Bright, welcoming little house in a charming neighborhood

The natural light and bright southwest colors make this house feel spacious. The walled backyard has both sun and shade at all times of the day; our mini-schnauzers had a wonderful vacation too. We enjoyed the neighbors we chatted with when we walked the dogs. The location, east of downtown and the university,,meant that everything we wanted was quite close. Be sure to go to Barrio Bread.

Great property!!

Nice place and it worked well for me, my husband and our two pug dogs because there is a big yard for them to roam around. It was convenient location and close to a lot of restaurants, shopping etc.. I would definitely stay again if I ever need to go back to Tucson.

Good for our one night stay

We arrived at the property at 6 PM, and everything was ready for us, clean, tidy, and fresh. It was quite cold in Tucson that night, so the house was very chilly, but we finally managed to warm it up. The backyard backs up to Speedway Blvd which results in quite a bit of traffic noise. I think if we were there any longer, the traffic noise may have been a problem. We were only there one night and it was too cold to be in the backyard, so it worked out fine for us. We appreciate the clean and comfortable accommodations.

Stay at Peter Howell Property

We had a great stay at this property. The hosts, Taylor & Yuko, were great in communicating with us on a frequent basis and responded quickly to any questions and requests. There were just the two of us but, with the extra bedroom, the house could accommodate more people. The very large backyard was great for our dog. The location is great and it was easy to get around town from here.

Great off street parking, private outdoor space in back, cozy inside. Loved the neighborhood. Our only complaint was there was occasionally street noise from Speedway, but it wasn’t much. The kitchen is great. 2-miles from UofA. Cute place. Would definitely stay there again.
