Oct 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Desert Bungalow was great! It was just as pictured online which is always a relief! The location was great- less than a 15 minute walk to downtown which I loved. We would definitely stay there again! ##### Deanna G. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Naomi R. Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Loved the space, from the decor to the location it was all amazing. I’m not sure if it was just Tucson in general, but the service with my provider ATT was very spotty in the area. I have to emphasize that it’s best practice anywhere to have a way to access check in instructions offline. ##### Naomi R. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025
