We really wanted to like the Oliver House but our stay suffered from so many issues. The good parts were the hospitality, the location, the history, and the shared kitchen space with tea, coffee, and continental breakfast options.Unfortunately, we did not enjoy the room at all. We knew as a historical property, it was going to be rustic but the renovations are so poorly done and the bathroom is still in such rough condition that instead of being charmingly rustic, it was more Motel 6 vibes - decaying and poorly repaired. The private bathroom, which we paid extra for, was comically small with no shelving and a door that didn’t close properly. There was little hot water so only one person got a hot shower. All these issues we can brush off as cosmetic or small inconveniences; the main issue was that the room was unbearably hot and there was no thermostat to control the temperature. It was probably 85+ degrees and impossible to sleep, even with the window open and the fan on. Also there is a transom window above the door which lets all the hallway light in, so that also made it impossible to sleep as the room was never dark. It was also fairly noisy due to the gaps between the doors and thin walls; definitely would be an issue if the hotel was at full occupancy. The room was generally pretty tidy but there were some dust bunnies around the room and an orange juice container under the bed indicating it had not been cleaned. There is also not a lot of furniture in the room, so you’ll be living off the floor.The location is great as it’s walkable to the brewery gulch and Main Street but it’s far enough from the main road as to not have a lot of traffic noise. The only issue with the location is that there is no parking close by and if you have a large car, have mobility limitations, or lots of bags, getting in and out will be tough.At the end of the day, it’s charming on paper but fails as a hotel, defined as a place to get rest, be comfortable, and sleep.

It's under new ownership and I can really appreciate all of the renovations there done around the house. I just wish they would remember to keep the yard clean and not just inside the house. I found 8 screws and a nail out on the fake grass. I ended up having to take the entire yard just to make sure it was safe. There are also some pretty hazardous weeds outside. I'm not the only one in my party that got covered in sharp clingy seedpods. Great place to stay, I just hope the new owners see this.

The Oliver House was a great home away from home for us as we traveled into Bisbee for one night of work! They housed our entire crew, were friendly and accommodating! Great location to walk to restaurants and had everything you needed for a no frills visit! I stayed in room 6 and it had a nice private bathroom and shower! Bonus was the tea/coffee station along with items for breakfast!

What a wonderful little spot! We stayed at room 6, which is important if you’re looking to book here. We spring for the room that has a private bathroom. This is a classic old school multi occupant hotel with central bathroom facilities. Having the bathroom and shower in our room was super convenient. The community restrooms and showers were easily accessible and clean when I popped in. There was even a huge bathtub for you to use, should the need arise.Check in was super easy. It’s a low key kind of staff with modern tech to check in. Plus, the caretaker has an adorable pupper. Check out was as simple as leaving the key in the jar on the counter.There is a community breakfast area stocked with cereal, milk, cookies, two keurig machines, and fruit.Like I mentioned, the room we stayed in had its own bathroom and shower. Additionally, it had a sink and refrigerator in the main room. That was convenient. It’s old, so plugs seemed to be scarce, but that’s to be expected. The WiFi was easy to get on, and was fast enough for the evening. The bed was comfy, and the room was clean. The price was wonderful. The halls were nicely decorated, and the hotel itself is so well located. There’s a water machine and ice machine on the main floor as well.Cons, the walls are THIN! Also, our ceiling fan shook for no reason at night, woke us up a few times. But hey, it’s an old place. We didn’t tell staff, maybe if y’all read this you can have a look at it, ha. So we can’t deduct points, it’s part of the experience. Also, Bisbee being what it is, parking could be tricky. We got lucky.If this place has availabilities when I come, I’ll def stay here again. Hands down the best place I’ve stayed in Bisbee. Would highly recommend.

The best place to stay in Bisbee, hands down! The rooms are clean and the house is well kept for a historical house. We had the opportunity to learn the history of the house throughout town which made it even better to stay there!It is situated in a part of town where you can walk around town and not have to drive which we enjoyed.The decor really brings the house to life and brings the history to the present.The caretaker is amazing, friendly and helpful. We can't wait to go back when they are serving food.There is an area to play board and card games which was nice. We played some good old fashioned games which we enjoyed.There is a sitting area out back where it's nice and quiet. The sitting area out front is peaceful (especially at night) and has a great view of the mine as well as part of the town.Coffee, tea and a light breakfast was served. Just right to start the day and explore the town!If you are looking for a place to stay, I highly recommend this place. If you believe in the paranormal you might get lucky and might have an experience. If you are not into the paranormal, that is ok too! The history alone is worth it.Rooms: Clean and well put together. Supplies such as shampoo, conditioner, lotion, toothpaste, mouthwash and deodorant was in the room.

We stayed at the Oliver House during April of 2022. The rooms are extremely well-priced, and they're located within walking distance of Main St in Bisbee, which makes it walkable from bars in the evening. The view of Bisbee is beautiful, the rooms and bathrooms were clean, Wi-Fi is available, breakfast and coffee are free, and other guests were super nice and willing to make friends. Tricia, the host, was beyond friendly and accommodating. She made us free coffee and breakfast while we were there and gave us recommendations for what to do during the day. There's an outdoor piano on the patio which was a nice surprise, as well as two very friendly, adorable dogs. In addition to the outdoor patio, there's a patio on the second floor with a couch and bed. Super cool space. If you're looking for a fun, quirky place to stay in Bisbee where you can meet friends and explore downtown Bisbee, this is a great option. We'll definitely be returning.

Stayed here for one night. Had an issue with the hostess and one of employees. I walked into the breakfast area and was accused of urinating out of my hotel window which NEVER happened but should have since I got charged 75 dollars extra for it. What did occur was the make shift screen insert left by the window to keep bugs out fell to the ground when trying to insert it. Due to the screens falling, the lady fabricated some elaborate bullshit to charge extra so she could buy some heroin probably

absolutely terrible!! do not recommend to anyone! the manager is extremely rude, run by people who are probably doing meth on the property and overcharging guests to get their fix.
