Nice house

The house is cool but the neighborhood was less scenic than other areas. It’s my fault for not looking at the location more carefully and we spent the bulk of our time by UofA which is a 10-minute drive. It’s clean and comfortable; the parking is good and I was grateful for the gate that closed.

Tucson '40s Adobe

We had a wonderful stay and great rental experience. House was very clean and well appointed. It was a great base for us as we explored Tucson and the surrounding area. The hosts were great! Excellent communication with them both prior to and during our stay.

Tucson

The house was clean and was spacious w room for all. The notice said close to downtown and the University. I took that to mean that one could walk to those locations. Maybe it’s Tucson but walking wasn’t an option so I was disappointed. But the weather was great!

Quality Tucson location close to great downtown restaurants and vibe

It was well equipped, and ready for us. We enjoyed easy access to get out to hiking trails, on the interstate, go to the university, and very much enjoyed going downtown to Galleries and restaurants.

Clean, comfortable and modern

This was a lovely VRBO to stay at. It was very clean, comfortable and modern. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and the dining room table was absolutely lovely. The bedrooms were well furnished. And it is close to downtown. I wish the ample outdoor space was more livable - coming to Tucson in the winter, it's nice to be outside but there wasn't much setup for that beyond the small patio out front despite a fairly sizable yard. Overall, we all enjoyed our time there and Wendy was very responsive and helpful.

Hiking and brewery exploring

This home was perfect for our mini vacation. I would have given the location a 5 if it had more things in walking distance. We enjoy walking to dinner at night. The recommendations from the owners were wonderful. The drive to different areas was very easy. Wendy and Alan were super easy to work with.

UA Homecoming

Easy to find, nice home! Clean and host was communicative. The only little issue was it got very cold when we were there and the system for air/heat is controlled by the host. So we were not able to put in heat mode. They eventually did switch it over remotely. But overall a good stay! Thank you

Good location and very comfortable home

The home had everything we needed. We have special dietary needs, and the kitchen was well equipped so we could make our meals there and not worry about restaurant food. Everything worked. It is a good location. We enjoyed our stay.

Confortable stay with my family during an out of town catering event. It was nice to finish working and come to a place that feels homey rather than a hotel. Great hosts!
