Perfect for Small Groups
We (four of us) were in town for a concert at Chase Field and found Jason’s rental to be a perfect base for the weekend. This was my first time renting something other than a “private home” (meaning, the only dwelling on the property), but we definitely felt the privacy between the rental and the owner’s residence just steps away. I’ve read other reviews here and find it a little silly that so many renters were shocked that this was a back house (that’s what a casita is!). But I will agree that I was expecting a front door and not a slider as the main entry, so I felt dumb when I realized THAT’S the way to get in! :) The unit was adorable, clean and very accommodating, and it had everything we needed to feel comfortable. Jason was very responsive, even when I texted him for the WiFi at 10pm when we checked in (again, sorry for the late text, but perhaps you might consider including the password in your check-in information?) The neighborhood was clean and felt very safe, as did the casita. Very close to downtown, as advertised, which was exactly what I was looking for. On top of that, the price was incredibly reasonable for a random weekend in November. But, I would recommend Jason’s casita conditionally with the following feedback from our party: Our biggest qualm with the rental was the walkway and lighting along it, which Jason assured me is in the process of being remedied. To enter, you must walk along the edge of a single driveway with a very narrow path to the casita,

In accurate listing
It was not disclosed at the time of booking that there would be a pet fee. $110 for a cleaning fee was unfounded as there were only two bath towels and one roll of toilet paper for a booking for four adults and a long black hair was in the freezer and sour liquid in the cocktail shaker cup. No ice or ice trays were provided. Very sparse coffee, creamer and small amount of paper towels for a party of four adults. Instructions were not clear that the property was behind main house. Not disclosed until check-in day that there was only parking on the street. Very narrow passage to walk past three cars in driveway. It took 15 minutes of running the kitchen faucet to get hot water. Stated there was Wi-Fi but no code was provided. Very disappointed to have paid more than $300 for one night.

Modern and Convenient Stay
The property is a converted unit on the owner’s property. It’s accurately described, very clean, and well stocked. There is a Keurig coffee machine but no pods were made available. The bed is on the firmer side but we prefer it like that. I had to reach out to the owner’s for check in information but they were very responsive. The is was a nice stay in a nice location.

Modern HiStory
We had the best stay! The 3 of us were looking for a place near downtown for a show I was vending at the convention center w/ a few things we thought might be tough to meet all our needs. We needed a secure space that beyond our sleeping accommodations would have space where I could create additional product a still have room for meals & relaxation after the show. We also needed parking for a rental cargo van and a rental car. When I say Jason's Casita more than met our every need I do not exaggerate. The site was perfectly located only a few miles from our destination in an adorable historic quarter of downtown Phoenix w/well maintained homes & lawns which made us feel safe w/the ample street parking the area provided. The casita sits gated behind the main house at the back of a long driveway that is utilized by the home owners obscuring it from street view. The backyard is divided generously between the house & the casita by a tall wooden fence which added to our privacy. It's interior modern, simple, super clean, and beautifully appointed w/midcentury modern furnishings and some retro pop culture details throughout that we so enjoyed. The beds cozy, a cute updated bathroom, and the kitchen well stocked w/most anything you would need for making & serving your own meals. All of that was wonderful, but our hosts really made our time special providing great communication, comfort, lovely interactions, & a neighborhood history lesson during our stay with them.

Renter beware, this place is deceiving!!!
I purchased this VRBO with the intentions on being close to downtown As it said, in the description. he sent me a picture of the house and the fence where the lockbox was as if we would be staying in the house we thought we rented. When we get there, it’s very late at night, there is no private parking. You will be parking on the street and you will be staying in a mother-in-law suite in his backyard. This was so deceiving everything in the description said nothing about a mother-in-law suite or a side house, etc. there is no front door to protect your belongings. There is a SLIDING PATIO DOOR ONLY. when we first got there, we reached out to him and told him hey, it looks like someone is staying in the house only to find out that he lives in the main home. He was very reluctant to reach out, and was very vague in his responses being an African-American male it’s not best to be snooping around anyone’s gate at 1100 o’clock trying to figure out how a side fence opens. Once we realize that we were staying in his backyard, we made our way to the patio door that would be protecting all of our belongings for the next three days. There was no Wi-Fi Wi-Fi was coming from the main house and was so poor I had no connection for my work computer. In addition to paying three dollars for a mini bottled water in the fridge. This place was not as advertised. Save yourself the trouble. If you think you’re staying close to downtown Phoenix this is not the place for you. SCAM SCAM, SCAM!!!

Lovely 2 bedroom Casita
This VRBO is located in a Historic area in Phoenix. The neighborhood is quiet, walkable, easy to park, safe, and convenient to downtown, Chase Field, shops, restaurants, etc. It has two large bedrooms, the beds are very comfortable, and the amenities meet our needs. Hosts are easy to work with and available if needed. Would book this again!

Very clean property. Owner respnded quickly
Beds comfortable. Shower was great. Everything very clean and it was very cozy. Having the wifi password available would be good so didnt need to bother owner. Also I was confused the property was behind the main house. More lighting would be good since we came in at night. The neighborhood felt safe and was quiet. Could hear the highway.

Beautiful little spot
I’m still amazed at how private this place felt despite being on the homeowner’s property! Beautiful living room and bedrooms. The stay went by way too fast. We came for a birthday and anniversary staycation in Phoenix with our dog and had a couple friends over for dinner one of the nights. Grateful this place was available and hope to be back again soon. The only things that weren’t communicated - it should be in the security description that there is a camera by the entrance to the rental space (glad it was, but hadn’t seen it listed in the ad), and clarified whether the camera on top of the owner’s house facing their backyard has the yard/entrance of the rental space in view. It did take away a bit of the feeling of seclusion, wondering if we were being watched. 10/10 recommend, and hope we stay again!!
