Yuma Az 1 bedroom 1 bath casita

My partner arrived in the middle of the night & Sandy accommodated her & allowed her to check in early. She left Tamales to welcome us! The place was spotless. You can smell fabuloso. It is a newly renovated property. Hot shower, 2 tvs, 2 AC units, & 2 functioning fans! When you call or text Sandy, she gets back to you right away. I got locked out one night & Sandy sent someone to let me in with a spare key in less than an hour. There is a lemon tree to get fresh lemons! My partners bicycle got multiple flats & Sandy offered her tools to help us fix the bike. Sandy is a wonderful host & you can tell she takes pride in her property. She is always trying to make sure her guests are as comfortable as possible. Even though we moved out about a month ago, we have still kept in touch with Sandy & she gives us her local recommendations. A gem of a human. You will not regret booking this place.

If you're going to stay in Yuma, I do not recommend this property. First and foremost, the location is not great. It is in a very rundown neighborhood with sketchy individuals. There are a few restaurants nearby that are good, but I would avoid living in Mesa Heights altogether. Many of the properties nearby have trash all throughout their yard. In my short stay, I also came across many weird people walking around the neighborhood, including a man yelling at me and my boyfriend. People (whom I still don't know who they were) would constantly come knocking on the door. I even had someone pounding on the door at 6AM. At the time, i was alone at the property and did not feel comfortable answering the door. I assumed these were people from the church nearby, but I still have no idea. I also had two instances where people tried to enter the apartment. Next, the landlord, Sandy, is very nice and friendly when approached, but she is not what I would consider a great landlord. She informed me that there would be landscaping done outside and she would let me know when the landscapers would be coming to the property, and she did let me know the first couple times... But after that she never told me and I would wake up to random strangers right outside the home. As a women who was alone most of the day, you can see how that would make me feel uneasy. Circling back to people trying to enter the home, both instances were people she knew (whom I assumed they didn't know people where occupying the residence), since she never told me to expect these people, I was very scared and afraid. And these people didn't just try to open the door once, it was multiple times at both doors. She did apologize and offer me a gift but it still made me feel uncomfortable. The second time someone attempted to get into the residence, she said she assumed it was the people who where moving into the duplex next door, but she never confirmed that with me... leaving me to feel paranoid. Once when we came home from visiting family, we came home to the front door being wide open. We were gone for about a week and we have no idea why the door was opened and for how long it was. Thankfully, nothing was stolen or missing. Lastly, we moved to Yuma because of my boyfriends job, and a contract got pulled at work, causing him to have to move jobsites. Therefore we had to leave Yuma. Sandy was very understanding and let us cancel our lease early. But a month after cancelling our lease, I asked her if we would be receiving any of our security deposit back, and she said she would work things out and let us know. Now, a month later, she still has not reached out and said anything about the security deposit. In conclusion, if you are staying in Yuma, I highly recommend renting another property than this one.
