This upstairs loft is the original Tucson firehouse. It's the perfect location to experience university life!

The unit is in a triplex and is located upstairs (requires going up and down steps) with a private entrance and balcony. There are two long-term rentals below.

NOTE: While this property does not have a washer and dryer in the unit, a laundromat is just a two-minute drive away, and past guests have found it quite convenient.

We are available and interact through the app.

Just one block from the U of A, this historic neighborhood has a mix of coffee houses, bars, restaurants, single-family homes, and apartments. There is a bar across the street, and Screwbean Brewing is just around the corner. (It's a great place with in-house brewed beers, seltzer cocktails, espresso-based beverages, and food from local businesses!)

NOTE: There is a bar across the street that often has live music. It can be especially noisy on the weekends, so this might not be the best spot for you if you're looking for a quiet, tranquil stay.

PETS: This is a pet-friendly home, and guests are welcome to bring their furry friends! There is a limit of two pets, and the associated fees are $58 for one pet and $90 for two pets. (Fees are charged per stay, not per night. For two pets, $58 is included in the initial reservation payment, and an additional fee request is sent after booking.) We ask that pets not be allowed on the furniture and that guests pick up and discard any droppings.

PACKAGES & MAIL: If you need to receive packages or mail during your stay, please DO NOT plan to have anything delivered to the property. Instead, please plan to have packages or mail delivered to an Amazon locker, FedEx location, etc.
- No smoking (If guests smoke inside, they will be responsible for all cleaning fees to remove the smoke and odor.)
- No parties
- No large gatherings
- No unapproved pets

○ Local guests, please contact me prior to booking

Convenient Location, Responsive Property Manager

Great stay overall! The property manager was very responsive when we had some plumbing issues with the shower and sink, everything was fixed by the next day, and they checked in to make sure we were comfortable. The location is convenient for a quick stay near the University. We appreciated the host’s willingness to work with us on a fair resolution, which made for a positive experience.

Clean, Cute and Great Location!

Had a wonderful stay at this charming and spotless loft apartment! The location was perfect—close to campus and in a great neighborhood. Communication with the owner was excellent, and they were incredibly responsive to any questions. Had a minor issue with hot water, but it was resolved quickly and efficiently. Overall, a fantastic experience, and would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

I ended up not staying here, but couldn’t get a refund of any kind. Owner permits not even partial refunds 13 before the stay begins even if family emergencies arise.
