    All good.

    We loved this place! Close to downtown so easy to get to restaurants nearby, yet just enough out of the center to be quiet. The room was comfortable and grounds were great for spending time outside and relaxing.

    was happy with everything.

    The accomodation experience is superbly well looked after. We got clear instructions all along and when there were issues we had instant responses from a nice man named Daniel on whatsapp who went out of his way to solve problems.

    The only thing I didn't care for was the QR codes for everything. Learn how to use the TV - here's a QR code. Hook up to WIFI? - QR Code. A note would have been sufficient because I really hate QR codes. The overwhelming smell of Fabuloso - I'm overly sensitive to cleaners etc. though. I also was not entirely sure about what to do for check out.

    The El Amador is a nice little hidden gem near downtown. Everything was very clean and the communication was great! The courtyard is nice and clean with spots to just hang out and relax. I would not hesitate to send friends or family here to stay. Everything looks like it was fairly recently built and appears pretty solid. The rooms have adequate space and there aren't a ton of knick-knacks taking up space to that was nice. The linens were all clean and tidy - The soap was free of perfumes and dyes so that was also very nice since I'm allergic to most things.

    Neither of the bedside table lamps worked, only one set of towels for a five day stay, and the WiFi was not very good.

    Great location, cozy cottage, nice courtyard, good parking, reasonably priced

    Its not a hotel, so there's no place to leave your luggage before the afternoon checkin. There was no safe in the room. The operators offered to install one, however it never happened during my stay. There was no daily servicing. (or if you required it then there was an extra charge)

    Location was very close to main tram line. Each room is a self contained unit opening up to the shared landscaped area.

    We never had house keeping so ran out of coffee pods, coffee wasn't very good.

    Quiet, comfortable bed, good lighting, easy walking distance to center of downtown, beautiful courtyard area, easy check-in, great shower, excellent communication.

    There was no comfortable place to sit in the room, other than the bed. The bed was very tall and could have benefited from a stool on one side. It was challenging to get on and off the bed for someone short.

    Love the historic charm and character of the inn; comfortable bed, roomy bathroom and wonderful outdoor spaces. It was convenient to downtown.

    Would have liked a bigger bathroom. Pedestal sink in bedroom was a bit inconvenient and separate room for toilet and shower are small. A king size bed would also be better. The space was big enough for one.

    The Downtown Suite is an apartment with full size kitchen, dining room, living room and bedroom with attached bath. Very spacious with lots of antiques. Excellent location for the Tucson Jazz Festival events.

    No complaints.

    LOVED the property layout. Our room was a large bedroom with attached bathroom. Beautifully decorated and maintained at a high standard. Common area had at least two firepits, lots of seating available and beautifully decorated. There was a grill available as well. Private parking area, well-lit and secure. Wifi available on premises. Very close to downtown, walking distance to Rialto Theatre.

    Best place to stay in Tucson, hands down.

    The only issue, and it was a minor one, was there was no heating in the bathroom. It would have have been nice to have some way to heat the bathroom other than leaving the bathroom door open. But this did not detract from the five out of five rating.

    Everything about El Amador was excellent-location, price, cleanliness, security, extras, the decor, the fire pit, etc. The inn is within four minutes of walking along the famous Congress Street shopping/dining area. The attentiveness of the staff was wonderful. The TV went out on Friday night at 920pm during a movie. The call to the front desk was immediately picked up and within 3 minutes a staff member showed up to the room, did some trouble shooting and had the TV back to normal by 930pm. I highly recommend this inn to anyone and I will always use El Amador when I am in Tucson.
