Location was great, really easy to find, with restaurants and supermarket a five minute drive away. Plenty of parking spaces. We had booked the 2 bedroom king suite, and the description made it seem like there was only one bathroom. we were really surprised and very pleased to find each bedroom had an en-suite. Rooms were very generous in proportion. All the staff we had interaction with were really friendly and helpful. Overall, perfect for what we required.

We requested to have our room serviced and got back from a long day out to find it hadn't been done. Had to go to reception for fresh towels, and was advised the house keeping team ran out of time and it be done the following day. Which it was.

I wasn't expecting too much. I am not into the sports theme and my Tucson hotel experience hasn't been the best. Luckily, I was very pleasantly surprised. Amanda and Dan (asst general manager and general manager) as well as all of the property staff were super friendly and helpful. The employees all seemed genuinely happy to work there. The rooms were the cleanest of any hotel or resort in Tucson. I am very picky, bring my own cleaning supplies, and didn't even need to clean things like the bathtub or door handles like usual. The very first thing I was impressed with was the cleanliness. The room itself was very large (560 sq ft). My room had a kitchenette, dining and living room area in addition to the bedroom and bathroom. Included were all needed supplies, as well as free laundry. It was quiet, good mountain views, and plenty of bath towels, dish towels, dish soap, bed pillows, etc. Included a full sized small refrigerator with freezer, burners, dishwasher, etc. The hotel itself has 3 floors, a swimming pool and hot tub area, outdoor grill area, a tiny mini golf course, plus plenty of indoor games on the tables like checkers, chess, backgammon, pool as well as shuffle board, and foosball, ping pong and other games in the game room. This would be a great hotel for a group event or party with all the fun game areas where you can sit and relax. Rooms didn't have indoor mold like so many in Tucson. The hotel was decorated with two Christmas trees and added little touches like pinwheel pillows on the lounge furniture. Very thoughtful and fun décor. They also had a small gift shop with food items. While the hotel doesn't have a breakfast option, they just added a coffee bar with coffee, tea, hot chocolate and apple cider. Marshmallows, cinnamon sticks, caramel, etc. were there for the choosing. Today as I checked out, they had freshly made chocolate chip cookies! I really like how the new GM Dan is added these extra touches.

The room was massive, as if you were renting a whole flat. That's probably the best thing that made me decide to stay here and that totally met my expectations. You've got plenty of cooking utensils there and room to put everything. The bed was super big and extremely comfy. The swimming pool and jacuzzi were really nice. The hotel has a laundry room (free of charge) and they provide one sachet of detergent powder for free. There were also two dishwasher tablets available. The common areas are quite big and comfy, and there is free coffee in the mornings. The hotel is steps away from the airport-shuttle bus stop and close to car rentals, supermarkets and restaurants. I would definitely stay here again.

Two things that could be improved: - The room I got faced onto the street, which could be a bit noisy during the weekends. I opted for sleeping with earplugs as the AC equipment was also quite noisy (had to turn off the one inside the room). - There was a weird smell in the room when I arrived. I guess it was from the people who stayed before who must have used the toaster and burned something inside. I would suggest having at least some air deodorizer available in the rooms.

Courtyard rooms are quiet. The ADA room has a lower edge to the tub which allows easier access and the higher toilet seat is much better for the elderly and disabled.

Beds are to soft as is the pillows. The air conditioner blows right over the bed and you can’t redirect the air flow. When it came time for us to move to this room it was like the left hand didn’t know what the right hand was doing and no notes on the matter in the computer system even though we had reminded them numerous times.

My suite was 225 - if you are lucky you might be assigned this. Nice and functional suite layout and big balcony facing away from the road. Nice mountain views from the balcony. Liked making my own in room breakfast and able to reheat leftovers or make frozen dinners in the microwave - saved a few dollars and time here. Complimentary washer/dryer was a few steps away - and a fully equipped gym area as well. The hot tub was popular. Everything was clean and UpToDate. Amanda at the front desk was exceptional - always ready to help and following through to ensure everything was good. Within 5 minutes there are: an ATM, McDonalds, CVS pharmacy and a Discount Tire (where i had my 10 yr old tires with dry rot cracks replaced in an hour). Tucson Botanical garden and the City's public golf courses (with a great range and practice facilities) were less than a 10 minute drive.

Somewhat loud music in the pool area from 9 to evening. Would have like to turn AC off and open the patio door for fresh air, but the music was distracting. Also morning coffee in reception is only available after 7:30 - not good for early risers with early tee-times - but McD was across the street and the suites have coffee makers with all the supplies.

I have both business and family in Tucson and have stayed here several times before. It's central and close to many restaurants and activities. I like the nearby restaurants Feast (short walk) and Tito & Pep (short drive). There's also a lot of places with good vegan options in the area, like Del Cielo Tamal and Falora Pizza. The rooms are a little dated but exceptionally clean which is most important to me, and it's great to have a full kitchen. The bathrooms are always very clean and have plenty of counter space for getting ready. There's also plenty of free parking which is great. It's just about a 15 minute drive to either downtown or La Encantada in the foothills. Easy to get to most everything by car.

They add a 'resort fee' to your total before you reserve your room and it seems higher to me than other places I've stayed in town. You'll want to check the total price before committing. Regardless, I think it's still a good value for the money (even with the resort fee) for such a central location.

My room

I found the woman at the front desk to be a little short in her communicating style. What bothered me the most was the resort fee. It is duplicitous to not include it in the advertised room rate. I have never seen a hotel charge separately for wifi, which I barely used. I also didn't choose the hotel for the resort features, yet I had to pay for them.

Location not too far from university. Had a decent pool area secluded from the boulevard so relaxing. Game tables in game room & lobby for recreation. Room suites were comfortable & set up well.

Did have a fireplace in Lobby area which is a nice touch but was never on and no cozy decorations nor furniture around it.

We have stayed at Varsity Clubs of America a few times. I chose them as we can always trust that there will be a clean, comfortable suite for a very reasonable price. We stayed for 1 night only for a Drs appt the next morning as we live 75 miles out of town. The staff was great, the room was super clean, there's a small store that offers drinks, candy, popcorn, toiletries, etc. My only disappointment was the pool area that didn't have many umbrellas & the pool was quite cool for being June 1st in Tucson. It's a very peaceful, hidden gem in the center of the city!

This facility is part of Diamond Resorts and therefore they charge a daily resort fee. For what, I couldn't tell you. They don't offer room service, housekeeping, a bar or restaurant. There's nothing resort like about it, only that Diamond Resorts owns the property.

The room was very nice, great kitchen and included amenities. The staff were very nice and quick to help.

Location is a bit iffy, lots of panhandlers and similar. The intersection also has a lot of speeders so it made walking anywhere a bit unnerving.
