Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The property seems to be undergoing some significant renovation, but it looks like it would be a perfect set for an episode of The Last of Us. The room wasn’t fully set up with all the linens for showering, the electronic doors only functioned intermittently, and the bed sheets had what appeared to be boot prints on them. The shower water pressure and temperature were great however.

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!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel should be condemned. It is simply horrible. I got locked out of my room and the hotel staff came down the hall with a blow torch to "warm up" the electronic lock. It worked after 5 minutes but this entire property could use 20 gallons of gas and a match. HORRIBLE!!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Terrible, the sheets were dirty, the floor was with garbage and dust, and terrible atention by the girl in the lobby, she was very rude and she didn't even apologize or give a solution when we told her that we wanted to leave because the room was dirty. Worst hotel ever Estuvo horrible. Demasiado sucio y pésima atención, no pierdan su dinero y hospedense en otro lugar. mi grupo y yo tuvimos que dejar la habitación y buscar otro hotel porque el lugar estaba espantoso y muy inseguro.

Property is located on a not so well or secure area of Tucson , don’t usually stay on the area , but the $50.00 dlls price is reasonable for the area and the building, don’t think is worth more than that, cleaning ladies they bang your door if you pass 11:00 am but o well you get what’s you pay for , but is quiet, jaja don’t know if I’ll stay 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.
