As mentioned yesterday, we had another appointment with the National Indoor RV Center in Phoenix, Arizona to do some upgrades and repairs on our coach (I’ll probably post about some later). So after dropping our coach off there, we headed to an Airbnb apartment near downtown Phoenix for the week.

Here’s the listing for “The Retreat”.

Jenn’s review:

Jackie was a great host. She had good communication and was very attentive to anything we might have needed. This super cute historic studio apartment was the perfect oasis close to downtown. We could walk to dinner every day and never have to have the same thing twice. We really loved the courtyard and pool and enjoyed soaking in the Arizona sun.

It’s a small studio apartment, smaller than our coach, but cosy and cute:

The kitchen nook:

A desk:

Jenn brought her PS5, which we hooked up to the TV:

Most of the time, I sat on the rather uncomfortable couch to work:

Some interesting decorations, including a rifle lamp:

Exposed beam ceiling:

The floor was interesting, wood surrounded by tile (with a central rug):

A walk-in closet served as a place for Paladin’s litter box and food:

Like everything else, the bathroom was tiny, smaller than the bathroom in our coach:

The small shower:

With a rather low shower head, but good water pressure:

A nice ceiling in the shower:

The front (only) door blinds had a missing slat, leaving a gap; we mentioned it to the host, so hopefully will be repaired:

We covered that gap by hanging a towel over the door:

The view out the door:

Outside, a table and chairs:

A nice place for a lunch:

And more seating:

The apartments are arranged around a central pool area:

We enjoyed sitting by the pool:

The other side of the apartments:

Our side:

One of the nice features of this place was it was a couple of minutes walk to several restaurants, so we didn’t need to drive anywhere during our stay (which was just as well, as parking was rather tight).

It was a cute place to stay for a few days.
