I don't know where to start! Everything! The Inn was perfection! The rooms were charming. The history of the building and all the work that has gone into maintaining the authenticity, fascinating. We met one of the owners who was lovely and engaging. The staff were knowledgeable, helpful and kind. Breakfast was all homemade and deelish! Three of the rooms were occupied but we couldn't hear a thing from any of them. I can't wait to return. Location was within walking distance of Tucson attractions and restaurants. Highly, highly recommend. (Special commendations to the staff!)

Not a thing!

Everything about the facilities was fantastic. Great hosts/innkeepers, loved the location, rooms were clean, spa heated quickly, and the breakfast was perfect. Would definitely return!

Only a couple drawbacks. The pool was very cold, which was surprising given the ambient temps in Oct were still in the 90s. The spa was great though and heated very qukkcly! The other was not the property's fault, but next door there was an event space where they had some sort of DJ/rave/EDM concert going on from 10pm - 2am and our room was on the same side of the property as the concert. None of us could sleep it was so loud, surprising they were able to get away with an outside concert so late. This was only on one of the three nights we stayed, so think it was just bad timing.

An absolute gem, particularly if you want to step back in time to real B&Bs with real families and innkeepers hosting. The care for guests is very clearly first at the Blenman Inn. We mentioned on our way out the door for dinner that we needed to shop for shoes for our event the next day. When we got back, we had a wonderful handwritten card with store suggestions and addresses inside. Personal touches mean everything! Breakfast is buffet style and homey, great quality and beautifully presented. Tea and coffee are available 24/7, as is the small bar (they ask a mere $5/drink for the latter). The pool and hot tub are well kept and also 24/7. Our bed was comfortable, there was plenty of hot water for showers, and all amenities were cared for and clean. The pride of ownership is evident at every turn. Make time to listen to the home's history. Very interesting!

This wasn't an issue for us, but wanted to give others a heads up: Mornings are quiet so as not to disturb other guests in this old house. If you are a very light sleeper or are a noisy riser, this may not be the most comfortable place for you.

If you're looking for a distinctive base in central Tucson, consider The Blenman House Inn. Only a short walk from nightlife and shopping, this former family dwelling has character and appeal drawn from almost a century and a half of prominence in the city's development. Visually it is a work of art, but perhaps as important to the traveler it offers a peaceful refuge. Rooms lack nothing in facilities despite the building's history, and both the initial reception area and the adjoining garden encourage relaxation.

The breakfast selection was extensive and we enjoyed our yogurt with granola. They also provided snacks throughout the day so we were never hungry! The location was fantastic. We could walk to the concert hall and to all the restaurants and bars downtown. Once we parked, we didn't need our car except to pick up our son.

There is a bar next door that has outside seating. There was noise from there but I brought my ear plugs so it was okay. You could also request a room on the side opposite of the the pool and it probably wouldn't be a problem

Every detail is paid great attention. The staff is accessible and responsive and very nice. The accommodations are beautiful and well maintained. TONS of charm in the place. The continental breakfast was a nice bonus. They are generous with snacks and treats and even have an honor bar with alcohol in the kitchen.

Hard to say anything negative, but I would have liked the pool/jacuzzi to be better filtered. I also wish they would have informed us verbally that they give vouchers for a breakfast out; we didn't realize that until we were leaving and read it in the manual.

The location of the inn, nestled in a historically rich area, added an extra layer of charm to my stay. The facilities were excellent, and having access to the garden was a lovely bonus, providing a peaceful retreat. But what truly stood out was the people - from Mollie's hospitality to the friendly staff, everyone made me feel like part of the family. The heritage of the inn added to its allure, making my stay even more memorable.

Nothing

What immediately makes feel at home, is you host Shae. From the moment you enter this beautiful 19th century mansion, you are taken care of in a sense that is exceptional. When asked what like for breakfast, I said croissants. The next morning fresh croissants were served that would make a frenchman jealous! Location and parking, all is perfect.

If you like large hotel chains then this is not your best choice.

It was in a lovely, quiet area of town. The building was beautiful and comfortable. the staff was attentive but not intrusive. It was a lovely setting to entertain our friends.

the room was dim, plenty of lights but needed higher wattage in the bedside lamps. Too many decorative pillows on the bed, almost couldn't find a place to stash them. Would have liked a bit more substantial breakfast, but the fresh fruits and plain yogurt were a welcome choice.

The house is charming and comfortable, within easy walking distance of downtown and the light rail. The staff and owners truly went above and beyond to give me recommendations, chat about town, even bring me a white noise machine. There is an “honor bar” where you can help yourself to a drink in exchange for leaving cash and a nice selection of snack, coffee, and tea. I truly felt comfortable.
