The hotel was very cute and the rooms were big. The only negatives were that the bar/restaurant closed earlier than advertised both nights that I stayed there and I stayed on the first floor and heard the people above me walking around and making some noise in bed... so the walls/floors are very thin.

Liked: Staff & service
The Clifton is in a great location, and the folks running it seem like really good people. There was an awesome pop-up event happening when we checked in, and just an overall positive vibe. I can see what they are going for with their aesthetic- it just needs to be a little more clean and polished. The decor is sparse, the paint is a bit shabby, and it really only has basic amenities. A comfortable chair or loveseat would have been nice, along with some more art. It just looks like they are still getting things up and running. That said, I'd rather support a local independent business than any chain, and they are heading in the right direction!

Great location, spacious & clean

Loved this place! We stayed here while riding in El Tour de Tucson. So close to the start/finish at the Conv Ctr and downtown restaurants. Cool lounge and courtyard, live music Sat night. Easy check in, showed us where our room was. Super clean, large room. Able to request a roller bed for our son to stay the 1st night since he was starting ride at 7 am. Bathroom was bright, all amenities needed (shampoo, cond, body wash, lotion, make up wipe). Room had fridge, microwave. Loved the retro/old school vibe. We will stay here again.

Cool place to stay.

We were in town for the tour de Tucson. The hotel was super conveniently located next to the start line of the tour. The staff were very accommodating. They let us store our bikes there before our room was ready. We also kept our car parked there until the event was over. Super chill place. I would recommend.

Stayed here for a week in the early summer. Room was a good size, plenty of space to move around. Would have liked some kind of table or desk though in the room we were staying in, had to do all my computer stuff on the bed. Temperature in the room was comfortable. Bathroom was nice. I never had a problem with parking, and I always felt safe but would have liked an extra lock on the door just for peace of mind. The food in the lounge was excellent and the staff were always nice. When we had to cut our stay short they were very understanding and issused us a refund.

Super cute property. The room was simple and beautiful, and the vaulted ceilings and concrete floors/walls were very neat. Loved the midcentury flair. The courtyard and bar were a nice touch. Affordable, easy, and a short walk to downtown Tucson on a shockingly quiet street. Would absolutely stay again!
