The light rail is also nearby, offering an easy and affordable way to reach downtown Phoenix, ASU, and other metro attractions without a car.

Other Things to Note:
Pool heating is available for an additional fee of $75 per night or $400 per week. Requests and payment must be submitted at least 72 hours before arrival to ensure the pool is warm and ready at check-in.

All guests are required to sign a pool use and safety waiver prior to check-in.

Please note that while portions of this home have been updated, it remains an older property and may have minor quirks. If anything arises during your stay, we encourage you to reach out for assistance right away so we can address it promptly.

For safety, a security camera is installed on the east side of the home to monitor the yard access gate only. No interior cameras or recording devices are present. A Minut noise monitoring system may also be in use, which measures decibel levels but does not record audio or conversations. This ensures neighborhood peace while maintaining guest privacy.

Pets are not typically permitted. Exceptions may be considered upon request. If approved—or if a pet is found without authorization—a $175 non-refundable cleaning fee will be applied.

Unauthorized late check-outs will result in a $75 rescheduling fee charged by housekeeping. Please coordinate in advance if you need extra time.

A Pack-N-Play and highchair are available upon request.

Comfortable house that makes you forget it's not yours!

Much longer and urgent of a stay than in the past. I was up with my "patient" early 2-3 a.m. I noticed something didn't look right and took pictures so I could be able to explain better i the morning. Attached with a little e-mail. No less than 4 hours later, the host called me and told me a professional was scheduled but wanted to make sure beforehand that the time would work for us. A very pleasant woman arrived and she got right to business. She assured me that we would be fine to stay there and the noise I heard was nothing to worry about. The host called me back after Julie (the Professional) debriefed her and wanted to make sure I was comfortable staying or would I prefer to move to another location. She offered to pay the difference towards a new place. Which is what I would have done If the preventative and professionalism the host expedited. The only call over the years was for an empty propane tank. WOW I am still impressed how fast our situation turned around. The house has an extremely comfortable living area with two couches and a huge ottoman for 6 or 7 people to watch TV. Off of the living room is a workable kitchen, with spice rack, both plastic and ceramic plates for al fresco dining, large high top table and great lighting for cooking or ambiance. Platters, George Foreman (2), Kuerig with tea, coffee and hot chocolate. The pool is large and 9' deep. Lots of sun or covered porch. Exceptional Hospitality from the hosts. Dining options nearby.

Nice place!

Very nice home. Well equipped and clean. There is some noise from the airplanes overhead and the busy street a block away. But for the price, it is a great place to stay!
