Perfect property for our family of six. Comfortable, clean and affordable. The pool was greatly used and it made for a perfect place to call home while we had a volleyball tournament. Short drives to food, Walmart, stores, casino. If we are ever back in Arizona would rent this property again!

Hi Robert, thank you for the 5-star review! We're glad Charming Retro Gem was a comfortable, clean, and affordable home base for your family of six, and that the pool was enjoyed during the volleyball tournament. It's great that the nearby dining, Walmart, and casino were convenient. We appreciate you staying with us and would welcome you back on a future visit to Arizona. - Casago team

Place is as described and it is cute. Nice pool, comfortable beds, nice bathrooms. It’s all we needed for a quick trip to visit my daughter. Convenient location to get places. I am hopeful that they switch out the key pad entry as it is quite antiquated and frustrating unless you know exactly how to use that system. Make sure they give you detailed instructions (how to push in and turn the dial, etc) and that they give you the right code to get in. Otherwise great place.

Hi Mark, Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we regret that you feel this way about your stay. For transparency, your reservation was flagged by the booking platform as a potential high-risk booking, and as part of the standard verification process we reached out to confirm the purpose of your stay and to reiterate that the property has a strict no-party and no-event policy. This is in place to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all guests and neighbors. The booking was ultimately cancelled by the booking platform due to non-compliance with their review and verification requirements. While we did receive a response from you, the cancellation had already been processed by the platform at that time. We’re sorry for any frustration this situation may have caused. Our goal is always to ensure clear communication and a smooth experience for all guests, and we appreciate your understanding. Thank you again for your feedback.

Well cleaned property. Fast response from the management company... accurate photos. Extra things like a super clean grill, laundry pods, extra roll of paper towels were nice to find. Pool/backyard and billiards table both in good shape. Overall a good value.
