The property was clean and comfortable. Temperature inside was lovely despite the unseasonably high temps outside. The location was perfect for walking to restaurants, and having the parking passes was so useful, as we had cars for accessing the national park. All in all, a fabulous stay! Thank you!

The location was perfect for walking the downtown, old town and university areas for restaurants, bars and free tram. The house was very comfortable with all amenities needed. Only down side is the noise from trains and neighbors. All in all a very nice stay.

Great place to stay

Five stars across the board. Everything as decribed, very close to downtown/4th ave, easy to get anywhere in Tucson from there. Great communication from the host. My favorite part was the beds... i travel frequently for work and these are the best beds I've slept on in years on a trip. Thank you.

Great accommodations, excellent location

Marcus's house is in an awesome location; easy walk or public trans ride to downtown and surrounding areas. House is very well appointed, neighborhood felt safe, neighbors were friendly and informative. Being new to VRBO rentals, this one set the bar pretty high. All and all an excellent experience that made the trip to Tucson that much better.

Steps away from downtown

Great location to downtown area. Girl friends went for a concert at the Rialto, but didn’t want to stay downtown with the street noise. This house was perfect and exactly what we hoped for. Great communication, clean, and comfortable beds and space. We were able to walk to and from downtown and felt safe.

Nice Little House in Downtown Tucson

Though the house itself is old, it has been nicely updated and is very comfortable. Had all the necessary stuff. The location is close to train tracks so there is some noise but it's not too bad.

A great place to stay with some small glitches

we did not get the text explaining the checkin process on the day before our move in. We had to make calls on the day we arrived to get the information. The neighborhood was wonderful, especially the short walk to the free trolly that took us to most of the places we wanted to go.

About the host

Hosted by Marcus Hinojosa

Host profile image
My wife, Sandra, is a Tucson native and a proud graduate of the University of Arizona, and I’ve called Tucson home for over 30 years. We’ve been married for more than 30 years and are part of a 6th-generation Arizona family.

Hosting gives us the opportunity to share what we love most about “The Old Pueblo.” We take pride in providing a clean, comfortable stay and creating a welcoming experience for every guest who visits Tucson.

Why they chose this property

This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home puts you just one minute from Downtown Tucson and the vibrant 4th Avenue district—close enough to walk to everything, yet tucked into a vibrant historic area where you can relax. You get the best of both worlds: comfort, convenience, and an authentic Tucson experience all in one place.

What makes this property unique

What makes this property stand out is its unbeatable location and access to everything Tucson has to offer.

Step outside and you’re just minutes from great local restaurants, craft beer bars, and a coffee shop right across the street. The Tucson Convention Center is only a 10-minute walk, and the free Sun Link streetcar is just 3 minutes from your doorstep—making it easy to explore Downtown, 4th Avenue, and the University of Arizona without a car.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Tucson is a paradise. You’ll have access to nearly 250 miles of paved and off-road biking and hiking trails, many of which are just minutes away.

It’s the perfect mix of walkability, convenience, and access to Tucson’s best experiences.
