Apart from its location, this place is great. Honestly, idk what all the negative reviews are about. The owners are so nice, they make sure you have everything you need and this place is CLEAN. No roaches or bed bugs, no half made beds; everything is nice and tidy. And let me tell you, the mattresses here OMG are so amazing. Brand new memory foam that I have a hard time getting out of in the am. There's a soaker tub in some rooms thats to die for too! Rates are great and comparable to many in the area. The area however has a bad reputation which is unfortunate because this place is anything but. A little slice of quiet, low traffic paradise amidst a sea of old & outdated tucson.
