    Beautiful location in the Catalina foothills. Spacious one bedroom apartment. Decor was a little gaudy. Needs a normal couch and get rid of the heavy ornate drapes.

    We spent almost a month at Meg's place and were very satisfied! This mother-in-Law suite is very spacious, and well appointed. The description accurately explains that there are two levels with steps. The outdoor sitting area is beautiful, with terrific views. The place is quiet and away from traffic. It's also a little tricky to find - look for the driveway between the red mailbox and the end of the guardrail on the north side of River Road.Meg ways easy to get ahold of and always responsive when we had questions. Handy location! We would happily stay again!

    What an amazing hideaway! The photos cannot do justice to how beautiful the setting of this apartment is. The lovely upstairs bedroom has windows all around with beautiful views, especially of the sunrise. We appreciated how well-appointed it is, from dishes to hair dryer to laundry room with detergent provided. A few pointers for future guests: The stairs to the bedroom/ living area upstairs are very steep--not a problem except trips to the bathroom downstairs in the middle of the night for some of us! The jacuzzi doesn't seem to be usable; the water comes out orange from the faucet, and we couldn't figure out how to turn the jets on. But the very large bathroom has a nice shower and two sinks. I liked the bed but it was hard on my husband's back (sinks in the middle).

    The yard and views were just what I wanted. Quiet except for the traffic noise from the road down below. Close to everything in Tucson. We would definitely go back.

    Bathroom tub is out of order and pretty dirty. Shower was nice, rest of bathroom was nice. Great big windows with great views. Some trash found under bed, not the cleanest upstairs. Overall easy convenient nice location to stay for a short period. Kitchen stocked with supplies. Host very responsive when necessary!

    This property is affordable and charming. The location and the views are the best. This is not a brand new updated, modernized property so if you are expecting a dishwasher and fancy kitchen ware then you should go somewhere else. Wonderful open landscape and desert views and a comfortable place to stay with an outstanding outdoor space is what you will get. Thanks Meg, we had a memorable stay.

    I spent a lot of time on the patio drinking in the mountain and the view of Tucson. The location feels like you are far from the city, but really, everything you wanted was within a few minutes down the hill. Everything was clean and well stocked.

    The house was clean and convenient to stores and had a very nice outside sitting area with great views of the Catalinas. However the tap water was rusty and we didn't trust it to drink. It had a huge nice bathroom, but the shower water pressure was weak. They need better TV service, was antenna only, so we got a bunch of Mexican channels, the limited English channels had intermittent reception.

    Pros: Good central location, very clean, beautiful views, sufficient plates, mugs, utensils, coffee pot. They also accommodated our dog (crated at night, with us during the day) willingly.Cons: Tough turn to driveway (particularly in the dark), bad water, bad water pressure, bad bed, non functional kitchen (in part because of the water/water pressure). Do I want my money back? No. Would I stay there again? Probably not.
