The historic Hotel was great and the people working were very nice.
Pros:

I liked that it was a relaxed environment and still able to laugh and be ourselves past 10pm. It is not a place to go if you want noise control. It was fantastic!!! Exactly what we wanted.

Cons:

Put Bubble Bath in the bathrooms, but everything was great!

Great spot in a great location.
Pros:

It was definitely noisy, so beware if you don’t sleep well. We had one of the noisier rooms, we could see the stage from our window. Loud music played until 1am. Definitely had all the features of a historical hotel. The room was great, king sized bed fit adequately. We had breakfast in the hotel restaurant and the food was great. The locksmith’s apprentice must have been on a holiday because we didn’t witness anything abnormal.

Cons:

Beware if you don’t like noise, it didn’t bother me though. I’m tall, so the show fixtures were short, but thats to be expected in a historic hotel.

You haven’t experienced Tucson unless you have stayed at Hotel Congress. The staff was warm, welcoming and helpful. Th
Pros:

This hotel reeks of history. It has an energy you can’t name, but it doesn’t exist somewhere else.

Cons:

Music was loud and doesn’t stop until 2 am but is also part of the charm.

Clean, comfortable stay for 1 night in the middle of a very lively/party area
Pros:

The location was great, love they have restaurant and bar on site. They do provide live music/DJ in a popular location making it a very lively, loud and busy area. Especially on a Saturday night.

Cons:

This room is a very basic room, no tv, coffee maker, fridge or microwave just be warned, also could only find one working plug.

Don’t do it.
Pros:

It’s on a pretty fun street. Restaurants and little shops. Central.

Cons:

They don’t have an elevator. I had many bags to carry up two flights of stairs. They tell you when you arrive and make you sign something that says you understand it will be noisy. They don’t tell you it will be like your bed is on the dance floor in the middle of a club from 5pm until 2am. The walls floor lamps bed frame were literally rattling and shaking from the music and then they will make you pay to get in to get into the where the music is playing.
