This adorable casita was the perfect place to rest our heads after an event that we were in town for. Bob & Kay were incredibly accommodating and kind - also thank you for the recommendation about the events going on downtown! We will definitely check this location out again if our travels bring us back to Tuscon!

This was the cleanest place we have ever stayed! Bob and Kay have thought of every detail to make your stay enjoyable and seamless, such as plenty of K-cups, offers to replenish; plush towels; detailed guides and menus with personal annotations regarding distance, hours, and transportation; to a thoughtful nightlight in the bathroom! And they are completely responsive and available to provide assistance! And the location gives you easy access to so many adventures! This was a perfect stay in every way. We will definitely be back someday.

We stayed one night. It was quiet and had everything we needed. It was not in the nicest part of town, but a close drive to many things. We did not feel safe running in the neighborhood, but went to Santa Cruz River Park just minutes away with a great run/bike trail that went for miles.The space was teeny tiny, but again had everything we needed. The host was very pleasant, if you get a chance to meet him. Great suggestings for city activities.

Old and Super Small

This room is the smallest I have ever seen. It is very old and needs some basic upgrades to even be passable. I have to say that the owner was easy to contact and was responsive. This room is just not worth any price to be able to use. The beds are kids bunk beds. I should have taken some pictures, but I just stayed out of it as much as possible.

Convenient location to Tucson Arena

This is a very cute casita and we had great communication with the hosts. We will definitely stay there again next time there is an event at the Tucson Arena...just 3 minutes away! The roads are VERY narrow in that neighborhood with everyone parking on the street. If you have an option in vehicles, take the smaller one. Next time, we won't be driving our truck! The bed and chair were a bit uncomfortable/hard, but this could be due to one of us was recovering from a recent knee surgery.

Bravo Barrio Viejo

I did not know much about Tucson and chose this B & B because of cost, and details of the area. It was just wonderful. We had several walks early in the morning, later at night and several meals in the area. All was just beyond expectation. I would highly recommend this B&B and this area of Tucson.

Small, quiet Casita

This small casita has everything you need for a comfortable stay! It boasts a full kitchen with a hideaway table/chairs, a comfortable bunk bed, and an additional chair to relax in. Located in a quiet, historic neighborhood close to the convention center, it was perfect for our stay!

This is the closest you can be to the UofA campus and have access to the I-10 in any area in Tucson. Plenty to see, do, and eat within walking distance. The hosts are communicative and freindly while the property is in immaculate shape. Tucson can be dangerous in some places but this location is safe and secure. I'll definitely be back!

Gem of a Casita

Bob and Kay were amazing and helped in everyway. Even gave me some geological insight to the neighborhood. Close to downtown. Very walkable. You will just want to walk around the neighborhood to take in all the old adobe homes! Many small hidden historical hidden gems I had never seen even after living and biking in Tucson for years. Just a beautiful experience! Highly recommend!

Barrio viejo

Well appointed and neat as a pin cabana with shared patio in Barrio Viejo in downtown Tucson. The owners were very friendly and helpful and made us feel at home. It’s a small space but very well thought out and comfortable. Would recommend highly to anyone wanting to experience Tucson as it was before LBJ’s Model Cities took a wrecking ball to it.
