Pet-friendly mid-century pool and hot tub home: Old Town Scottsdale

This property served the needs of our trip. The host was very communicative and added some nice touches. They wouldn’t allow us to fill the tub which made bathing our 3 and 5 year old challenging. The host did bring by a portable bathtub to help accommodate but it was really cumbersome to fill up and dump out so we just used the shower as best we could. There are some nice updates and also some areas that were a little rough around the edges but overall nice. The mattress in the primary bedroom was comfortable and the neighborhood is very quiet with quick access to everything. Many of the dishes were dirty in the cabinets when we arrived and there weren’t a lot of kid friendly dishes as promised. The pool was welcomed in the AZ heat but worth knowing that the shallow end is very small so not ideal for young kids. Our boys loved the ping pong table and having access to streaming services was great. The grill and other areas outside were covered in spiderwebs. Someone came by to service the pool and hot tub both of which were very clean. It felt like they had a lot of prior guests that were very inconsiderate and caused problems, so a lot of rules were communicated to compensate. I was so nervous to upset the neighbors or that my kids were too loud and would trigger the noise sensors. Luckily we were mostly out and about exploring Scottsdale that we weren’t in the space too often. Overall a good home base for our trip.

Nice pool and good location.

Very comfortable home. The host was easy to communicate with. Great location in Scottsdale.

Everything was a pictured: great place to chill, or have a small gathering with a variety of ways to entertain. Excellent location, in my opinion.

Gabriel was an excellent host. The house was homey and comfortable, and the location was great. Will rent again when visiting Scottsdale.

Great communication with the host. The beds are comfortable and the hot tub was lovely. Since the pool is not heated we treated it as a cold plunge during our stay.

Great home that was perfect for our family of 5. The hosts were friendly and responsive. Close to Old Town Scottsdale and central to many activities in the area. The home was cozy and had everything we needed. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and since it was winter a few of us took a cold plunge in the pool. Everything was clean and would stay here again.

Gabriel was very quick to respond to a slight problem we had upon arrival - he did what he could to resolve it right then. He was very easy to communicate with! A great host!

Check in was easy. The house is exactly like in the pictures and the kitchen is very well stocked.

Overall, we had a nice time at Gabriel's place. The location was great - super easy to get to the local spots we wanted to visit and only around 15 mins from the airport. Check-in was a breeze (thanks for keeping the lights on Gabriel!). The beds were comfortable and the A/C kept the place cool. We liked the layout and size of the place - perfect for our small family. My teen loved tanning by the small pool in the bright sun and we enjoyed a few cool dips in the unheated pool.
