Weโve stayed at this property before because it was so well appointed. It was very clean and the backyard was great for a dog. We will definitely stay here again.
We loved the cozy casita. The large screen TV and comfy sofas were perfect for relaxing in the evenings. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed.
Great location near botanical gardens and drives todesert parks and museums. Taylor was responsive, answered our questions. A comfortable, clean place. We enjoyed our stay there.

The Casita was comfortable and close to many restaurants. It looks exactly like the pictures. The host Taylor was very responsive, we had run out of coffee filters and he delivered some right away.I recommend this property if you are staying in Tucson.

Location was excellent, if a bit noisy at night with a busy street nearby. The appliances were all in good shape (we did not use the dishwasher so can't speak to that) and the living room and bedrooms comfortable. Our hosts were very responsive to the one temporary issue we had.

Perfect location and the property was clean well stocked and cool (both in temperature and looks). Hosts were quick and helpful. 100 percent would stay again.
My husband & I had a great 2 night stay. The home was clean & comfortable, with an amazing back patio. This was the 2nd property of Taylor & Yuko's that we've stayed at, and we can't wait to check out another one.
The house is perfectly central location, close to restaurants, downtown and University of Arizona. Very comfortable house and fantastic backyard. Highly recommend.

About the host
Hosted by Taylor Bard
Taylor - I'm originally from Oxford Pennsylvania though Arizona has been my home since 1997 and I absolutely love it! Cooking, gardening and reading are just a few of my favorite things to do in my spare time. I love to travel and am very friendly and personable and enjoy meeting new people from all over the United States and beyond. With that said, hosting is something I enjoy very much :)
Motto: " Live for today, Plan for tomorrow, and Learn from Yesterday"
Yuko - Born and raised in Japan until Junior High, went to High school and college in Tucson Az. Just started my apt in Fukuoka as rental , for I plan on returning to Arizona here in the near future, though Fukuoka will always be "home". Keeping my place there keeps me connected for when I return, Which will be 2-3 times annually. Very much a people person, and this Vacation Rental has been rather fun..:)
Together - We make a great team and We look forward to meeting more people via VRBO
Why they chose this property
We love the neighborhood, with our primary residence just up the street this was one we couldn't pass up!!!
With that said, We absolutely LOVE the neighborhood. You can't get any more centrally located to EVERYTHING to do in Tucson ! Close to U OF A, hiking golf, great restaurants, parks, botanical gardens, malls, downtown entertainment etc, while located in a well established quiet neighborhood that was built out in 1940's.
Please have a Look, they are all very nice properties. They are all - CLOSE TO EVERYTHING - shopping , restaurants, The U of A , and we have 7 other listings so we can acamodate almost any group. We also have tables and chairs for events,, and we go all out to make for the best experience with our events coordinator .
