Sleepless night
We have been staying in Tucson every two weeks and usually go to The LA Posada or Westward Look. This was a little cheaper and thought we would try it. The beds are comfortable and the room is clean but the neighborhood is terrible and the hotel is noisy. This was a relaxing get away for us but we couldn't enjoy the comfortable bed because you could hear the people upstairs ALL night. The name makes you think it's a Hotel but you can hear the people outside all night because it's actually an expensive motel. The coffee in the lobby was like warm first thing in the morning and while I was reading out loud to my fiance what the menu was at a burger place, "google" from the Marshall speaker repeated what I said. Funny but too much!! There were pubic hairs all over the shower. The water was hot and shampoo and conditioner was great. The decor is cool but we won't stay here again.

Great hotel - terrible water pressure
The hotel was excellent except for one important item. The shower head and water pressure was terrible, I was not able to wash my hair because the water pressure was so low and the shower head did not help. The bed was comfortable, staff was very nice and the food was delicious.

The Tuxon itself is pretty cool. They did good job of converting a motel into something cooler. The location is iffy. I was there for the gem show so for convenience it's perfect for that. You can walk to each exhibit. But if I wasn't there for the show there's no chance I'd stay there because it's next to a highway, and around the property just seems dodgy. Again property itself is nice, just wish you could pick it up and put it somehow else.

This is a great site to visit the Tucson Gem and Mineral show from. Rooms are small but clean and staff is very friendly and helpful. It is rather noisy from the I-10 which is very close. Overall, nice place to stay for the show.

Excellent staff, excellent management, comfortable
I stayed at the Tuxon for an extended business trip and it was comfortable, well designed and the staff was great. I came in a day early and used an app (other then hotels.com) on my phone to secure a deeply discounted rate. I was worried that the use of a deeply discounted app may have swayed them to not treat me the same, but it was just the opposite. The Manager Kristen gave me props for finding such a good deal and then told me she called the apps service and corrected the rate error immediately after my booking! Kristen then worked with me to not only get me into a room that would link up to my pre-existing 9 day booking but was able to connect me to the best suited room for my accessibility and work needs. She was a blast to work with and it's obvious the staff is as friendly as they are because they have great management. I ended up booking even one more night at the end of my trip so I could enjoy the facility for a day after my very busy and hardworking trip. Again, Kristen made sure to accommodate the change (event though the hotel was very full) and matched the rate of my original long term booking. I felt valued and taken care of while here. The facility has been updated to be hip and modern, but the hospitality is old school for sure. I do this trip every year, and Kristen and the Tuxon crew has earned my repeat business.
