Great home base

This was a great place for our family of four - close to downtown and near the highway for out of town adventures. Very comfortable and clean and we were able to spread out when we needed to. Great kitchen, and the casita was very cute. Luis was super helpful and responsive.

Beautiful and comfortable home in a great historic neighborhood

It is a beautifully (and tastefully) updated historic home in Barrio Viejo. Walkable to downtown and very quiet. Everything was comfy for me and my 5 friends for our girls' trip. Very functional, clean, and just all-around perfect! Thanks, Luis!!! I will be sending anyone visiting Tucson to this property.

Nice, Cleanning and convenient home

This is a nice and clean vacation home. It’s convenient located in Tucson. The house has a separate casita, which works well with our trip. The casita kept our daughter having quit sleep while we could freely stay at the main house. The owner, Luis, is very caring and pays attention to detail. That reflects he has chosen such comfortable new beddings and full Kichen wares. Luis is following up often to ensure our stay is as good as expected. He especially delivered a shampoo/conditioner and chop board for our needs. We appreciate Luis’ hospitality and looking forward to come back next time in Tucson.

Great Place, Great Location

We had a wonderful time at the Gem Show this year. This property is within 20 minute walking distance of the Pueblo show, along a bike path. It's also a short drive or a long-ish walk to local eateries in old town. We loved this home, it is very roomy and nicely renovated. Luis is an exceptionally responsive host.
