This is a very unique property perfect for parents and families visiting their students at U of A or doing campus visits. We were able to walk from our room right into the campus a block away. There were also a lot of shopping and food options right around the corner. The rooftop pool is pretty common in Tucson but was a nice feature. Front desk and restaurant/bar staff were friendly and helpful.
