We simply took the stairs down one level and walked in! It was super convenient. Once we settled in, it was time to check out the casino. (This was just one of the Sports Fanatic Rooms that Gila River Hotels and Casinos has to offer they also have the Phoenix Suns and the Arizona Diamondbacks!) With custom Mercury wallpaper shining in purple and orange, a Mercury players’ height wall, and a signed Taurasi jersey, it was everything this Phoenix Mercury fan could ask for! As a huge Phoenix Mercury fan, the door epically displayed the Mercury logo, inviting us in. As a AAA Four Diamond Awarded Hotel, we had high expectations, and Gila River Hotels and Casinos - Vee Quiva did not disappoint!Īs we approached our room, I immediately felt excitement. Located in Laveen, Arizona, the Native American hotel is a short drive from our home in Phoenix. Gila River Hotels and Casinos - Vee Quiva was a perfect escape during the monsoons.
