We were coming down for family weekend at U of A and looking for a bigger space than just a hotel room, better price point / value , within reasonable distance . This property had it all . Very clean , spacious , well appointed. The large living room area adjoining kitchen was perfect with great size flatscreen & sofa sectional . Only item I would recommend adding would be tv in at least 1 other bedroom , ideally the master . The host was very responsive & accommodating with early check in time. The driveway is a little steep / rocky , so smaller cars proceed slowly vs an suv. Plenty of parking & outdoor lighting was appreciated . It was 8 min drive to the San Xavier Mission, visible from house, since perched on higher ground . We enjoyed the proximity to grocery & dining options too . Even though the property was south of campus & city, it was easy drive back to downtown area . Thank you for great stay !
