The hotel was nice and it looked clean but I saw a huge cockroach and the staff wasn’t helpful at all. The people staying looked sketchy too and I was afraid for my car parked outside.

Everything about this place was nothing like it was on the website. I also got an email that I’d have to do a $50 security deposit, but when I went to check in, they said it was $100. Just inconvenient. All in all it was a good stay.

The front desk staff was incredibly nice. They were very welcoming. However, the room was disgustingly dirty. I spilled a little bit of water of the floor and when I wiped it up the paper towel was black. You could visibly see the floors haven’t been mopped in a verrrryyyy long time. The bed sheets, blankets, and pillow cases had stains everywhere to the point I had to go buy my own so I could sleep on clean sheets. Coming back to the hotel I also heard gunshots that were so loud that they had to be less than a block away. ( I totally understand that crime in the area is not something the hotel can control) but just throwing that out there so you can think of the area you want to stay in

We had a very nice stay! The place was cute and cozy, with the host providing thorough instructions and all the necessary codes for parking and entry. It was clean, quiet, and we felt safe, even though the neighborhood initially seemed a bit intimidating. Overall, a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again!

I liked that I could park directly in front of my room without having to carry my luggage down endless corridors. I would have liked a coffee machine in the room since the breakfast room was quite a ways away. The Motel was central and sightseeing, my main reason to visit Tucson, was easily accomplished. I would stay here again.
