When planning any vacation, you're usually looking for convenience and variety. One particular low-cost hotel in the Phoenix area will give that to you. The Best Western Grace Inn is in a perfect location to enjoy all of the fun that Phoenix has to offer at a price that's comfortable.

The Grace Inn is located right of the I-10 and Elliot Road in south Phoenix. The I-10 is your all-access pass to the Valley of the Sun. Basically, nothing in the metropolitan area is more than 30 minutes away from this location, usually by way of this freeway. Grace Inn is technically located in the tiny suburb of Ahwatukee (say that five times fast) which is a family oriented and quiet community pockmarked with golf courses and charming cafes.

Convenience is the key to the location of the Grace Inn. With two right turns, you can be on the I-10 just 5 minutes from Arizona Mills Mall, 12 minutes from downtown Phoenix, and about 9 minutes from Sky Harbor Airport. No matter what your plans are during your vacation to Phoenix, you couldn't be closer to everything at any other hotel. Even within walking distance of the hotel, you'll find Cafe Boa, a moderately upscale but casual bistro, several banks, a gas station, and a grocery store.

Inside the Grace Inn, you'll be welcomed by their inviting atmosphere. Decorated as if you've just stumbled on a desert oasis, Grace Inn is beautiful. The amenities inclue complimentary high-speed internet, complimentary shuttle service to and from the airport and around the area, use of the 24-hour Gold's Gym right across the street, and a USA today delivered each morning to your door. The Grace also has an amazing pool area with a large courtyard lined with palm trees. On-site, they have BG's Lounge for cocktails, karaoke, and pool tables, Matthew's Restaurant for a fantastic meal, and the Sundance Spa and Salon to pamper you.

The best part is the price. Starting at just under $100 per night, this hotel is a steal. In addition to the standard booking, they also have golf packages available at an average of $160 per night and family packages which include pizza and an in-room movie starting at $101! Also ask about their length of stay discounts-save up to 30% if you stay more than four nights. For the quality and location, this deal can't be beat.
