Desert Oasis B&B

We are very disappointed with the stay so much that we stayed for one night. Even though we had to pay in advance for two nights. What we encountered was bless Pat's heart but she is to old to run a B&B for she is in her late 80's and barely can get around. She has no help and has a neighbor to check in on her and bring her supplies and mail. Her place was charming but in major need of care. We felt we should of be taking care of her. Sad situation for we have not had a vacation for nine years. 1) Below tepid water therefor too cold to take a shower. 2) Had to wash out of the sink. 3) Shower was very dark not enough lighting to see. 4) Water usage was limited. 5) Shower across the hall not in room. 6) No key for our room the door had to be unlocked with other rooms in the same area. 7) Noway to protect our belongings as other people could walk in when they please. 8) There were other larger available private rooms with locking doors but was not available for they are too far for Patty to walk to. 9) When turned on the vent in bathroom mice and roach feces fell down on top of toilet and floor. 10) Bath carpets smelled of urine. 11) No T.V. In room. 12) When I went into kitchen there were mice and rat feces on the floor. 13) The Swimming pool has algae through out the bottom. Sadly, Pat needs to re-evaluate continuing her business without major help.

Pat is a delightful hostess - and her idyllic home a perfect spot to enjoy all aspects of Tucson. In the quiet desert on the east side of the city, her yard and neighborhood kept us happily birding for hours. You’re minutes from the wonderful Saguaro National Forest East, as well as iconic Saguaro Corners restaurant, and a short drive from Tucson itself. She’s very knowledgeable about the area and fun to be with. Her pool is a luxurious bonus!
