The only plus was that the beds we’re comfortable. I was also happy that my car wasn’t taken during the night. The floor was so dirty that my socks were black on the bottom. The shower was in very bad shape. It tools 5 minutes to get hot water. There was no cold water flowing from the cold water faucet. I could not recommend staying here.

this is the worst place i have ever stayed in my life. the room was stinking really bad, that i had to open the window but when i wanted to open the window there were homeless people walking at the back and no protection like net or cage or anything so i had to close the window.. paid $161 for this and could not use the bathroom, could not even brush my teeth or shower and i had to sleep with my winter coat on because the bed sheets and pillow cases were stinking some weitd smell and terribly stained. it was 44 degrees outside tried to open the heater and crazy sounds started coming from it and closed it. right on top of the bed they put those room scent automatic air fresheners that puffs every 10 mins but it is empty i assume but still makes the noise and startles you... there is white bench in front of the room on the parking lot and people smokes all kind of things there sitting and chatting loudly and all the smell comes to the room under the door and doubles the disaster... i had to leave at 6 am and sleep in my car for couple hours because i had important meetings.. i will stop booking with expedia also for putting these kind of weird places in their list.. we go with expedia brand we trust you and when i pay 161 dollars to a hotel i assume at least i can sleep well... shame on you expedia. this hotel should be $25 and NOT on your site.

No problems, but nothing special
Perfectly functional, inexpensive no-frills motel, reasonably comfortable for spending the night after a concert downtown. Only objectionable experience was a whiff or two of marijuana smoke passing a certain room and no real breakfast to speak of--only pre-packaged pastries and coffee/tea, which don't count in my book.Plenty of restaurants nearby, however, including a Mexican grill across the parking lot, and the neighborhood felt safe. Parking is somewhat tight, and although we lucked out, we understand the place's small lot fills up completely before it reaches capacity. Quiet enough, but we were in an end room on the third floor (all of five rooms up there).

They offer smoking rooms and as such it was very clean. Only suggestion would be handheld showers in every bathroom. We are both handicapped ,one with amputation and myself with double hip replacement , so hand held shower heads would really work. Great location, and price for what we needed it for.

Kicked out for an honest review.
We booked a two night stay as we were in Tucson as my mother-in-law is in the hospital. We checked in on 04/01/2022. We were exhausted when we first checked in and the room had, cigarette Burns in the comforter and sheets, old food containers in the microwave from the previous occupants I am assuming, hair all over the toilet, and signs of bed bugs on the mattress, Hotels com asked us via email to rate the check-in and that if there were any problems they would forward it to management so we let them know about all these things. The next day we went to the hospital and when we came back to our room later that day we were locked out, I went to the front desk and let them know and the lady their stated of course you are locked out and that they would not let us back into our room unless we deleted the review about the condition of the room, I told them I would not do that and that I still had stuff in the room so they escorted us to the room to get our stuff, while there we showed them the mattress where there was evidence of bed bugs and the old food in the microwave, she stated she did not care. When I asked for refund at least stated if I needed to talk to hotels.com because that is where I booked through and that they could not authorize a refund, so I called them and told them what happened and they said they needed to check with the hotel staff which they did and they stated they would not authorize a refund. So I got scammed and hotels.com has not done anything about it.

Few small issues, but was ok.
Staff was very friendly! The bed was hard! The toilet definitely could have been much cleaner. Hot water in the shower had a small stream flowing when you used it. Extremely hot when you turned it off. Other then that it was alright! Need cash deposit for incidentals. Got it back when i checked out.

Room 221 had dripping shower that was very loud. I called down to get it fixed but after 20 mins I needed to leave to meet my son. It was never fixed. Door was either miss fit or missing weather striping. The lack of a sealed door made it sound like people outside were in the room.
