The property was well maintained. Staffing was excellent and very helpful. The pool and hot tub were clean and towels are high grade. Breakfast is included and from a menu, better than your typical buffet breakfast. Juice was not included, which was weird. This hotel is exceptional, we would stay again.

We woke up at three in the morning itchy, and when we turn on the lights, we had bedbugs bites all over our body. We checked the bed and we found bedbugs on the bed the manager, avoid us and still charged us for the night. Kept trying to call him to try to refund us because we had a horrible stay but the manager kept avoiding us till this day. Cautious when you go to this hotel, they are known for bedbugs.

This gem of a mini-resort is perfect for vacation or business. Beautiful and clean, with friendly people ready to help make your stay the very best it can be! Don't miss out on Lodge on the Desert - the pictures don't even come close to doing it justice.

We had a beautiful spacious casita number 241. In room coffee is terrible. Restaurant coffee not much better. Our second stay there . We usually bring our own setup for coffee making everywhere we go anyway. We like this place a lot. The pool though is rather small and often shady. The hounds are beautifully planted . Its sort of like a small village with paths to the casitas and apartments.

Love this place. Comfortable, clean and cute. Staff very friendly and helpful. Restaurant is great. Good location near downtown and golf. This is my stop every time I go through Tuscon. Reasonably priced.

We booked a Deluxe Spa King room specifically for the tub with jets and the tub did not function at all. The tub could not contain water, jets didn't work and it had many scratches on the bottom. The room and property had tond of random small damages and the rooms around us were very loud. Pool was cold. The maintenance people didn't speak English.... it was a disaster except for the front desks staff they were 10 out of 10.
