About this property

Walk to Light Rail! Private Casita

Minutes away from the baseball and basketball stadiums; the museum district; cultural attractions; St. Joseph's Hospital and Barrow Neurological Institute. A short 1/2 block walk to the Encanto/Central Avenue light rail station allows for easy access from the airport. The perfect location for parents to visit college students at Grand Canyon University and Arizona State University. The casita is quiet and on a pretty palm-tree-lined street with Tudors, Bungalows, and Spanish Colonials.
For a video walk-through type 58 Willo Casita into YouTube.
Please note:
(-) Early check-in when available starting at 12 noon - 2pm for $35.
(-) The guest house is a separate entity located behind the main house.
(-) There are security recording devices on the property.
(-) There is a pool on the property used by the owners and children during the summer months. We always try to keep the sound down.

(-) We have a very friendly, one-year-old mini Goldendoodle named Kramer. He loves belly scratches.

Perfect!

We were in town for a concert and were clueless of where a good location to stay would be. This property was close to the airport, light rail, and concert! This would be a great place in a cute little area on a dead end road, to stay for a game. Hosts were easy to contact and very helpful with questions we had about getting around downtown. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing first experience!

This was an amazing stay.The location was a great area and close to where we were hanging out for the weekend. This was a spur of the moment travel decision and finding a location that was close to downtown at an extremely reasonable price. If there a future trips to Phoenix I hope we can be lucky again. This place was a gem!
