Ramada by Wyndham Viscount Suites Tucson East
The couch in the suite was nasty and so was most of furniture in suite. Invest in some new stuff and better housekeeping . Will never stay there again!

Staff wasn’t the most friendly. And this is the only hotel I’ve ever stayed that offers shampoo but no conditioner.
