I recently stayed here for 5 nights and could not have been more pleased. The one bedroom apartment was very clean and well appointed with everything one would need. The owner lives on the property and is very nice and helpful if a problem should arise. If you are looking for an exceptionally clean and roomy place to stay, this is it.

Casita de Montañas is a very nice place to stay in Oro Valley, especially for a solo traveler or a couple. It is well equipped with everything you need in the kitchen and bathroom and has 2 large televisions, a comfortable queen-size bed, ample parking and a view of the Santa Catalina mountains. It is affordable, and best of all for me, immediately adjacent to the 136-mile Tucson Loop bicycle trail, aka the Chuck Huckelberry Loop, arguably the best bike trail in the US. It’s the whole reason I was in town. I had great weather and rode my bike every day.
