Staff was very courteous, it was clean and very quiet. It's only rated at a 2star, but I would give it at least a 3. The only downfall was no hairdryer. A plus is a great restaurant right across the street that has very good, huge burgers and sandwiches. We will be staying again on our route back through Tucson.

The room was clean and beds were comfortable. The staff was friendly. The only mention is that the area seems a little be less than desirable. It is a stones throw away from a public park. With that being said we did not feel unsafe.

We came for family weekend at U of A. This hotel is 1 mile away so it was good for walking to the University, food and bars. Down side is it’s in a rough neighborhood. Staff was very friendly and rooms were clean and comfy beds.

The room was fine. Close to downtown. AC unit in Room 105 was really noisy with weird rattles, and the toilet tank leaked so it filled sporadically through the night. The room was recently renovated, with a large TV and comfortable bed. The price was economical.

Football trip.

It’s very convenient location. Walking distance to the University and downtown but there are plenty of ride share options so you can park and go. Recently remodeled and very functional at a great price. Perfect to go to Games at the Uni or just sightseeing and touring Tucson.
