Clean, convenient location near downtown Phoenix with plenty of kitchen and bathroom amenities. Communications with the owner were great - no issues with check-in/out.
So relaxing that I never left the cottage 2 days of my stay. Atmosphere was perfect, clean & well supplied. Getting around in the traffic was not as bad as I feared.

Great & comfortable guest home!
My husband and I stayed in this property for about a week where we worked, visited with family, and explored. This location is really great. Walkable to Roosevelt row and easy access to downtown as well. The property itself is very nice. It was clean and had everything we needed. The owner was also very responsive and accommodating. The shared backyard is really magical at night with the hung string lights. We would definitely stay here again!

This guest house is a hidden gem right in the heart of downtown's Phoenix art district on historic Grand Ave! Be sure to check out Trans Am Cafe, Wayward, and Grand Ave Brewing. The guest house is in immaculate condition as photos do not do this place justice. Great location, great host, great communication, great accommodations. What else can you ask for. I highly recommend you stay here on your next visit to Phoenix.
Great location except Phoenix traffic has gotten terrible. Avoid I10, take the back roads.

From the owner: "Thanks for the feedback Henry, we are looking forward to the I-10 construction being completed in the spring. This will add multiple lanes in congested areas and should alleviate the traffic jams that have occurred. Please visit us anytime you are in town."

Great stay in Phoenix
We stayed here three nights in April 2023. We especially appreciated the effective and quiet air conditioning, the excellent coffee maker, and the fabulous location. We loved our morning coffee and evening wine out in the yard, and this neighbourhood is lovely to walk in. The bedroom has lots of storage for your stuff, and we especially appreciated how the bathroom had lots of places to put things down and tuck them away.
The host was helpful and accommodating, and the two dogs were both entertaining and unobtrusive. We would absolutely stay here again or recommend it to others.
