Tiera was wonderful to work with and always responded quickly. The bungalow is darling, in a great location and the beds are super comfy. We had a few issues but nothing that would keep us from staying there again. It was a great home base for our weekend in downtown Phoenix.
We stayed in this property for two weeks due to a special surgery and recovery in Phoenix. The king bed was super comfortable for the recovery. We were not able to do much sight seeing and greatly appreciated the ample space of the home and privacy of the outside areas. The kitchen had all the staple equipment we needed to cook at home most nights. We would stay here again if/when we come back for a fun trip. The location is close to everything in the city! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

We had a lot of issues with the door lock. Shower had to get a plumber while we were there. Dishwasher leaked. Coffee maker didn’t work well. The property person was very responsive to issues
