This quaint home in Tucson is lovely. It had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully equipped and it nice to work in. I was a little concerned in one bedroom, as the wall outlets are weak and my phone charger literally fell out of it. Other than this tiny detail, I would literally stay here again.

The kitchen was well stocked with really nice dishes, the rooms very comfortable. This adorable little house is super cute and all of the neighbors were very nice. The outdoor patio space was so relaxing. I was bringing my handicapped daughter and it was nice to find a place without carpeting and the handicapped accessible bathroom. Highly recommend!

Nice place would stay again.

Very well equipped kitchen was appreciated. The location is "central" in that downtown is to the west and the newer section of Tucson to the East. Lots of restaurant options. Overall it was quiet. But one morning one of the neighbors started his "fart car" and it literally shook the house. But it only happened once.

Great outdoor space for people and pets! Securely fenced yard and parking area. Parking is shared with other rental on site so needed to bring dogs in when other guests were parking but wasn’t an issue during our stay. Very much enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay again.

Conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood. Neighbors walking dogs saying hello while we relaxed in our yard was an added pleasant surprise. Super cute and clean, and close to my favorite Whole Foods Market for groceries. Hiked in several locations around Tucson and it was an easy drive to and from Bungalow with plenty of quick stops for lunch or dinners. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

I love staying in this cute casita while visiting family in Tucson. My daughters and I stayed here last year and this year it was my husband and I. It is close to the family and also pretty much all of Tucson. It’s got everything we need and then some. We hosted a dinner one night and my aunt recalled someone else they knew staying here and enjoyed it. If we come back again as a small group we would always check for availability here first! Thank you!
