The renovation still has a few glitches to be solved. The place itself is clean. The issues are maintenance related and minor, but noticeable. The breakfast was tasty and well rounded. Its a great Oasis for travel stays.

As described by other reviews but not a bad hotel for the price. Area is a little rough and mostly industrial area but it’s gated. Staff was great and very welcoming. People are a little noisy leaving in the morning so you might consider that if you are not getting up early. Overall, pretty good hotel if you are focused on price.

This is a really adorable totally renovated 1970s style motel. My husband and I stayed here 2 nights and were pleasantly surprised how nice this place was. It's got a very big lobby/breakfast bar. They sell snack items as well. The pool is very nice and clean and there are cabanas that are available. The room was clean and I really loved that it only had an area rug on the floor. I really hate rugs in hotels but this was fine. The bed was very comfortable. I was surprised to find out that they straighten up the room on a daily basis. Most hotels don't bother with that unless you're staying for longer than 2 nights. The parking lot is locked which I really did appreciate. Honestly this part of Tucson is kind of deserted at night so the locked parking lot really made us feel safe. We had a really pleasant stay here and we will definitely stay here again when we go back to Tucson.
