Everything is 4 or more blocks away other than a convenience store and public bus from the hotel. Coffee, cocktails, smaller and larger restaurants are blocks away. Pheonix's blocks are not normal city blocks, they are larger. I started to use electric scooters which were all over the city - while super fun and convenient, they are a little spendy. If I had a kid(s) with me, I would not stay here for ease and sanity, though there is a basic park very nearby.
