My wife stayed in room one last month and she has done nothing but talk about it every since. We visited our daughter at The University and found The Big Blue House to be the perfect place to conduct our business / pleasure activities. The rooms are far superior to a conventional hotel. The cont. breakfast was the only negative aspect but we made good use of the kitchen in our room.

We stayed in Unit B- decorated in antique style...private bathroom across the hall, but all other units have self-contained bathroom. This place worked very well for us- good value, friendly people, and easy to get around Tucson and surrounding areas.

Very nice, clean, and quiet inn. I stayed in a separate apartment away from the main inn. It included a full kitchen. Very neat and clean. Close to Univ. of Arizona.

Stayed over Christmas to visit family in area. Pleasantly surprised. Inn was comfortable, quiet, clean and had plenty of privacy. Stayed in room with kitchen and worked great. Porch was great even though it was raining. Will definitely make this a "go to" destination in Tucson whenever in town.

We stayed downstairs in the safari room. The attention to detail with decorating was impressive. Absolutely loved the wrap around porch, we enjoyed it in the morning and evening. My husband was very happy with the cable, having all the movie channels was a treat. We prefer having our breakfast at our leisure. They supplied wonderful pastries and a fridge full of juice, coffee was great. Try restaurants owned by locals away from 4th Ave.

The Big Blue House is perfectly situated and superbly run to provide a comfortable, charming college-town experience in Tucson. The hospitality of Lea Ramsey and her spouse create an inviting atmosphere and combine with an elegant but casual decor to create a comfortable while simultaneously professionally done ambiance. Artistic appointments, extra touches, and updated features and fixtures to present the best of old time and 21st century sensibilities. Altogether a great spot to stay.

Our visit to Tucson was made extra special due to our discovery of The Big Blue House. We were impresses by the pictures on the web site and were not disappointed this time. The room we had was spacious and was far nicer that any B&B we have had experience with. The concept of stocking our kitchen with all kinds of different edibles was most unusual... and we loved it! We were able to prepare meals and/or snack any time we desired. The location can't be beat for central Tucson.

The Big Blue House was exactly what we needed. Great location close to the University of Arizona and 4th Ave. The place was interesting, comfortable and spotlessly clean. We will be back. Thanks Lea!
