Visiting gem show

This was a lovely, clean, comfortable property. Since I did not have a car, I took Uber to the shows, dinners, etc. It was only 6 minutes to the main show and 3 minutes to restaurants. The owner was lovely and inviting!

The property was very well appointed. The owner had thought of every wish a renter might have and provided for it: many types of toiletries in the bathroom; ironing board, iron, sewing kit; many hangers and large closet with hanging rails and cubbies; kitchenette also well supplied. The bed was very comfortable. The property is very close to downtown and it was easy to get around.

I had a very pleasant stay at this property in Tucson

I was in Tucson to photograph migratory birds. The unit was very clean and the neighborhood was quiet. This property is conveniently located to many of the area attractions including the Sonoran Desert museum and Saguaro National park.

Jill's casita was exactly what we needed! It was clean and very convenient for the activities we had in mind in Tucson. Jill was most helpful in directing us to restaurants and shopping destinations. She was so very gracious! We would recommend her and her casita to everyone!

Our charming little nest

We called this place our little nest. It is a charming retreat from the busy streets of Tucson. It is clean, tastefully decorated and wasn't lacking of anything that you might need for a short stay. The owner is very friendly and ready to answer any questions you might have. Located minutes from downtown Tucson, it is also within easy access to I10, which allows you to be in Oro Valley to the north or Green Valley to the South in about 1/2 hour. It is even within easy reach of National Saguaro Park East, and National Saguaro Park West is at your doorstep. Quite an amazing little place!

Thank you for choosing my home for your Tucson visit! I so enjoyed you both and hope to see you again here at "your little nest" next year. From your suggestion, I am including a table and chairs in the room for in-room dining. Happy trails to you!
