Great location, very quiet neighborhood!
We had a wonderful time touring Tucson and the house was convenient to all attractions we wanted to see as well as being close to shopping and restaurants. One suggestion for owners...stock some microwave safe dishes for reheating foods. Cheers!On o

Quick Stay in Tucson
Great location! Quiet neighborhood! All the amenities that I needed! I travel to Tucson four or five times a year for work and usually stay at a hotel but I happened to come during the Tucson Gem Show and the hotels were astronomical! Searched VRBO and found this place for a third of what my normal hotel would have been this week. It was everything I needed and had all my normal supplies that my hotel room would have had…plus a few more. It was clean, comfortable, easy to access, and very quiet. I’m pleased with my choice!

Affordable, nice stay!
Overall, I enjoyed the stay. The painters were a bit loud but we are early birds so it didn’t really affect our sleep. The appliances in the kitchen were very helpful. We ended up baking cookies! But it was clean and comfy place.
