Very cozy place to stay. It was always a nice warm temp to come home to at night. Love the set up for the kitchen area and the amount of blankets and pillows. Take the next part with a grain of salt as we are from CA and do not have basements, the concept is wild to us. Let alone this awesome basement was bigger than our apartment! Anyways, that being said. The first night we slept in the front room and noticed it was easy to hear people above which is understandable we were told they would be home late. It’s was a weekday I get that we would hear a little bit before 6am as well but we also assumed maybe it was just that room. So we switched to the other bedroom. Bigger quieter bed so it was a comfy switch. But same, we could still hear above us. Kelly was awesome when I did ask if they could keep it a little quieter. They immediately addressed it and we were able to sleep. Again, don’t take our version of some noise too horrible. If you are familiar with basement stays then it likely sounds exactly how you imagine and won’t be an issue. If you are a light sleeper, maybe bring some extra melatonin. We really enjoyed our time here and would happily stay here again. Quickly hot showers. Nice towels, the fire was soooooo nice and warm

Good place to stay and was just like the pictures. However, the door to get in was very hard to use and there was a lot of noise early in the morning from whoever lives above.

It was very nice place to commute to USAFA. Couple things I would wish is easier access to get to the property, the bush was blocking the way and we reached late night having no lights on at the unit downstairs. Another thing is sink to wash the dishes was missing, so I could not really do much. However place is very clean and worth for the money!
