Perfect Location for Gammage Shows
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pool and pool area were quiet, clean, and relaxing. The location is right across the street from Gammage, so we were able to walk over to our show.

I was disappointed in the appearance of the hotel. The interior was dated and overall a cheap looking. The reception desk was quiet and staff was friendly.

Would not stay again
Hotel is ok for passing thorugh although there are better options at lower prices, the graduate is outdated and not because of the theme but the establishment needs maintanance, the staff was indifferent but polite, would not stay again.

George, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cute place to stay
We chose Graduate because of its proximity to our venue. The bathroom was a bit small, and not fully stocked for our stay, but other than that we were pleasantly surprised. The room was cute and comfortable. The front desk staff was friendly and did their best to be helpful.
Cynthia, 1-night trip

A parking fee?!?!
Room was clean but nothing that stood out. Out dated look and furniture layout. Bathroom needed the most updating with it feeling the least clean. What was the most disappointing part of the stay was that after paying a good amount for the room they charge an additional $15 to park in the parking every 24 hours. At least let me park for free if I’m going to be charged hundreds of dollars per night to stay there. However was conveniently located very close the ASU Gammage.

Okay hotel
Hotel is okay. Great location by campus. Older hotel that has been updated but needs a new update. Not a lot of food or car options nearby. Restaurant inside has limited options.

Loud noise in plumbing
The stay was a good one overall. The problem we experienced was to do with the plumbing (I believe). When hot water was turned on in the shower, a VERY LOUD, knocking/large farm equipment turning on in our room. We experienced this noise twice. Once when we used the shower in the afternoon. Then again at 6:00am when someone else must have turned on the water in a room above us and the noise was so loud and woke the whole family. Thank goodness we had experienced it already so we remembered the sound (eventually, after the shock of being woken in such a loud/scary manner) and knew what it was. I hope this feedback is helpful and you are able to resolve the problem for continued success of your hotel!
