    This is one of the best rentals we have stayed at. It was very clean, pretty much spotless! It was a modern house and very spacious. This house provided us the space we needed and was in a calmer, nice part of town which my parents liked. The house is located in a centrally located area; downtown and shopping areas weren’t too far away. There are some great restaurants nearby and a gas station within walking distance. The house offered the basic bathroom and kitchen necessities that you need for your stay. The owner is super fast and responsive with communication and we had no problems. There were a lot of “post-it notes around the house, which I found very helpful. Since you are a visitor in a stranger's house the “notes” provided helpful tips/rules. There was a 2 sided page with some basic welcome information and lots of brochures of nearby attractions which was super helpful. Overall, we had a great stay and I would highly recommend this vrbo!The only 2 small cons were 1) the house is located near a somewhat busy road and an airport. You can hear cars zooming by all hours of the night plus planes departing. If you are a light sleeper bring headphones. 2) You are not allowed to open the window blinds. I am assuming for AC efficiency. We felt closed in and dark. We like to see the sun/outside; however, there are lots of outdoor patio spaces. These are just small personal preferences, however, it really was a great stay!

    We were there for a graduation. The house was nice. However the bed and in the master bedroom was a little hard. Other than that it was great.

    Casa de las Tortugas is located in Central El Paso, situated on a beautiful tree-lined boulevard adjacent to the exclusive Pennsylvania Circle area. Easy access to the airport and freeway, you are minutes from any of the best restaurants and attractions El Paso has to offer. The house itself is a renovated 1940’s bungalow with a huge kitchen, Mater bedroom and Mater bath. Six adults stayed comfortably as the house is well-appointed with everything you could possibly need. Jorge was east to book with and was in constant communication before and after the stay. You will not find a more comfortable, homey stay than this! We all loved it!

    Casa de tortugas is a beautiful, clean house to stay in. It is located in a great neighborhood, the layout was perfect and had everything we needed for our stay. Our visit to El Paso was due to a medical emergency, and we were uncertain about our length of stay, but Jorge Lopez proved to be an exceptionally understanding and amazing host. I highly recommend this home for your next stay.

    This was exactly what we needed. The host was welcoming and we were able to reach out to him with a question and he responded within 5 minutes. When we return to El Paso we will stay here again.

    We appreciated the hosts stocking the house with thoughtful things like a variety of sugars for coffee, cold water bottles in the fridge, etc. One suggestion would be to add extra blankets/pillows/towels in closets. I would stay here again.

    The house was perfect for our group of over 65, because of our age we could have used a rail on the front Steps, and in the showers. The beds are a bit high if you have a height issue, most of us are short. The linens are nice and the towels are exceptional, we all want to purchase the same towels for ourselves. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need and then some. Casa de Las Tortugas left us many complimentary gifts that were not only a surprise and but very welcomed. The traffic is quite heavy on the side street but it bothered no one in our group. Parking is also an issue at the house if you have more that two cars but there is parking on the street. The neighborhood is nice, we walked and enjoyed the older homes and the beautiful weather. Casa de Las Tortugas is tastefully decorated and full equipped. I would recommend Casa De Las Tortugas to anyone needed a home in central El Paso. Jorge was great to work with as well. Thank you Jorge for making feel so welcome, all in all we had a fabulous time, your home is lovely.
