This upstairs loft is the original Tucson firehouse. It`s the perfect location to experience university life!

The unit is in a triplex and is located upstairs (requires going up and down steps) with a private entrance and balcony. There are two long-term rentals below.

NOTE: While this property does not have a washer and dryer in the unit, a laundromat is just a two-minute drive away, and past guests have found it quite convenient.

We are available and interact through the app.

Just one block from the U of A, this historic neighborhood has a mix of coffee houses, bars, restaurants, single-family homes, and apartments. There is a bar across the street, and Screwbean Brewing is just around the corner. (It`s a great place with in-house brewed beers, seltzer cocktails, espresso-based beverages, and food from local businesses!)

NOTE: There is a bar across the street that often has live music. It can be especially noisy on the weekends, so this might not be the best spot for you if you`re looking for a quiet, tranquil stay.

PETS: This is a pet-friendly home, and guests are welcome to bring their furry friends! There is a limit of two pets, and the associated fees are $58 for one pet and $90 for two pets. (Fees are charged per stay, not per night. For two pets, $58 is included in the initial reservation payment, and an additional fee request is sent after booking.) We ask that pets not be allowed on the furniture and that guests pick up and discard any droppings.

PACKAGES & MAIL: If you need to receive packages or mail during your stay, please DO NOT plan to have anything delivered to the property. Instead, please plan to have packages or mail delivered to an Amazon locker, FedEx location, etc.
- No smoking (If guests smoke inside, they will be responsible for all cleaning fees to remove the smoke and odor.)
- No parties
- No large gatherings
- No unapproved pets
