Great option in Tucson

While the listing says "rustic", that should be read as a statement of style, not quality. This is a cool place with lots of personal character. Everything about it went smoothly. We got to meet the owners, who were doing some work on another unit (nothing that disturbed our stay at all). They are neat people, he is a very talented metal worker, which shows in the great work he's done on this property. We would stay here again.

Cozy Casita - Great Stay

The Casita was very nicely furnished, exactly as depicted on the website. The little covered patio area out back was very nice for sitting out with a cup of coffee in the morning or glass of wine at night. Very private Very quiet and comfortable with good coffee provided. Perfect for one person or a couple. Hosts were great in terms of communication, easy check-in even late at night. I would stay here again.

A great pied-a-terre in a very convenient location

The is a well-furnished, well-appointment stand alone studio casita with offstreet parking. The neighborhood is very quiet in spite of being close to a major thoroughfare and close to downtown Tucson and the University. There are many varied dining options within a short walk. The hosts are responsive and pleasant. We really enjoyed our stay.

A perfect little VRBO stay

The place was amazing. Comfy and clean. The attention to detail in this place was incredible. We did not spend a lot of time here as we had business meetings all day, but the little back patio was awesome as well. Would stay here again if in Tucson.

Oasis in Central Tucson Location

This small, attractive studio apartment had everything I needed for a base for my week in Tucson. It has a well-equipped kitchen with helpful extras like spices and ziploc bags. It was a real treat to have private outdoor space. I was in town for an event that took us to the university and outside of town in all directions. This was the perfect central location. I’d definitely stay there again!

High Quality Casita

This cozy casita was perfect! My husband and I found it warm and inviting with attention paid to every possible detail. The furnishings and construction were top quality and the Southwestern decor was tastefully done. A wonderful spot for a 2-person accommodation in Tucson!

Clean and Cozy Studio!

This property worked perfectly for me. It is extremely clean, private and secure. When I saw the pictures of the inside of this unit, I had high expectations and I am glad to say that it lived up to my expectations - it is a very comfy place to stay. I grilled a steak on the back patio and found that the kitchen is well appointed with everything you might need to cook.
