The Hive guest house is the perfect private getaway for solo adventurers, couples, and business travelers. It is a private and entirely independent unit located in the Garfield neighborhood of downtown Phoenix. We wanted to give it some personality, so the décor is unique and (dare we say?) bee-utiful! You'll also love the comfortable Tuft & Needle bed, well-supplied kitchen, seating options, and storage space (for longer stays). It's a great home base as you explore what Arizona has to offer!
There's ample street parking for your car in front of the main house, and then a short walk of approximately 100ft. (30 meters) to the guest house.
The first thing you'll notice about the guest house is its bright yellow door with an easy-to-use keyless entry. Of course, the great location in central Phoenix is hard to miss as well.
Once you open the door, there's a small step down, and you'll enter the kitchen area. With a full-size refrigerator, stove, and microwave, along with all of the utensils, pots, and pans to cook up some tasty meals, you'll always have the option to dine in or enjoy the many wonderful restaurants nearby. The kitchen also includes a coffee maker, electric tea kettle, toaster, and blender for small appliances. There's a counter with two stools that's perfect for a shared meal or a work space. With the super fast WiFi, you can also keep up with work demands or plan your sightseeing adventures.
The bathroom is supplied with all of the necessary amenities (soap, shampoo, conditioner, fluffy towels, a hairdryer, etc.).
The bedroom features a queen-sized bed with a Tuft & Needle mattress. There is shelving and a clothes rack with ample space for even long-term stays. With two additional chairs and large 55" smart TV, there are plenty of options for relaxing.
The beehive theme we've adopted means that you won't be staring at the same old generic paintings you'll find in hotel rooms. We've incorporated some honeycomb-inspired design throughout. The artwork, including some original pieces created by Mike or Jackie, is bee-themed as well. We hope our guest house will not only be a lovely place to stay, but also a place to just bee yourself!
Finally, all guests will have access to a washer and dryer located in a covered area outside.

Bee-sides this being darling Mike & Jackie make it extra special with the cleanliness, extra amenities- coffee & toiletries, and excellent communication. We certainly appreciated our time there!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Bee Hive! It was the perfect size for our needs, the bee-themed decor is awesome, and the location is great for exploring all that Phoenix has to offer. Mike and Jackie were also very welcoming and responsive before and during our stay. We would love to stay here again!
The guest house was very cute. It was perfect for my stay. The neighborhood was fairly close to the downtown area.

Very cool and fun bee theme. Friendly owners - and great communication.
Had a few issues with bed and shower. Owners were very responsive and fixed the bed. Cleanliness was lacking. There was pet hair all over. Mirror wasn’t clean.
The place was great, great location, well appointed but they were behind in maintenance of their shower. It was leaking both from the valve and the shower head and was hard to use the hand held. needed a commercial grade valve and a different set up for the shower head and hand held. It was a known problem for them and should have been dealt with before or on the day of our arrival so we didn't have to listen to dripping all night. A bitof a mis step for an otherwise great stay,.
Small space, bare necessities were provided (toilet paper, paper towels, bar soap, kuerig) The shampoo and conditioner were community use . I expected more but I think that’s on me. I was only on the property to sleep and hygiene. Located in old Phoenix, so I’m not sure about safety in that area but it didn’t look the best. Nothing happened and Uber easily found us. The people in the main house watched as we came and went, security cameras are installed on the property. Didn’t have any issues with the owners, they accommodated my 1 after booking, no problem. Welcome binder was helpful for checkout.
