Downtown Home w/ Grill: 5 Mi to Garden of the Gods

Reviews

• Just enough for us

  5/5

  Would stay here again. Front room had fold out couch rather than 2 chairs pictured which actually was perfect for us. Kitchen had everything we needed. Bathrooms were nice and everything had been remodled. Looked nice inside. Outside could use a little up keep. Gas grill did not light. Charcoal grill was available but we didn't use. There was a small park nearby with a walk/bike trail which we loved. Good value. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

• Minor issues but great place otherwise

  4/5

  The neighborhood was very quiet, the AC worked well (a must!) & the home felt clean & comfortable.

  The home itself is old & went through a DIY renovation so there's a few quirks. I would consider staying here again but I do want to share a few of challenges we had.

  - Don't expect any floors in the region to be perfectly level but the floors here, especially in the living room, were exceptionally uneven. I would NOT recommend this home for anyone with mobility/balance issues for safety reasons.

  - Decorative throw pillows on the bed that looked as though they could not be laundered between guests.

  - The master bathroom closet let in a half dozen moths every night. It's bug season so they'd wander in every time we switched the light on but that's a lot of moths.

  - The TV with no cable, so we had our streaming services, but no access to local news.

  - Seems like a local culture to keep some essentials in the fridge & pantry (how kind), but discovering open condiments from previous guests (specifically mayonnaise) has us grossed out & concerned about allergen exposures. Salt & Pepper? Awesome! So grateful. Open container you'd dip a utensil into? Hard pass.

  For future stays, we would've appreciated:

  No open foods & a fresh sponge for dishes.

  Written instructions in the home for things like garbage collection, check-out, local recommendations, etc.

  Lamps in both bedrooms & nightlights in bathrooms.

  A designated place for boots & coats near the door.

  Still enjoyed our stay!

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Terry, we truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts about your recent stay. Your feedback is essential to us, and we've relayed your comments to the homeowner, who would like to address the following:
  -The coffee pot was left unplugged for safety reasons, a common practice in many hotels. It simply needed to be plugged in for use.
  -It appears that a pet was brought into the property during your stay. Please note that we have a strict no-pets to ensure the comfort and safety of all guests. This required us to perform a hypoallergenic cleaning of the property.
  Our commitment to providing an exceptional stay remains steadfast, and we eagerly anticipate hosting many more satisfied guests.
