We had a team of 21 U15 players and 4 chaperones. Everyone working the front desk was very friendly and accommodating to our team. All the rooms were very clean, fun in the pool at night and the team really enjoyed the outdoor sitting area to bond over the games of the day. Kids had fun playing the arcade games, we had a blast. Will absolutely stay here again when we come back into town.

The remodel of this hotel was really well done. Updated, super cute, clean, comfortable. The location was in a sketchy area though. They did have gated parking so it did feel safe to park your car there.

The place is absolutely charming. This hotel must have been recently renovated and whoever did it, did a great job Outside is 60’s style (pastel colors, light and bright;-) The rooms are very comfortable equipped with a mini kitchenette, big TV and great coffee maker. There’s even a steamer for your clothes. The pool is pretty big and OPEN!!! (A lot of hotels we’ve been to in this area have their pools closed;-( Breakfast is served in a big space by the reception and offers a decent selection of hot and cold treats. I highly recommend ❤️

Had to come to Tucson for an unfortunate reason. This hotel was very close to the VA hospital. I absolutely loved this charming hotel! The pool was amazing. The staff all very helpful and nice. The hotel was very very clean and the AC cold! I would definitely stay here again and recommend it for anyone. I’ll be looking for more of these BW surestay hotels in the future.

Beautiful renovated property. Nice pool. Awesome game room and fitness room. My only complaint was the tv. It was streaming and the internet ****** so it kept freezing. We weren’t able to watch anything.

10 out of 10 Such a cute hotel. All the little details and touches made it feel like you were in Palm Springs or Paris and the beds were really comfy. They even had a cute arcade and really nice pool.
