This is a beautiful location. Easy to find the appeal. The pictures of this property doesn't do it justice. A lot bigger than it appears. Fully exceeded my expectations. Had a wonderful time. Wish l wasn't there for work so I could enjoy it more. Very quiet and peaceful. Rooms were clean and spacious. The amenities provided were very much appreciated. Definitely will recommend and or look forward to inquiring about this property again.

Great location with nice views

This condo is an end unit in a large, gated complex. It has a private feel since it is surrounded by desert with mountain views. There are great restaurants nearby and the area was perfect for us. The hosts were very responsive to our needs and we were satisfied with our stay. The property could use a bit of updating but for the price we were happy.

thank you for taking the time to review our property. We take very special care to thoroughly clean the property (as you praised the cleanliness in your review). With that being said, it is adjacent to the desert and insects can get in if one is not mindful to close doors and windows at all times. We also have very speedy response times (which you also mentioned) when things need to get done or replaced. You just have to ask and we get it done usually in less than 15 minutes! Thank you for staying with us, hope to see you again! :)

First-floor unit in a gated complex at Kolb and Snyder, less than two miles from Ventana and Sabino Canyon. The patio overlooks Mt Lemmon. Large master with tv and en-suite, plus two additional bedrooms and another bathroom. Full-size washer/dryer. Supermarket with Starbucks is less than a mile away. Twenty minute drive to campus.

There was no place to put away our clothes so we lived out of our suitcases for a week. No dressers. Otherwise not too bad.

Hi Martha. We have big walk in closets (and shelves) for you to hang and put away all your clothes. This is definitely an upgrade from dressers as it greatly reduces wrinkles on the clothes.

Best place to affordably stay in Tucson

The place had great views and fantastic hosts. The largest complaint would be the person living in the condo above, there was no quiet during our stay. I have no clue what he was doing up there, but if sleeping in an active construction zone is your thing, I would highly recommend this place. Overall an apartment-style condo that was functional and could use a handyman's attention. For the price, I do not think you could find a better place to stay in Tucson. Again the hosts were amazing and would give 10 stars if allowed, definitely the best part of the entire experience.

Hi Corey, thank you for your kind words regarding our service. We appreciate it! Regarding the neighbor, you are correct, it was a construction site, he was remodeling! It was my understanding that they did work on his apartment for 2 days and never exceeded 5pm. All this work has finished and we are back to quiet :) I wish you would have informed our team about the disturbance, we would have taken care of it right away. We are EXTREMELY proactive with any issues that arise. Again, thanks for staying with us, we hope to see you again!

Our family stayed here for 4 nights. The beds were comfortable. The condo was clean and has a nice view of the desert. Interior is a little outdated. The complex is overall pretty quiet but the neighbor above was very loud and often sounded like he was coming through the ceiling. Dining table is small. Not much living space for more than 4 people. We experienced a small plumbing problem but the owner was responsive. Not a terrible stay but I don’t think I would consider it luxury.

The property itself is very nice. For the check in I didn´t get a keycode for the gate (gated community). No one answered a telephone call so I had to climb over the fence to manage all by myself. Another question I texted was not answered. And: the price in the ad with USD 49 ended up as USD 127,50 per night! Bad!

Not as advertised

There was no barbecue though it is advertised as having one. The upstairs neighbor was noisy at times and his dog barked quite a bit. There is no light in the microwave over the stove. The place could use a thorough cleaning. Entryways to bedroom carpets have the tack boards exposed. Be careful if your walking barefoot. We would not stay here again and would not recommend it.

The issues with the neighbor (and his dog) have been resolved. We do have a barbecue but it's outside by the pool. The association has prohibited all other types of grills due to safety reasons. Microwave light has been fixed. We have fixed the tack boards. Thank you for all the suggestions Joe!

Must enjoy yappy biting dog overhead and creaky ceiling

We were welcomed by a yappy little dog "Frosty" and the smell of smoke. An instant OMG moment occurred as we looked at each other. After 15 minutes it shutup then struck up its vocal chords a half dozen times further on. Still yipping at 21:55, I prepared a text message to send to the owner, but I didn't, as I gathered the owner looked at the clock or muzzled "Frosty" at 22:00. During our first hour inside and seated at the dining table, the dining light shook significantly as the dog owner walked across the room. As we went to sleep, especially challenging for light sleepers, the ceiling noise was unbearable in the Master bedroom. Needless to say, it was not restful either nights, as you could hear him get up during the night also. Fortunately our time spent in the ground floor unit was for wind-down and wake-up timeframes only. The main bathroom shower drain would fill up and did not drain for the duration of a shower, so my son used our bathroom facility. Both could certainly use some remodelling and plumbing attention. As we moved out before our due departure time, the upstairs dog owner had "Frosty" out on the sidewalk from the parking area. As I was walking to our vehicle with a full load "Frosty" bites me on my right leg! It's teeth stuck in my pant after it was refused penetrating my skin by twisting my toe off my heal, attempting to flick it off of me. No where in the listing is there any mention of these issues.

Usually when guests have an issue, they reach out and we fix them right away (we take great pride in this). We really wish you would have reached out so we could have done the same for you. It is very unfair for you to stay silent from the duration of your stay and bash us as soon as you check out. They were all easy fixes we wish you would have given us a chance to address. Contacting us is easy, our phone numbers are on the property and on the site. The issues with the dog have been fixed. We have addressed this with the neighbor. The main bathroom shower drain has been fixed.
