The amount being charged for this booking and the fact it was 'non-refundable' should have been more then ample warning of what was absolutely a terrible 'partial one-night stay'. The check-in person at the desk and the A/C in the room were the only positive things about this experience. I checked in after 3 PM, then went to grab great mexican food at one of my favorite places in all of AZ. Upon return, I entered the room to find the room condition and amenities as 'absolutely deplorable' (I have photos to forward to reinforce that). I tried to go to sleep at 9:30 PM but ended up leaving the property at 3 AM.
I would try to ask for a refund of the One Key cash spent for this stay but I know that won't happen. What should happen (and may still happen) is AAA Arizona, AZ and Tucson Better Business Bureau, Tucson Chamber of Commerce, AZ and Pima County Dept of Health being contacted about the condition of the property. Next, a Hospltality or Investment Group should take over the property to do a complete renovation of it, or bulldoze it down to the slab and start over. The location at the SW corner of Grant and I-10 frontage road is prime, but the property is a disaster. The multi-star (4.6 out of 5) rating they posted and the submitted photos to list w Expedia/Hotels.com are as false as can be (original photos when property opened?)

Half of the building is condemned… it’s a miracle that this property is on Expedia. When we pulled up it was the sketchiest dirtiest looking building we’ve seen by far. We cancelled are booking instantly.
If you want a good experience stay at the motel 6 next to the airport.

It was very quiet and excellent accomodations in the room. It had a microwave and mini fridge I was very impressed with the size of the room as well. It was worth exactly what I paid. Front desk was super polite as well.

The check in and out went fine. The property was dirty. The room had cockroaches and black mold. The one comforter had burn holes. A pillow didn't have a case and had stains of who knoes what. The room had an awful smell. The outside trash cans were overflowing.

Everything was falling apart, from the door I had to slam to keep shut to the light fixtures and electrical outlets falling off and out of the walls. The room was missing towels, a wastebasket, soap, and other things, although the staff was very friendly and quick to supply the items. There was also a cockroach, although only one. They said they've renovated other rooms and that they have some problems specifically with the outward-facing rooms, but I can only comment on what I experienced.

Would not recommend. Very run down. Many of the rooms have condemning notices on the doors. Non smoking rooms have very strong smoke odor. Room was dirty. Cockroaches in the bathroom. Cigarette burns on the bedding. Smoke detector had been removed from the room. Damaged drapes that do not fully cover windows. Front desk staff very rude.

The owner was very accommodating & woke up & checked my brother in at 3 am , they don’t have phones in room the area is unsafe but they allowed dogs . I booked for brother who is a disabled veteran whose house was vandalized & robbed repeatedly & police sauce it was unsafe for him to be there as he’d been beat up by homeless addicts who stay at shelter behind his home. I am grateful that they accosted him & properly cr was very reasonable

The place looked like a homeless encampment. Every single piece of furniture was torn and dirty. Carpet had more stains than clean carpet. Roaches. Smelled like drugs, mold, cigarettes and cheap alcohol combined. And don’t forget people literally tweaking outside your door. Stayed for 5 minutes and walked out. Never again.

We got to the hotel and went to the front desk, It stunk, people are drinking at the desk. Walking around it looks like drugville or worse. The people made us feel very uncomfortable. We went into the room. We had to use the phone flashlights to see. The lights did not work in there. No toilet paper, no towels. The room stunk.the beds were bad and collapsing. The beds had cigarette burns in them. We left and didn't care about our refund. They also refused it.

I called Expedia and told them I would not stay at the hotel because it was so awful and dirty. The door did not have a proper lock on it and no dead-bolt lock in a very dangerous neighborhood. The property was supposed to have a pool, but the pool was drained. Holes were in the bathroom door. I had a friend living in Tucson so I called her up and she was willing to let me stay with her while I attended a meeting but I want my money back on this hotel. I never stayed in the room. The television didn't work either. It was awful
