Very nice place for a couple to stay. It’s a small area but very well equipped. Nice kitchen appliances for cooking meals that is an open floor plan to the family room which has a big tv. Only reason why I gave a 4 for family is due to the size but if you had a child with a pac n play it would work too. Owner responded immediately to a question I had after check in. Would definitely recommend.
We came for UofA Homecoming. This central location allowed us to easily visit family on the E side, W side, join others for dinner in the NE, and be close to the University activities. The property far exceeded expectations while traveling with pets.
Great little place. Had everything we needed. Well stocked with coffee, pans, towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash. Even has a bbq grill and patio furniture in a fenced yard. Very clean and just an all around great place.
We came to visit Saguaro National Park and were very impressed with how the casita was very much in the city but still easy to get to the park. We were only five minutes away from a Walmart and restaurants too. We didn’t get to sit outside in the back due to pouring rain, but everything inside was just as we had hoped!
Place was great for our little weekend getaway. Had our family over for a couple visits/dinners and it worked great. Bed was a bit too soft and sort of sank in. The air vent in the ceiling did fall in the middle of the night during our stay. They came right over and repaired it the next morning.owners were very responsive.

Garage size apartment
Location was good, cleanliness inside and out was average. Adequate space for 1-2 people as a base camp.
We cant say enough about this little gem of a casita. Its so quiet, peaceful, and private. Its just the right size for 2 people. The back yard was perfect for a BBQ at home. It is walking distance from a CVS and McDonalds and just far enough from main roads that you cant hear the traffic.
We loved it
The casita was just right for the two of us. We appreciated the backyard patio and enjoyed a peaceful breakfast out there. Taylor was great when we had a TV issue the last night of our stay. He came right over as soon as we called him. The only negative was the big step into the shower.
The casita was perfect for our needs. The accommodations were great for my elderly mother. The neighborhood was nice and safe. Wonderful little Casita with a wonderful host. I appreciated receiving the call from you regarding booking. Thanks again
I was in Tucson for a UofA event with my daughter. This was the perfect cottage for the weekend. It is well appointed and clean when I arrived. Taylor and Yuko are great hosts. Very responsive. I’d stay here again (we also booked the adjoining house for the family for graduation weekend).

Nice and Cozy but
It was clean and basically in good working order. Two items need addressing. The bed is most certainly not a queen size bed. My wife and I were uncomfortable with such a small bed. Also, directions for the television operation were nowhere to be found.
We visited Tucson to celebrate my granddaughter's 21st birthday and stayed at the Casita.
We had received information that the Casita had a queen size bed which turned out to be a full size bed, only about 80% as big as a queen. The full size mattress was also extremely soft and we tended to roll from the sides to the center which made sleeping the first night rather uncomfortable.
The bed being too small for us, we decided to use the sofa bed for one of us, only to find out there were no linens available as advertised. We had to request them and when they finally came, they were in the original plastic wrapping which gave a distinctly unpleasant odor to them, so we had to wash them at my granddaughter's apartment before using them for the third night.
We also received information that a washer and dryer were available; they weren’t.
The best thing about the stay was the rear patio. We wound up getting takeout from our granddaughter's favorite restaurants and having leisurely quiet dinners on the patio every night which we thoroughly enjoyed.
The Casita was very clean and convenient to the University area. We had no need to cook, but the kitchen was well equipped for meal preparation.
We would certainly consider returning if we ever visit Tucson again.
The Good: convenient location, square footage adequate for one or two people, well-equipped kitchen, nicely decorated, fenced backyard that worked well for dogs, access to washer/dryer. The Bad: Had no TV for entire two week stay. I messaged owner on Day 2 and he appeared within an hour with new TV. I told him I didn't think the actual TV was the problem and explained the messages I was getting on the screen. He said he had gotten previous complaints about the TV and wanted to replace it. Still didn't work. I messaged second time. Then he put me on a call with Direct TV and I was instructed to reset the receiver. For a couple of hours, I was able to get live programs but no streaming. Next day it wasn't working again. I reset the receiver two more times to no avail. I told the owner directly that, based on messages the TV was giving me, the problem was the Direct TV equipment. He said he would be over the next day but never came back. I let him know as I was leaving that the TV still didn't work. He messaged back that I just didn't know how to work it! I'm pretty tech savvy. In addition to no TV, I found it difficult to sit outside on the patio in the mornings because of the very strong stench of marijuana being smoked somewhere close by (smelled like skunk). Bottom line - I could not use two of the amenities I paid for.

I reached out months ahead of time, to ask if they had a crockpot in the unit. This was important to us, as we had special Thanksgiving plans. They said yes, so we didn't bring one. That was not true. It also said it slept 4, on queen beds. Also not true. I had to buy an air bed, and a can opener. But it was very cute. We loved it, just wish we could have been more prepared
