To sit outside watch the sunset over Mt. Lemmon peaks, in the back yard with the soft lighting, well insulated room, overall decor, and location will definitely look to coming back when in Tucson. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!!!

The location of this charming home is ideal for both visiting the UofA and for exploring the city of Tucson. It is very close to major north-south and east-west roads as well as I-10.The home's layout is also fantastic, especially if staying with friends. The bedrooms are at opposite ends of the hallway with the remodeled bathroom in the middle. This provides for privacy and space. And bonus, the beds were extremely comfortable.We would stay here again.
