Such a beautiful home in lovely, quiet neighborhood. The house is older, with updates, but you can still feel the original charm. Kitchen had everything we needed, plus more. Amazing oven, clean fridge (no smells). Beds were comfortable and backyard was very welcoming with the little lights.

This is a great place to stay. It had everything we needed and we were glad to be "home" at the end of the day. Patrick was easy to reach and responded quickly. This home is in a quiet, attractive neighborhood; it is very clean and well-cared for. The house has been nicely updated and retains its original charm.

My husband and I and our son enjoyed staying at Old Southwest Gem. The owner, Patrick, was communicative and easy to reach when needed. Check-in was simple and the charming home was as advertised with a very nice bed/bath renovation in the basement and plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and had everything you could possibly need to cook any meal at home which we like to do sometimes. We were especially excited to discover a closet shelf of games and enjoyed a family game night while we were there. There were also lots of books and even exercise equipment (yoga mats, etc.). Staying here felt more like staying at a friend’s home! Patrick was not kidding when he said the neighborhood is very quiet…other than the garbage truck, I’m not sure we saw more than a handful of cars driving on the street over three days. It’s mostly residential nearby but I did walk to a coffee shop one afternoon when the weather was spectacular. All we were asked to do upon checkout was empty the garbage, start the dishwasher and lock up which was nice since we had to depart early in the morning. Would definitely rent again if the need arose!

Very comfortable, clean home

This home was perfect for my family’s visit to Reno. Beautiful home, spacious, great location, in a nice quiet neighborhood, not too far from downtown & dining locations. Beautiful backyard area for enjoying the amazing Reno weather. Home was very clean and had all the amenities needed. Communication with host was phenomenal. When we come back to Reno, we will surely book with them again.

Amazing house/Great location

We had an amazing stay!  Started off with great communication with the owner and clear & home simple instructions.The house was as described and looked like the pics; very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and it's location was perfect for going to the casinos, restaurants, and shopping.Highly reccomend this house!  We're already talking about booking it for another long weekend.

Reno in April

The house is beautiful and comfortable and has everything you need. The backyard needed attention being early in the season, so was not the oasis we were expecting from the pics. We got check in info only after arriving and requesting it (instead of getting it with the address). Those were the reasons for a 4 rating.

Response from VrboOwner on 28 Apr, 2025
Thank you Alena for your kind words about the home and for taking the time to leave feedback. We’re so glad you found the house comfortable and welcoming. Regarding the backyard, we sincerely apologize — Reno experienced an unusually late winter this year (including a late April freeze and snowfall in Tahoe), which delayed our spring landscaping maintenance. We're already addressing this now that weather conditions have improved. As for check-in, we appreciate you letting us know. Our standard check-in time is 4 PM, and we always try to accommodate early arrivals when possible, but it sounds like there was a communication gap that we’re working to improve. We truly appreciate your understanding and would love the opportunity to host you again under even better conditions!
