The reason for the lower stars is that the upon arrival you will learn the owners control the temperature from a remote location. If you go o/s their designated parameters they will "be alerted and you will incur additional charges. be aware- you will potentially be cold/hot depending on time of year and you will be charged if you run the heat/a/c. Not great.

All was good.

Property was clean, everything worked, the bed very comfortable and the record player accompanied by older 78 speed records was a bonus. A privacy fence, which was not shown in the online photos, was both a plus and a minus. The view from patio was hindered, but it did offer privacy from the next door apartment.

Adorable and Quiet

The casita was very clean, tastefully decorated and adorable! The property management was friendly, professional and was genuinely concerned about making sure that I had a great stay. Excellent communication, easy check-in process, comfortable bed and couch and plenty of kitchen and bathroom linens. Shower is a tiny corner one with a shower curtain but the tile is lovely and clean. I would recommend this cute casita, it is well-equipped and very peaceful.

Good stay

We enjoyed our stay. The apartment was as listed. Clean and easy to access. To our benefit the big house was not rented at this time so all was peace and quiet. On the down side there was no real storage in the bedroom one small dresser not good for two people. If you are a tv watcher it is not friendly. Bed was very comfortable and we slept well. Location was great and easy access to all the thinks we like to do. Over all good rental.

A lovely place!

My three days attending a conference so I spent not much time at the VRBO. What I really appreciated were the on site W/D, hot water, easy to regulate AC/heat and TV. I'm practical and in a hurry so these things matter to me! One note. If you arrive late after dark, the metal numbers for the key access are silver and difficult to see with bright phone flashlight reflection. The property folks were immediate in response. I got it on third try!

Rekaxing time in Tuscon

Always wanted to see Tucson and this was the perfect place to stay. We were out and about most days and this place was perfect: large enough for the two of us with all the essentials for daily living. Very restful. Loved being underneath the mountains - especially in the early morning. We would definitely book again. We are pretty particular about mattresses and this one was lerfwct - just right. Shower ver unique and fun.

Quaint

The casita was basic and adequate for the 4 nights that we stayed there. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. The refrigerator was small and an older model, but it worked. There were ample dishes, but could use more silverware. No dishwasher, but that was OK for the two of us. It was disappointing to discover that the website listed the unit having 1 1/2 baths. There was no half bath.

very well maintained property in excellent location

this looks a garage conversion from the 1980-s or 90's. (receptacles for landline clips in several walls). There was no skimping on the towels or bed linens. The mattress was firm. Stacking washer/dryer very efficient. ample space in bathroom. Wifi connection sometimes temperamental.(go to headboard of bed to assure connection.) Unfortunately the weather was terrible and I caught covid. Given the ample space and privacy it was an excellent location to isolate. Too cold and rainy to try out the patio, which looked good. Shady location: probably comparatively cool in hot weather. Driveway a bit challenging, but not problematic. The couple in the larger unit were quite friendly. The microwave seems on its last legs. I don't watch TV so can't speak to it. Definitely recommend.
