We had a wonderful week at Kirsten and Neven’s home in Tempe! Our family of four absolutely loved our stay. The location was perfect with a safe neighborhood. The house was exceptionally clean, beautifully remodeled, and had everything we needed. Kirsten and Neven were excellent hosts and went above and beyond to be accommodating throughout our stay. We felt right at home and truly enjoyed our time here. We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend it!

Great location close to ASU. Loved the yard and the house was well taken care of. The master bed was pretty firm, but that seems to be standard for most VRBOs lately. A pillow topper option would be great! The bed is also low, which didn't bother me, but may bother someone who is older or has mobility issues. Overall a great family friendly stay we enjoyed with our two dogs and kids.
