This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on all reviews.

Response from the owner Thank you for the 4 star rating! Because our casitas are so very popular during our peak season we try to allow for maintenance, deep cleaning and upgrades a few times a year in the off season. Necessary repair, general cleaning are done immediately after a guest moves out, of course unless something calls for more, or is brought to our attention. It is true if staying at our casitas which sets up on the mountain with the top house being the 3rd highest house in Phoenix, you do have to go to the bottom of the mountain to walk the neighborhood. However there is a trail on the mountain,which is accessible from each casita, but it does means you will have to adventure up and down the mountain. The views I believe are great, not only looking over streets and freeways, housing developments but mountain views everywhere possible. At night I really like to the city light view with all the houses lite up. Because our location is in the city, in a neighborhood you are going to get views of everything within a city! But it does allow quick access to golf, shopping, stores etc. and is still private.

Response from the owner So glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for the review and the 4 star rating! The desert nights are great in Phoenix, no humidity which allows for comfortable evening. Getting out of a hot tub or pools you can even feel cold! Please come back and bring your friend, as we now have added an additional bathroom, so both bedrooms can be called "masters". We even made it handicap accessible! With the completion of The Parlor, which is like a guest house directly below The Ranchero you can have 6 to 8 people staying together. The Parlor is also available as a stand alone studio rental. Hope to see you again ................soon! Fran
