Nice home in Tuscon!!

The property was nice and the communication with the manager was excellent. We did not encounter any significant issues. We were missing a pan needed to cook with and the owner went out of her way to drop off a brand new set! Would definitely stay here again if I was in the area.

Review:

Marketing info was accurate. Fairly humble abode in a good location. Would benefit from more deck furniture.

Sun Seeking

We really loved staying at this house! The manager is very attentive and the house well kept. It is full of interesting a relaxing spaces with natural light. It worked well for a "working-vacation" spot while we visited our UA student daughter and hiked and ate our way around greater Tucson.

Fantastic

We loved this house. Great location, good parking, nice patio and overall fantastic value. The fourth bedroom is behind a door that does not look like an access door, but it is. The steps are steep, so you need to have agile people to utilize the room. It's a good use of space and kind of a fun room. I would rent this place again.
