text: I have been back a couple of times within the past year for long weekends so it is time for an update I am taking it down a star just because it seems like the resort has aged nnThe staff is good and consistent The rooms have remained the same and seem to need a face lift The restaurant wellit needs a pick me up Il Terrazo seemed to be missing something the menu seemed rather plain and simple but for the price should have been more nnThe pool area is the best as always The Mother of Pearl pool wins me over every time There is nothing better than swimming and looking up at Camelback nnThe Phoenician still has a special place in my heart but maybe it is to try some of the other awesome resorts that Scottsdale has to offer
