Intown Suites

Horrible place. Located in one of the worst sections of Phoenix, this extended stay «motel» is run-​down and dirty. Working in Phoenix for five weeks, I checked into my room and promptly purchased a sleeping bag and pillow which I slept in on top of the sheets, after pulling the dirty, cigarette-​burned bedspread off.
The shower head leaked badly, there were silverfish and roaches in the bathroom on a daily basis, and the bathroom door was separating… with the attempted repair being a line of staples running down the side.
Mercifully, I found another place to stay and checked out of this dump after only one week.

I just moved to Phoenix and had the misfortune of having to stay in this place for my first three months here. Thankfully I have moved on. The staff is great. They are mostly polite and will help you with your needs. The property is kept clean and the courtesy officer is nice and helpful. Parking is plentiful and the bus stop is right in front of the property. Everything is close by including a supermarket, BKs, McDonald’s, and Pollo Loco.
Thank being said now I move on to the reason I am only giving this 2 stars: The location. This is NOT in a good neighborhood. I must warn you that if you plan on staying here be prepared to deal with the worse of the worse type of people that Phoenix has to offer. All kinds of riff raff plague the area including but not limited to: homeless people with mental problems, drug addicts, drug dealers, alcoholics, thugs, prostitutes, and the like. I under no circumstances went out at night. NOT a safe place for children and women. While I was there the room next door to mine had a man who was beating up his girlfriend, a drug addict who would let very rough-​looking drug dealers stay with him until they were forced out, and a prostitute who would bring clients over. Ghetto people everywhere. One night a crackhead tried to break into my room and started yelling and cursing at me and the police had to be called. I would often see doo-​rag wearing thugs who were obviously not staying there walking through the corridors at night when the staff has gone home. Shady people loitering in corners and getting into cars driven by even shadier people. Men covered in tattoos who looked like ex-​cons. You have been warned. NOT for the faint of heart.
Also apparently the rooms share a common ventilation system and my room was mired in smoke from whatever the heck the other guests were smoking which I think was in many cases not tobacco (use your imagination). My last day there I had to wash ALL my clothes and used up almost an entire bottle of febreze to get the disgusting smell of smoke out of my clothes. I also noticed burns on the blanket they give you that looked like they came from a crack or meth pipe. Ugh.
Now I’m not saying don’t stay here. If you do stay here don’t come alone if you are a woman. Expect to be harassed by panhandlers. For goodness sakes if you have children don’t go there. Finally don’t stay there for more than a month.

This place sucks a$@ no one should have to be subjected to the harassment of the management and the employee/​token Mexican who is steady trying to win employee of the second by trying to enforce rules that no one abides by! My suggestion is to sleep in your car, under the closest bridge, or the nearest park bench!
