is another issue, 3 cups of Dippy Dots (picture attached) was $38.00, not including tip. It's a nice hotel but the cost to be at the hotel once you arrive is crazy... consider this before booking, I haven't ordered the prerequisite chicken fingers yet that come with every hotel stay.

We checked in with our pass and found some seats near the hot tub. The kids went straight to the slides and I went to hot tub. It was nice but kind of small especially when the sun started to set it got really busy. The food and drinks are outrageously priced as you might expect at a resort. The food was surprisingly good though! I got a taco salad, my son got hot dog and fries and his friend got a turkey wrap. It was good but was too expensive. But hey when in Rome! The lazy river is the best. I could floated in that all day! All in all in was an expensive but enjoyable day at the JW.

I told her it was wrong and she said it wasn't that the first time she had only charged me for 2 beers and this was my third beer. I did not want to argue so I left it at that but I couldn't sleep thinking about it. I mean dang I even tipped her good. The next day I reached out. To management I don't mind taking care of my servers and I'm always a good tipper. But I don't like being taken advantage of because they think I had a few drinks. Or they think I won't notice extra things. This is not okay. The hotel you check into is supposed to be a safe place like home to enjoy a drink or two. The management offered to refund the first bill of 52.18. But I told him I just wanted what I was over charged refunded plus my tips. At this point I feel she had the chance to correct my bill and make things right but she chose to make me feel like I was in the wrong. After the manager added my first bill up after I told him what I had ordered it turns out she charged 4 beers the first time and not just my 3 and way over charged me the second time. This is a great place to stay but keep an eye on what you order. More so late at night. Also my hot wings were cold in the center but I didn't even mention it to her at the time.
