Tucson UofA property

The apartment was clean and super close to where I was going at the UofA for a training. You have to park on the street which might be a problem during the regular school year. However, it is permitted so maybe not. I just parked my car out front and walked to the school everyday. This place would also be convenient for football games. Bring your own coffee pods and coffee fixings. It does have a full kitchen, but I mostly ate out.

Good location

It was extremely confusing when we arrived. Another man arrived just before us. Eddie, a handyman, we assume, took time from what he was doing to help us all. He deserves a bonus. Once we got into our space there was no parking pass, Eddie gave us his. After that all went well. The location was great.
