Very poor room condition; main lamp was extremely dim, and bedside lamps had no bulbs at all. The door into the adjoining room was broken and being held against the wall by a piece of furniture. Exterior doors to the property did not latch, so anyone from the public could walk into the motel hallways. Definitely the most sketch motel I have stayed in many years. I have always had a good experience with Expedia on making reservations, but Did not appreciate Expedia’s pricing algorithm; it sold me a nonrefundable high price as the “last one available, then AFTER booking Expedia came back with a much lower price for the exact same room. Just a bad Expedia experience all around.

It is a dated hotel. And it is north of Tucson in the town of Catalina, AZ. So if you want to be closer to downtown Tucson, this may not be the place to stay. That being said, the staff and GM made the stay comfortable and resolved any issues. They really cared to make the stay nice. Plus, Catalina State Park is a few miles away along with horseback riding ranches and Oro Valley Marketplace. So it is a good place to stay if those are your intentions.

I stayed at this hotel for five nights. I placed the “Please clean the room” sign on my door twice, but no one came to service the room. I informed the front desk, and housekeeping did come to change the towels, but the bed was not made and the room was not properly cleaned. Overall, it was disappointing.

This hotel was horrific, damaged doors, one room I looked at it smelled nasty, another room I tried the door was not LOCKING!!! I felt very unsafe,!!!!! The last room, I tried the bathroom had mold in the corner & I have to cover it with a towel!!! By then I was very exhausted and decided to stay for at least one night due to it being 10 o’clock at night !!!! I do not recommend this place. It’s just awful and unsafe.

1. We were given a room that we could not get the door open. We were told by staff to just hit it really hard. It did not work. 2. We were given another room that the door also stuck but we finally did get it open. However, this room had no towels so we dealt with that. 3. The staff felt bad so they moved us to a bigger room on the first floor (there is no elevator) this room had no towel bars at all. 4. After staying one night in that room I found that the mattress had a huge dark brown stain completely across the mattress and half way down. I then pulled the sheet and mattress pad completely down and found about a eight old blood stain. I am a nurse so I know what a blood stain looks like, we checked out at 2am. elevators)

This is not a clean place to stay. The doors for the rooms are broken, only one of the lights in the whole room worked. The tile floor in the bathroom was cracked and nasty. I will never stay here again!
