• 3/5

  The room was clean, but the odor was unbearable. The blanket was dirty and dingy. The only time we spent in the room was to sleep so it was a good price, but you might want to consider changing it the carpet for the smell

• Small but cozy

  4/5

  I wasn't expecting it to be in a basement, and it's a bit of a tight fit down there, but overall was cozy and worked for what I needed! If you're looking for a place to hang out at during the day, it's dark and small. But if you're looking for a place to just sleep and get ready in the morning, it works perfect! That's all I needed was a night time place to rest, so it was great for my needs!

  From the owner: " Thank you for sharing your feedback! I’m glad the space worked well for your needs as a cozy place to rest and get ready. We understand the basement layout can feel tight and dark, and that is why we have taken steps to add great lighting as well as new interior design. Your comments have helped us to improve, and we’re happy it was a good fit for your stay! We’d love to host you again if your travels bring you back to the area."

• Flooded and moldy

  1/5

  The basement apartment was flooded and stank of mildew. We had to vacate for health reasons. The owner has never contacted us about this. We demand a complete refund

  From the owner: " Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced in April 2025. The basement apartment was flooded and had a strong mildew odor, which forced us to vacate for health reasons. The owner has never been unresponsive; in fact, she responded immediately when alerted that the flooding was caused by an error on the part of the City of Fairbanks, which affected many homes in the area. Since then, the flooding problem has been extensively remedied, and we have hired a more responsive property management team to ensure better communication and care. While a refund was demanded at the time, it was unnecessary, as this would be a no-hassle refund situation. Additionally, the issues have now been fully resolved.
  We appreciate your understanding and patience as we endeavor to provide safe, comfortable accommodations, and remain committed to ongoing improvements."
