Disappointing

If you are looking for a step up from your college dorm this is fine. Most of the neighborhood have bars on their windows. The hot water heater gurgles which is by the bedrooms. The shower curtain was not clean. The kitchen sink had been painted and the paint was coming off. We had planned to stay two nights but left after the first night.

Owls in the Palm Trees

Location was safe and quiet. 15 min drive to Suaro National Park East and easy access to Air Force Museum. Enjoyed the private yard with BBQ, fire pit and listening to the pair of hooting owls.

Perfect Desert Accommodation

This was the absolute perfect place for a long weekend while visiting family in Tucson. My husband, 3 year old son, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I all stayed, and we had plenty of space, were able to make ourselves breakfast each morning in the well-stocked kitchen, and the entire property was very kid-friendly. My son absolutely loved the lemon tree in the backyard. It was bright, clean, and spacious. Highly recommend!

Great location for visiting UofAZ and Parks!

My husband, adult daughter and I made the trek from D.C. to Tucson to visit our freshman kiddo at UofAZ. We had visited twice before and wanted to stay in a different part of Tucson, with close proximity to walking trails and Saguaro National Park. We had a great experience all around. The property was just as advertised, and very comfortable and clean. Great kitchen, grill, patio and laundry set up, and great work spaces. Everything we needed! We would highly recommend the property and a visit in mid January!

Exactly as expected

This house is clean, located in a quiet subdivision (perfect for a morning walk). Check in and check out communication was clear and accurate. The kitchen was well-stocked and we were able to dine in a few meals during our five night stay. We often rent homes and it is important that the house is marketed accurately. This house was exactly as expected.
