Casita Cerquita: one half block to the U of A

Casita Cerquita is a 1925 Craftsman 1BR duplex, and is more like a hotel suite compared to most vacation rentals. Located in the historic Feldman's neighborhood, we're a few steps away from the University of Arizona and a short distance to downtown. This is a pet friendly property too!

So the Casita is literally just steps away and minutes to the Eller Business School, Centennial Hall and the Center for Creative Photography.

There are many transportation options nearby too, including the streetcar, the city bus, the University’s Cat Tran service for getting around campus, and the new Tugo Bike Sharing program. All of which makes using a rental car optional for most guests. There’s even a convenience market just steps away that has basic staples, like milk, eggs and butter plus beverages, snacks and pastries.

It's also a short stroll to Main Gate Square, which is the shopping district for the University. There are both casual and high-end dining options available there, as well as numerous fun shops and boutiques.

4th Avenue and Downtown Tucson, two other popular nearby destinations, are quickly accessible by streetcar or public transportation, or even walking if you want to wander through the nearby historic neighborhoods.

Guests will have use of the Casita's front porch, the living space itself (living room, kitchen/dining, bedroom), and a private backyard throughout their stay.

Host Edward Cruz is at the property from time to time, so you may run into him with his dogs during your stay. And someone will always be available by phone or in person to help with any questions or needs you might have during your stay.

As an historic property, there are a couple of modern amenities that aren't available at the Casita... First, in the kitchen, there is no dishwasher. Also, there is no washer/dryer in the unit. A half mile away on Sixth Street near Park is Cool Cat Laundry that has self-service laundry. Campbell Coin Laundry at Campbell and Ft. Lowell has a drop off fold and wash service. In the closet you’ll find a laundry bag on wheels, and in the pantry there’s laundry detergent, non-chlorine bleach and dryer sheets. If during your stay, you have a need for fresh linens, please let us know.

There is an additional $25 cleaning fee for both pets and long-term stays. If you are bringing a pet, please notify us in advance.

The Casita is located close to a busy intersection so there may be some street noise, especially on weekends.
