Hyatt Place Tucson Central

The Location is bad nothing around it. away from everything.The rooms are old .Nothing like Hayatt
No body smiles . the front desk guy I didn't understand a word he said , he speaks 100 word per minute .

Waffles were cold

The hotel sits in a noisy area, next to I-10. It's an old and run down hotel, with a laud A/C in the guest room. Even hair was found in one of the beds.

I booked this mainly on price. For a recognized brand hotel with breakfast included, the price was good and the location seemed fine. We stayed here 3 nights.

Pros:
* Breakfast (6 a.m. weekdays and 7 a.m. weekends) was pretty good, in terms of quality and variety.
* The hotel is centrally located - less than 10 minutes to U of Arizona campus or downtown.
* Within a block of I-10 (but no noise issues).
* There is a gas station adjacent to the hotel for easy fill-ups, if needed.

Cons:
* Accessing the hotel's driveway was awkward. You pass under I-10, switch lanes, pass a traffic light, and then have to get into a short semi-lane to wait for a gap to turn across traffic to get in. Not horrible, but it was always a final, mild challenge when returning.
* The area around the hotel was a bit sketchy. They don't seem to have an issue with their parking lot, but some of the people hanging around the gas station next door seemed like you'd be better off avoiding them.

The room was adequate for 3 people, but the sofa bed was not the greatest.

If you are not getting breakfast at the hotel (for whatever reason), there is a Waffle House across the street and an IHOP about a block away. There also was some sort of Crab Shack restaurant next store. Those appeared to be the only restaurants within walking distance and we did not visit any of them.

If I returned to Tucson, I'd consider staying here again, but might also shop around to compare other places.

Rooms were ok. Definitely needs a remodel and update. I was barely greeted by the staff and I don’t think they really listened to my responses to the questions they asked me. Not what I normally get with a Hyatt branded property unfortunately.

Easy check in

The breakfast setup is great with a great variety of choices. This was the best contintental breakfast for our trip. The room was great and the bed was very comfortable.

Nothing

Staff was friendly , breakfast was good. Only issue was the mattress .
Seemed pretty used up and uncomfortable. Hope they upgrade

Staff was good room was nice

Very pleasantly surprised. Hadn't been to Tuscon and made the reservation at the last minute -- without much knowledge of the area. when I first approached the area, it looked a bit "aged" with a lot of road construction going on (older section of Grant ave -- a bit rundown). So I was a bit worried -- fortunately, unnecessarily. It's a super location to access the main tourist attractions like the Desert Museum. Very modern. And the staff was just excellent. The breakfast was definitely better than average.

Great location, clean hotel, friendly staff, not loud at all. Yes it is an older hotel but it does not have the musty scent that comes along with older hotels. We never felt unsafe in the hotel, parking lot or exterior of the hotel. They do a great job of keeping things clean.

The hotel is so close to I-10, that you hear road noise constantly. Being in that part of Tucson, you also hear sirens A LOT. Homeless everywhere. There’s a total dump of a motel next door. The room had numerous issues both housekeeping and maintenance. Overall we were not pleased with the value. Hyatt should be better than this. Told front desk that the main TV didn’t work. He said there was nobody there to take care of it, but he’d let maintenance know. No offer to give us a different room.
