This small, attractive studio apartment had everything I needed for a base for my week in Tucson. It has a well-equipped kitchen with helpful extras like spices and ziploc bags. It was a real treat to have private outdoor space. I was in town for an event that took us to the university and outside of town in all directions. This was the perfect central location. I’d definitely stay there again!

This property worked perfectly for me. It is extremely clean, private and secure. When I saw the pictures of the inside of this unit, I had high expectations and I am glad to say that it lived up to my expectations - it is a very comfy place to stay. I grilled a steak on the back patio and found that the kitchen is well appointed with everything you might need to cook.

Absolutely perfect accommodations for our 4-night stay in Tucson! The check-in process was easy and the space was perfectly clean and comfortable. The patio was great - nice, private, and relaxing! The space had everything we needed and is perfect for a solo traveler or couples. The private, well-lit entry way was quiet and the neighborhood felt safe and secure. Thank you Mike and Corey! We will certainly be back.

Great communication before my stay and clear communication on the property about details once I was in the Casita. Extremely quiet property and neighborhood, within walking distance to large grocery pharmacy store. This was very handy as the Casita has a well equipped kitchen and an outdoor grill. The hosts have an excellent sense of what guests need when traveling and all equipment was in great condition and working order. The furnishings were perfect. Bed was extremely comfortable, kind of high up but puts you in a perfect position for watching the flat screen! Great lighting. Dining is at the bar with very comfy barstools. The Casita is perfect for a solo traveler or a cozy couple. If you are short and not very agile you may not appreciate the barstool dining or elevated bed, but I think it adds to the cozy charm. I was in town for a football game and decided to Uber to the stadium and the fare was about $9 to the game and expectedly higher afterwards: $17, so the neighborhood was nice enough to begin walking, get away from the stadium and then call Uber. It is about an hour walk. I also looked online and booked a horseback ride at sunset which was about a 15 minute drive from the Casita. Very pleased and I highly recommend

This has been one of my absolute favorite places to stay. The host is uber organized, responsive, and has literally thought around personalizing the stay at the “casita” - there wasn’t anything that was missing. Mirrors where you need them, appliances, step stools. It was amazing! I love how neat, clean, private, and such a great convenient location! I can’t wait to come back and stay here again!
