EL CONQUISTADOR. HIT OR MISS? WHO AM I? I was a solo traveler, attending a conference for 2.5 days. I had a double room w/balcony facing the casitas. Rm 1225 near the elevators, stairs, and parking lot. WHAT IS MY OVERALL IMPRESSION? I have read mixed reviews on several travel platforms about this property. Which is a quandary. For starters, the resort is built on a mountain. If your room is outside of the main hotel, there will be walking involved... and possibly huffing and puffing. I'm pretty fit and it was 100° plus outdoors and I had to take an extra breath or so. But I learned well. Don't forget anything in the car. Perhaps because I was here during a conference I lucked out. I experienced excellent guest relations, restaurant services, and enjoyed the property feverishly. I watched three movies in my room, slept well and was refreshed throughout my stay. The biggest bang for me was that the property is located within an established and well developed community. I had a car so all of the conveniences I have as a San Diego city girl were within 2 miles of this property (Walmart, Sprouts, restaurants, Dollar Tree, CVS, gas). There is even an aquatic center with water slides, pools and fun less than two miles away. Hold up! the Sabino Canyon and Santa Catalina hiking were 4-15 miles. I mean, this was perfect for me and my interests. If I had more days, I might have enjoyed the pool and fire pits. Since I've never been to Tucson and the MOUNTAINS were speaking directly to my soul, I pursued outdoor endeavors. Were The Resort Activities Accurate? The resort activities matched the calendar. The piano musician was delightful. I ate here the first night, at the bar which was a chicken poblano quesadilla. The chicken white meat was tough, boiled and bland so I only ate one triangle. But it was big enough for two. Since I had my own transportation it wasn't worth eating at the hotel. TELL ME A BIT ABOUT THE ROOMS? The hotel prides itself on cleanliness and sanitation with fixated stickers on bathroom mirrors. I assure you this may not be communicated to housekeeping. This needs to be improved. The room I stayed in was 3.8/5. WHAT WAS CHECKOUT RESPONSE? At check-out, I received a lovely! ”I hope you enjoyed your stay text.” Last, you can literally watch the sunrise right from the property. Perhaps your own balcony. Winning! WHAT WERE THE THUMBS DOWN? Lighting in the bathroom and the vanity area sucks for makeup application Hot water was warm Slow water sink flow Shower head needs to be replaced, I think a bird would appreciate the shower. Bath gel empty. I brought my own but I do still check. HIGH FIVES Aesthetically inviting property. If your profession is landscape architect, kudos. Love the hotel lobby and entry doors. Plenty of small quaint and quiet areas to read, study, chat, convene, or enjoy the scenery. Linda Vista trail can be accessed from the property. Keep straight past the golf course AND the tennis courts. You'll see a
