Power Ranch Stay
We had a six week stay here while we house hunted. Overall, given the Phoenix rental market, the price of this rental, and that it is dog friendly, it is an acceptable rental for an extended stay. We enjoyed the Power Ranch neighborhood with its walking paths. The house is roomy, adequately furnished, and the WiFi worked well. The pool looked very clean although we did not use it as this was a winter stay. The owner lives nearby and he checks on the pool and retrieves the mail weekly. I spoke with him on one occasion and he was pleasant and asked if things were okay. I replied that we appreciated finding a dog friendly rental. Based on his replies to other reviewers who mentioned maintenance or cleaning issues, I felt it was best to not mention these at the time. The property could use maintenance and cleaning. As an example, the screen slider to the pool side patio wouldn’t budge but then I realized the screen had a huge hole in it anyway. The Master bath shower faucet gives you a choice of extremely hot or cool. The faucet needs replaced. The house has three TVs but they are very old - no smart TVs here. At some point the entire inside was spray painted without any regard for cupboards, switches and carpeting so there are paint splatters everywhere which is a bit odd. The house gets a light cleaning between guests but it’s been awhile since corners have been cleaned. We found candy wrappers, a snack package and a water bottle in the living room sofa, a flip flop under the sofa, and a few tags and a receipt on an upstairs floor. Insides of cupboards and drawers are not cleaned between guests, but the refrigerator and baths appeared clean. The main floor has nice tile but it was very gritty. The only thing I saw at the property to use was an old mop so I purchased a swiffer to use. The first passes over the floor came up filthy. Neither of the two vacuums at the property worked (one did turn on but didn’t pull anything up) so I bought a vacuum to use. Every carpeted room filled the canister. Linens are very old but appeared clean and there were adequate linens to allow for changing and washing during the stay. Expect to do some cleaning but everything important in the house works and, overall, it was acceptable for an extended stay.
