Unfortunately, we had a few hiccups and had to pivot for the first two nights. In addition to that, when we did take occupancy, the hot tub jets did not work. The host and VRBO made us whole, and for that I am truly grateful. As others have mentioned, the unit and furnishings are very dated. Cleanliness was not an issue. The location was great for us.

Time at Laura's

The unit was as advertised. While we were visiting family and did not spend a lot of time at the condo, it was comfortable for the meals we had there and sleeping. Kitchen was well equipped and everything was very clean. Pool was not heated, so a bit cold for March in Tucson, but the kids seemed to enjoy it anyway since the outside temperature was sunny and in the 80's.

Furniture is awful

Well, I gave a 3 star. The living room is a 1 Star. A futon bed for a couch that is uncomfortable. One chair we had to glue together. The other chair is so worn out - unbelievable. The dishwasher smelled of mold for 2 weeks. Kitchen drawers falling apart when you open them. This place needs a lot of work. 3 star is generous.

Good Price and Lots of Space

I rented this property for my three adult grandchildren and although I spent no time there, I also heard no complaints from them. The place was spacious; each got his or her own room and they were able to fix breakfast each morning before the day's adventure. This is not a modern and updated property. It is older and worn but also quite adequate for a family vacation. I definitely would recommend it to others.
