Thank you so much, Ariel!
I’m really glad the communication and directions made check-in smooth, and that you enjoyed the snacks and drinks. It was a pleasure hosting you.
You’re always welcome back whenever you’re in Orem again.
My daughter and I really enjoyed this cozy apartment. She was busy all day with a training program, and in the evenings we cooked in the excellent kitchen and watched movies together on the big couch. Jimmy is a great communicator and super nice man. I am happy to highly recommend his place to other travelers.

About the host
Hosted by Jimmy Nguyen
Hi, I'm Jimmy from Utah Valley!
I love living here with the beautiful Wasatch Mountains right nearby, fresh air, and a welcoming community. In my free time, I enjoy hiking local trails, exploring parks, and finding great coffee spots. I'm passionate about hosting because I get to share the best of the area with travelers. Whether you're visiting BYU or UVU, heading to Provo Canyon for hiking/skiing, exploring Utah Lake, or just needing a comfortable base — I'm here to help make your stay easy and memorable.
I'm easygoing, respond quickly, and genuinely enjoy ensuring my guests feel at home.
Welcome — I look forward to hosting you!
Why they chose this property
I chose this quiet residential neighborhood in Utah Valley because it offers the perfect balance for travelers.
It's just minutes from UVU and a short drive to BYU, while being right at the edge of Provo Canyon — giving you super easy access to hiking, skiing at Sundance, and stunning mountain scenery.
At the same time, you get the peace and privacy of a safe, friendly neighborhood (away from busy campus traffic and noise), plus quick access to I-15 for day trips to Salt Lake City, Utah Lake, shopping, restaurants, and more.
I love that guests can enjoy a comfortable, home-like stay with convenient location without feeling crowded or in the middle of everything. It's ideal whether you're here for university events, outdoor adventures, or just a relaxing getaway.
What makes this property unique
My cozy private basement apartment stands out as a true home-away-from-home with excellent privacy and thoughtful comforts. What makes it special:
Completely private entrance so you come and go as you please Private bathroom and your own full kitchen + washer/dryer Super-fast Wi-Fi (over 600 Mbps) — perfect for streaming, video calls, or remote work Spotlessly clean with fresh linens, quality bedding, and a well-stocked kitchen (including local coffee and tea) Plenty of natural light, comfortable seating, and modern touches throughout Huge concrete patio/outdoor space for relaxing
Located in a quiet residential neighborhood, it gives you the best of both worlds: peaceful and private, yet only minutes from UVU, a short drive to BYU, and right near the entrance to Provo Canyon for hiking and skiing. Guests especially love the independence and comfort compared to typical hotel rooms or noisy campus housing.
