Great location

Super cute house in great location with plenty of amenities close by. Plenty of room and super nice host. We didn’t pay attention to staying where there was a non heated pool which was way to cold to use but other than that no concerns.

Papago Weekend

House is an older house but well kept and comfortable. Property was as described, host communicated well and check in/out was easy. Property is close to amenities but far enough away so you don’t have to deal with the noise and traffic.

Great bargain house

We had a group of friends that came down for a weekend trip. Location was convenient and near the airport. Pool was nice and clean!! Only complaints would be the spare mattress needs to be replaced and the legs on the corn hole board was broken.

We love our vacation home in Tempe because it's cute, cozy and has a pool! We can relax by the pool, play games, and then go out. Also, the location is great!
