Great value for money, clean room!
The room was clean and renovated. Bed was firm and comfortable, with three pillows on each bed. Huge TV, ice machine on site, minimal but sufficient breakfast available in the mornings, parking was convenient. Very close to downtown area. Great value for the money! Nothing fancy but highly recommend this place for practical stays.

Nice Inn
It is a low key-style small Inn, but scores high in cleanliness, comfort, and very economical in fees. Close to downtown. Offered small breakfast bar and coffee. Friendly staff.

Very friendly front desk. Room was decent, clean and bed was super comfortable and loved the pillows. Breakfast was just so so with very limited options but not a big deal to us though.

A central location from which to operate.
The room fit my needs. I'm not a demanding traveler. Check in/check out were both fast and hassle-free. Desk staff was efficient. Housekeeping refreshed the room in a timely manner. I've stayed at the University Inn before. Each time has been pleasant. When future travel to Tucson calls, I hope this motel can provide me lodging.

Tucson Visit
We have stayed several times at University Inn when visiting Tucson. It is close to the freeway, restaurants, and places of interest to visit. Comfortable remodeled room for a reasonable price. We will stay again.

Local hired artist add some style.
Great little place. The tag art deco on the walls in the room was a great touch and the story behind it was even better.

We were in town for Mom’s Weekend at UofA & very pleased with our accommodations! From the courtesy call on the day of check in to the retro-modern decor and MCM charm, the Inn was a pleasant experience.

Not in a safe place..scary
Very scary neighborhood, if I was with my wife instead of a business trip I never would have stayed there.
The exterior could probably use an upgrade but the rooms were great

Bottle of water would have been nice.
I enjoyed my stay but would have really appreciated a bottle of water in my room or in the vending machine for purchase.

Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room was clean. Good value. Only issue we had was the noise. I could hear lives unfolding outside the door, and the street racers screeching down the Blvd.

There were no road noises, place was very clean, ample parking.
Snacks were limited but who goes for the food at a hotel to start with.
