Potential improvements to rooms

Extra costs can be excessive
A stay at the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort and Spa at Gainey Ranch doesn't exactly come cheap but it's not just the room rates and resort fee you'll need to cover. Guests who dined at one of the hotel's restaurants or had a treatment at the spa often found the associated costs were excessive.
