Bright, welcoming little house in a charming neighborhood

The natural light and bright southwest colors make this house feel spacious. The walled backyard has both sun and shade at all times of the day; our mini-schnauzers had a wonderful vacation too. We enjoyed the neighbors we chatted with when we walked the dogs. The location, east of downtown and the university,,meant that everything we wanted was quite close. Be sure to go to Barrio Bread.

Good for our one night stay

We arrived at the property at 6 PM, and everything was ready for us, clean, tidy, and fresh. It was quite cold in Tucson that night, so the house was very chilly, but we finally managed to warm it up. The backyard backs up to Speedway Blvd which results in quite a bit of traffic noise. I think if we were there any longer, the traffic noise may have been a problem. We were only there one night and it was too cold to be in the backyard, so it worked out fine for us. We appreciate the clean and comfortable accommodations.

Stay at Peter Howell Property

We had a great stay at this property. The hosts, Taylor & Yuko, were great in communicating with us on a frequent basis and responded quickly to any questions and requests. There were just the two of us but, with the extra bedroom, the house could accommodate more people. The very large backyard was great for our dog. The location is great and it was easy to get around town from here.

Clean & Cozy for Family Getaway to Saguaro National Park

My husband and myself along with our 15 month old infant and small dog travelled to Tucson for a short getaway to hike and explore Saguaro National Park. The Adobe house was a perfect fit for our family - 2 bedrooms, 1 bath with an ideal location to both sides of the national park. The home is equal distance - 30 minutes each way. Upon arrival, the keys were easy to access and the home was just so cozy and quaint from the outside appearance. As a family with an infant who loves to explore on the floor, we were appreciative of the level of cleanliness of the home. The place was spotless with no sign of dirt or grime. The bathroom was immaculate and we felt right at home. The hosts provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay and to clean up after ourselves (kitchen sponge, coffee, dish soap, ample clean towels, etc.) The most underrated feature of the home - THE SHOWER. Between the intense water pressure and massaging shower head, it was a hit with our family. The door in the back bedroom (didn’t check the front room) did not lock or shut all of the way, so if you’re not comfortable with it open, this may not be the property for you. Since our infant slept in one room and us in the other, this was not an issue for us. The back room has a sliding door to access the large backyard. We enjoyed meals and sitting at the table in the backyard. It was relaxing and enjoyable! Behind the home is a business and busy room that can get noisy, but once inside, you do not hear much road noise. The ease of access to getting around Tucson mattered more to us than the city sounds around us while sitting outside. The hosts were very friendly and easy to communicate with. The messaging feature in my VRBO app isn’t working; however, I easily was able to communicate with them via text. Overall, 10/10 and we would highly recommend the Adobe House to any of our friends or family. Great property, cozy, clean, and comfortable!
