Great home

The home was just like it looks in the pictures. We loved the home and the open feel. The kitchen is large and has all you need. The bedrooms were roomy and clean. The only thing that could be better and more comfortable is the living room furniture. The host was responsive to our questions. We would stay here again.

A Lovely Stay in an Historic Tucson Home

The large "Bees Knees" home is in the Palo Verde neighborhood near a lot of restaurants, shopping, etc. It's been completely renovated with new plumbing and electric but the 1930's charm remains. Our host, Charlie, was very responsive to our questions and made sure we were comfortable. The large home can easily accommodate a family, with four bedrooms, one of which has bunk beds ideal for younger children. The kitchen is wonderful with gas stove, microwave and large refrigerator, featuring ice maker and water dispenser. The large TV in the living was so easy to use using Roku or your own streaming services. I would recommend this home when coming Tucson.

Fabulous Find

The home was bright and cheerful and had small, exciting little gifts around every turn. The location was easy to get to and from. Very accessible to the restaurants and soccer fields. The home was quiet and comfortable. The remodel was done with an appreciation of the past and made it a fun place to rest and relax on our trip.
