Wingate by Wyndham Oro Valley

Had what we needed, basically what you need in a hotel. Microwave, refrigerator, keurig, shower staples, continental breakfast, pool, hot tub, etc. The only thing it’s missing is a safe but that didn’t make that big of a difference in our stay. Chili’s restaurant 250’ away, gas station with a convenience store that is really nice, 300’ away. Right off a main road that is conveniently located. There is a really nice trial extension right behind the hotel, take it a few miles whether you’re a runner, cyclist or walker to get you to the actual loop that goes through Tucson.

I can’t believe I haven’t stayed here before for staycation purposes when we need to (or want to) stay in a hotel. Not only is the location convenient to Oro Valley / North Tucson, but the experience was really great. The room was spacious and clean, check in and check out were fast, smooth, and pleasant (excellent front desk staff, I liked that), the view was even really good (of the mountains). The bed was comfortable, bathroom had almost everything you need (in my particular case, no soap by the sink, though), plenty of room for clothes and luggage, and I could even use my Roku stick (SO many high end hotels work incredibly hard to PREVENT you from using your own streaming device). Great value for the price. Will definitely return.

Holiday Inn is my go to hotel. I've enjoyed multiple levels of status with the group all the way up to Diamond. I went to check in there and the person at the front desk was totally rude. He seemed to have an attitude that since I was using points for my stay that I was not worthy of his time. Its a shame because I've tried to book space there many times and it is so often full. I had to go down to Tucson Mall HE and was treated like royalty by them. They were so helpful. Well, from now on I'll just add a little driving to my stay!
