University of Arizona move
This house was perfect for our trip to Tucson. Impeccably clean and artfully decorated- this adorable 1.5 bedroom home was conveniently located 2 blocks from University of Arizona. Erika provided a wonderful welcome gift basket for us and information about the local eateries, sights etc. The personal touches throughout the house made our journey to drop our oldest off at college an easy and enjoyable experience. We will definitely be staying here again when we come to visit our son. I highly recommend this gem of a home!

We loved this place- Everything was so welcoming and communication was excellent. The kitchen was well outfitted with everything we might need to make our meals while there to see family members living in the neighborhood. We walked to restaurants and groceries and gas were very conveniently close. Loved the garden and nice mornings outside on the porch. Plan to return when going to Tucson next.

Our experience could not have been better! We love Tucson and the Sam Hughes neighborhood was perfect for us! The neighborhood is also extremely walkable. Erica thought of everything to make our visit fun and comfortable. She was even ready to bring over her own crockpot when I asked if there was one on the premises! The house is beautifully decorated and there are ample tables and chairs for outdoor entertaining. We hated to leave!

Excellent stay near the University
My wife and I had a very nice stay at this house. It is a short walk to the university. The kitchen is very well equipped. I'll note that the front of the house is located on a fairly major road but it was surprisingly quiet at night and since we spent our evenings in the backyard (which is very nice) we didn't hear any traffic at all. I'd love to return!
