Serene Relaxing Home Away From Home
I grew up in Tucson and love the desert. Being able to sit out on this idyllic patio and watch birds and prairie dogs from the kitchen window was perfect. Brought my watercolors and sketchpad and with a casita well stocked and comfortable, I could take time just for me….a respite thoroughly enjoyed!

Large bathroom and walk in closet. Clean clean clean! We really liked the area as it was close to everything. The host and her daughter were great.

Comfortable
Certainly everything we needed was available here. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio, the fully stocked kitchen and appreciated having use of the laundry room. There are a few points for improvement that we hope will be taken as constructive criticism. With the check in information there was no key code to access the apartment and the wifi information was incorrect. A text to Liz after we arrived soon gained us access and the correct wifi info was in the desk folder. I would suggest redoing the folder pages which look shabby and confusing with all the cross outs. Also a scrub around the cabinet pulls would make the kitchen great. We had to ask two different times for a car to be moved in order to use a designated parking space. Our stay was very nice and hope these points will make your place the best!

Just what I needed
I was in town to help my son move out of the dorm at U of A. I was alone the first night, but the extra bed allowed him to stay with me the second night after his bedding was packed. The coffee provided was a life saver!! I enjoyed sitting outside watching the lizards and hummingbirds. Thank you so much Liz.

We needed a place to stay while attending our daughter’s graduation.
We wanted to spend a few extra days just to enjoy Tucson as we used to live here. I did a lot of walking, some hiking, and we enjoyed listening to some live bands in which our host was a bass player and vocalist. It was fun.

Comfortable Casita in Tucson
We loved our month at Liz’ property in Tucson. Everything was clean and well appointed with kitchen, shower and breakfast supplies we needed after flying into town. The location is perfect near the River Trail and stores and shops. There are many wonderful Mexican, French, and Middle Eastern restaurants in 8-12 minute walk. Liz was really helpful in giving local information and also provided guidebooks and maps that we used every day. We would return again and refer the casita to our family and friends for future stays. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The weather in November was perfect for us, like our summer days in the Pacific Northwest.

Lovely Studio Apt.!
This studio is located in a quiet neighborhood and is a very comfortable place to stay for 2-3 people. Liz provides just about anything you could need or want in a rental. I particularly appreciated the "info packet" she had there with a map of the city of Tucson, which really helped us find our way around. We had a little trouble with the key pad door lock and TV controls, but I'm sure that younger or more tech-savy people would have no problems. Overall, I would highly recommend this property!
