Safe spot for a single female

Was able to book this last minute. Near the university - not far from anything. Felt safe in the area - in a neighborhood. Nice to have a working kitchen. Small but perfect for some simple meals.

Quaint casita by UofA

Nice detached casita. Perfect for one person or a couple. The location was perfect for me as I was visiting my son at the University. The host was very accommodating. It was nice that they had bikes you could use, I enjoyed exploring the campus. The claw tub/shower was a little hard to navigate, but I made it work.

Pleasant stay

The host was very responsive to our request for another blanket as it was a uniquely, strange cold weekend in Tucson. The place was as advertised. Finding the parking in the dark was difficult but the directions were just good enough. The bed springs are a bit used up and I woke up with a bit of a neck strain. A few more instructions on how to use the heating would have been great. Well worth the price.

An Excellent Location

We enjoyed this casita except for one thing. The cast iron tub was too high and slippery for us at our ages of 80. Thus I could not bathe while staying there. The water flow at the sink was restricted, too. So the bathroom was not our favorite.

Charming comfortable cottage in a great location

This place is so cozy, nicely tucked away but right in the middle of a pleasant neighborhood. Hosts are easy to work with and very helpful. Cottage itself is bright and comfortable. We were very happy there during our one week stay. Great to have Landry and parking! Walking distance to the totally terrific Time Market where they have delicious pizza, bread, sweets, breakfast and sandwiches as well as groceries (including nice produce) and interesting beer & wine and a wine bar…Tucson can sometimes seem “sprawly” but not when you are staying in this pleasant neighborhood spot.

Tucson Casita

Loved our stay in this quaint, historic casita. The pictures are exactly as it is inside. Had everything we needed and our host was very attentive. Perfect for a couple. Very walkable location. The Time Cafe has great food and fun to explore the neighborhood. The location was central enough in Tuscon for our family visits and the events we had planned. Happy the hotels were all booked up!
