Stay at the Historic San Jose House Room 4 Doc Holliday

The Legendary San Jose House on Fremont Street is in Tombstone's Historic District. The San Jose House, was built 1879 as Tombstone's 1st boarding house and is one of Tombstone's oldest structures. We are a short distance to main street, the Tombstone Epitaph and The Crystal Palace Saloon. The San Jose House is historically documented, appeared in movies, and also TRUE WEST Magazine. Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, Batt Masterson, and many others stayed here including Josephine Marcus. Enjoy Mountain Views and the Sunrise with your morning coffee from our covered porch. Hang your hat & park your boots in The Town Too Tough To Die, and stay at the historic "San Jose House" in the heart of downtown Tombstone.

Great stay in Tombstone

An original building with character. Across the street from everything Tombstone offers. Not a modern motel. Had a comfortable bed, flat screen tv, and microwave and mini fridge

Proximity to downtown was great. The room was clean, but floor was uneven and the shower was TINY. The exterior looks uninviting, particularly the window sills.

Cute but needs better onsite assistance

Room was small but cute. Plumbing didn't work had to use room next door for restroom and showers. But didn't offer to move us to the room. Just had to go next door every time we needed restroom. We were the only guests

Tombstone

Bare basics, sparse amenities. Only thing going for this place was historic Tombstone. Very clean inside, but needs Maintenance outside rundown looking. Sporadic Internet, TV did not work ,kept cutting out. No checkout instructions.

Couldn’t sleep

Air conditioner was screeching all night. So loud we had to turn it off to try to sleep. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. When we informed them the next morning, their response was “ we can’t fix it it’s just old.” The shower head was also broke spraying & leaking everywhere.. I will say it was decorated cute.

Convenient to all things Tombstone!

We enjoyed our stay at Tombstone. Apartment was clean and within walking distance to everything! It was nice to be able to walk back to the apartment when needed very easily. Bed was very comfortable. It was nice to have someone on site to give us clean towels when needed.

Enjoyed the experience of staying where figures of the Old West had stayed. Short walk to the historic section of Tombstone for sightseeing, shopping & dining. Parking would have been OK for tying up a horse, but not so good for vehicles. LOL Might be better if there were marked spaces. Last night there, someone parked a large pickup in front of the rooms & barely left room for 2 vehicles.

Very Clean. Check-in & Check-out was seamless. Great location to walk to all Tombstone tourist attractions. Some basic cable would have been nice, but that is my only complaint.

Great Location

The location is right where you want to be. My wife and I would walk through the shops, drop things off and be back shopping in minutes because of how close we were. Great place, it is dated but we loved the rustic feel and it did have all the modern touches. We will definitely be back.

Wild West

The San Jose House is a perfect location to stay in Tombstone. Walking distance to Historic District about 2mins. A short walk to Boothill Graveyard. The room was great, rustic feel with all the amenities you need. Had deer come up the street and feed right next to my room in the early evening, that was so cool.

Old ok - dirty not ok

How do I request my cleaning fee reimbursed? I knew it would be an old property but did not expect not cleaned. Refridgerator had previous guests items and was dirty. Bathroom sink dirty with toothpaste spittle dried on. Dirty such that I tried to clean it with a wipe but old caked-on spittle was gross to have to clean. MIcrowave ignored for how long?? Definitely would not recommend. Did not take photos or contact onsite manager because family discouraged my doing so. I booked the stay and was embarrassed by lack of cleanliness. Thank goodness sheets were new and clean!!
