Had everything we needed but a bit inconvenient - multiple gates, codes, lockboxes. Getting luggage up the spiral staircase, no bathroom downstairs.

A very nice home. The getting in with all the different locks and codes was a little complicated. The heat didn’t work, but the owner immediately fixed it so very thankful for that. He’s awesome. Overall, a great experience minus the jigsaw puzzle lol would definitely stay here again.

Close drive to U of A where my son had his internship at. Grocery shopping, food, cat cafe, & Ross near by. Host was great with any & all communication. Cozy and pretty quiet place to stay with a grill, washer, & dryer. TV in upstairs & downstairs areas as well. Will definitely stay here again if I go to Tucson again
