We truly enjoyed our stay with John and Chloie. John made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay in his guest house and Chloie added her special charm to make it complete! The location in Sam Hughes was perfect for everything we needed to do during our stay. We were within walking distance of the park, library, lots of restaurants and the grocery store. We couldn't have been more pleased!

Ours was a wonderful stay in John's casita in every respect. It is obvious he cares deeply about his guest's comfort, safety, and experience. He is detail-oriented and it shows in how he has outfitted the property. We lacked for nothing while there and would stay there again.

I couldn’t ask for a better host. John could not be more helpful if I needed anything at all and as a long time resident shared his knowledge of the area shops and restaurants. Very quiet and secure location close to anything you might want. I will return!

We have stayed here for the past 5 years.Always a wonderful experience.John could not be more helpful. And Chloe has become just like part of our family. Always coming in with a happy step and wagging tail. We would never go any where else when vacationing in Tucson. Perfect location, great pool and patio, great large shower, terrific house just the perfect size. You would be foolish to rent another vrbo in Tucson

The guesthouse was great, exactly what we were looking for. The owner was very good to us during our stay. The dog was very lovable. Very good experience.

I booked this property for approximately 3 months for work. Worst experience I ever had. The pillows/mattress pad were dirty and stained. I had to replace them. Not enough lighting in the bathroom, not enough hot water to complete a shower, bugs and roaches in the bathroom, shower "curtain" that was old and stained. The owner was always trying to enter under the guise of maintenance. He would pound on my door in the morning demanding that I let him in to wash the shower curtain. A couple of times after entering he left his beer cans inside the studio. He and his girlfriend would sit right in front of my door smoking cigarettes and drinking beer. At night, you could clearly see through the window blind into the studio apartment. I had to cover it with a sheet. After dark, there was inadequate lighting. You had to walk through a pitch black carport, then wave your arms to activate the security lights , then fumble with the key to unlock the gate to the backyard where the studio was located. The property owner was inappropriate, calling me some disgusting names. As I said, stay away. I'd hate for anyone else to experience this horror. I cut short my stay there.
