Nice place would stay again.

Very well equipped kitchen was appreciated. The location is "central" in that downtown is to the west and the newer section of Tucson to the East. Lots of restaurant options. Overall it was quiet. But one morning one of the neighbors started his "fart car" and it literally shook the house. But it only happened once.

About the host

Hosted by Taylor Bard

Taylor - I'm originally from Oxford Pennsylvania though Arizona has been my home since 1997 and I absolutely love it! Cooking, gardening and reading are just a few of my favorite things to do in my spare time. I love to travel and am very friendly and personable and enjoy meeting new people from all over the United States and beyond. With that said, hosting is something I enjoy very much :)

Motto: " Live for today, Plan for tomorrow, and Learn from Yesterday"

Yuko - Born and raised in Japan until Junior High, went to High school and college in Tucson Az. Just started my apt as a Vacation Rental in JAPAN, for I plan on returning to Arizona here in the near future, though Fukuoka will always be "home". Keeping my place there keeps me connected for when I return, Which will be 2-3 times annually. Very much a people person, and this Vacation Rental is rather fun..:)

Together - We make a great team and We look forward to meeting more people via VRBO!

Why they chose this property

This is the adjacent property to the first home I ever owned, which has another casita behind it that we use as a vacation rental. So if this one isn't open, inquire about one of our other homes. We surely have one that will fit your needs !! Here's a link to all of them.

https://www.vrbo.com/tripboard/b33f031b-1bda-463f-b0d7-c3add8b17cbd

With that said, We absolutely LOVE the neighborhood. You can't get any more centrally located to EVERYTHING to do in Tucson ! Close to U OF A, hiking golf, great restaurants, parks, botanical gardens, malls, downtown entertainment etc, while located in a well established quiet neighborhood that was built out in 1940's.
