What a nice spot. The hosts left very clear instructions for everything! It is a converted garage and super nice. I'm not usually a solo traveler so, at first, i was, naturally, a bit uneasy. But i could tell the hosts were home and had been vetted by VBRO and ALL of their other guests so I quickly relaxed and used my time to unwind. While i never met the hosts, our communication was always promt, professional and inquisitive as to how they could make my stay as comfortable as possible. I highly recommend this clean, quiet and comfortable stay.

Fantastic area in the Swan/Sunrise area with great views of the Catalina Mountains. The weather during our two-night stay was perfect for outdoor dining at nearby pubs and restaurants.The directions to the property were clear and the location felt very safe. No problems checking in or out. The property is exactly as the pictures posted by the host. The host was friendly, attentive and responsive.The property had everything we needed for our two-night stay. A nice large refrigerator for storing extra water, drinks or leftovers was in this suite. The smart TV had a number of channels to watch and the WiFi connection was strong. There was a nice deep tub for soaking that we enjoyed. Shampoo, conditioner, soap, plenty of towels and other amenities were provided.The outside patio was private and intimate. Nearby traffic noise was a bit of a bother but we soon tuned it out.This was a nice, cozy and very clean suite. I highly recommend this spot If you are in Tucson.

The apartment was conveniently located for our one night stay in Tucson, and all the amenities were adequate to meet our needs. However, the plug in air freshener scent was overpowering us and the parking a bit awkward.

I loved my stay here! The space was very clean and cozy and there was no noise. The bed was so comfortable! It is hard to come by a pet-friendly space, so I am very thankful for short term rentals that allow pets. There is no fence for your pets, just an FYI! The neighborhood is very nice, and I went for a couple of long walks while there. I highly recommend it!

Second Honeymoon Disappointment

At arrival we were taken aback that this was a room behind a garage. That wasn’t made clear in the listing. There was a beware dog sign on the homeowners window. When we entered the room it was cute as pictured and they thought of many extras. Cute little patio with two chairs ..great view of neighbors yard and of the mountains. Homeowners refuse trash cans to the left of the patio. There is a gap creating a clear line of sight into the bathroom even when the barn door was closed. The main dealbreaker was the extremely intense fragrance. It choked us up..it made my eyes burn. Being a leukemia survivor this was not good for me. There is also a big skylight that you can’t close or dim. I did not see anything about this on the listing or I wouldn’t have booked as I am light sensitive because of radiation years ago. Called VRBO who contacted homeowner because we couldn’t stay there..again a special second honeymoon. VRBO did not help to secure a new place to stay but had to wait on the homeowner. Before we left I heard from homeowner. He said he couldn’t process a refund until stay was over and apologize bed for the strong scent blaming it on laundering the rugs. A few days later I get an approximate 30% refund!! I messaged the homeowner and i haven’t received a response. I again contacted VRBO. I am awaiting a response from VRBO who is waiting on response from the homeowner yet again. I would like a full refund.

Cute place

My daughter, granddaughter and I were in Tucson for daughters dogs surgery, so we stayed just one overnight. The place was cute and tidy however the ad said there was a futon for second place to sleep and it was actually a sofa pull out bed which was horrible to sleep on or should I say not to sleep. (Maybe ok for kids to sleep on) And waking up to barbells slamming on the floor at 6:00 -6:30 in the morning in the morning was not pleasant (Their home gym shares a full wall to the space) Owner was kind enough to shut the very bright outdoor lights off after we asked in the evening before bed. But i would suggest having then on automatic shut off in early evening so people can enjoy the stars or for sleeping. Location was nice... close to whatever one might need but in a quiet neighborhood and the space nicely decorated although I would suggest putting some actually flooring in as opposed to painted cement floor for a finished look and warmer feel. The rates were reasonable compared to many other crazily priced short term rentals. Overall an ok stay.
