Great location for experiencing all that Tucson has to offer! Loved the brewpub and NYPD Pizza, which were a block away. Easy access to public transit. DT and 4th Ave are walking distance. As is the best coffee I've ever had...Presta Coffee! And I know my coffee.Felt very safe, as a solo female traveler.Bed and overall vibe was very comfy. Loved the SW decor touches. Just the right amount of "boho". Thank you for a great stay!

It was adorable! The only reason I have one of the items about how it relates to online was because the pictures show no stove but there is! A whole kitchen we were able to prepare meals in! It was clean, the bed was comfortable/the couch! I fell in love with that couch it was so comfortable! The host was very communicative, and polite! The Only only thing I could have wished more for was water pressure in the shower but I understand that sometimes those things can’t be helped and that’s okay it didn’t take away from our stay at all!

Host was welcoming it was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the water pressure in the shower was so low and they said they'd fix it but did not. Also, there was no basic first aid kit in the home which feels like a necessity

We stayed here during the time that we dropped our daughter off to college. We chose this property due to the proximity to campus and the pictures online. The hosts were incredible at communication - absolutely exceeded expectations. The location was a very short walk to campus and we enjoyed the area very much. The rental unit is on the top floor of a triplex and we found it smaller than we expected but candidly it was on par with the description for the unit - so that was entirely on us.

Good but could be better
Overall the apartment was fine it just needed to be cleaned better and updated. Like the floors and shower and such. And the couch could have used a better cleaning as well.

Had a wonderful stay at this charming and spotless loft apartment! The location was perfect—close to campus and in a great neighborhood. Communication with the owner was excellent, and they were incredibly responsive to any questions. Had a minor issue with hot water, but it was resolved quickly and efficiently. Overall, a fantastic experience, and would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

Convenient Location, Responsive Property Manager
Great stay overall! The property manager was very responsive when we had some plumbing issues with the shower and sink, everything was fixed by the next day, and they checked in to make sure we were comfortable. The location is convenient for a quick stay near the University. We appreciated the host’s willingness to work with us on a fair resolution, which made for a positive experience.
