Well kept property close to Fourth Avenue

The apartment (duplex) was clean and in great condition. Instructions were accurate and we never needed to disturb the host. Had a Keurig coffee maker with some pods but we grabbed a favorite for the short stay.The bunk bed worked, but probably best for kids.This property is in a great right off 4th Avenue so there was no shortage of noise as the bars nearby closed down on weekend nights. Our stay occurred when UofA was in session. That does not reflect on the property, just an observation. The price of convenience to the action.Would stay here again with the right size group or with 2 adults sharing the main bedroom.

Nice Tucson Stay

We would have said excellent location but for us old ladies the night life noise was disruptive at night. But it was convenient to 4th, the University etc. overall it was a very nice stay and the place was very well equipped. Thank you Christopher!

Iron equis

Generally speaking, it was a really a great place. Only reason I didn’t give it five stars was some neighborhood street noise and the lighting in the bathroom areas were dim, especially for shaving, etc. quite small potato's, so 4 1/2 stars in my book…

Nice Place

This was a nice place to stay and was surprisingly quiet for the location. We only needed one room. The bunk beds may work well for children. The cost is rather high but I suppose that's because of its location.

Great location

Great location. House was cozy. Only thing I would say is the bathroom in the living room is very small so if you’re going with multiple people who you may not want to share a bathroom with be aware as it’s a part of the living room so very little privacy. Host was great.

Only there for a short stop, but the place worked out great for us. Great coffee shop across the street, easy access to public transportation and close to campus. Hosts were very responsive and very friendly. We'd return next time we're in Tuscon!

Great property - in the heart of it.

Just a quick one night stay to swap a puppy with my cousin and his wife from California (we came from Austin). House was very clean and looks just like the photos. Parking is a bit tricky, but manageable with the parking permit provided. Great location especially for those who like a little nightlife.

Nice home downtown

House was very clean, had towels, pans, plates, nice aesthetic. Room was comfortable, nice air conditioning. Renters responded quickly (within 5 minutes). Everything went perfect! One to thing to keep in mind is that there is limited parking especially since it’s downtown. You only have a permit for 1 vehicle and you have to get there before 6PM to get a parking before they get taken. Luckily, there is a parking garage 3 minutes away.
