Love the location of this home and the cleanliness was great checking in was very easy. We loved staying in this historical home and would do it again.!
We loved this place! It has so much charm and the layout is ideal. Such a beautiful historic home in downtown Colorado Springs! We appreciated the full kitchen and amenities and the host was responsive and helpful.
Excellent stay for our week in Colorado Springs! Having the complete flat was perfect for our family. I didn't realize there was another apartment in the building but it wasn't a problem at all. Jennifer was great at communicating and the location was terrific. Would stay here again!
Home was beautiful! We loved the little squeaks the floors made. It added to the old home charm. Snacks in the kitchen were a hit with the kids. Would definitely rent again if we’re in the area! Communication with host was quick & easy, they’re very responsive & accommodating! We got into town earlier than expected & they were able to let us check in early which was great!
The house is very cool - the uniqueness that only comes with old houses paired with the freshness of updates (kitchen, bathroom). It had everything we needed.I would highly suggest the next update being new mattresses. All of the beds upstairs are incredibly squeaky & I was surprised at how EXTRA firm the master bed was (not a typical hotel/vrbo fit).The location is central to everything - manitou springs, movie theaters, museums, etc.
Our second time staying here ! My kids, husband, and I really enjoy this property and it seems they are constantly adding small bits and changes to make it better. It’s close to everything in downtown Colorado Springs !
Wonderful place to stay for a couple of nights. It was so comfortable. Very cute little apartment equipped with everything one might need for a quick getaway
This place was great for what we needed! We were out all day so it was nice to come back to a cozy place right in town. We like charming older places and Frank’s Flat is clean and updated in all the right things. Beds were comfortable. The host was quick to respond. We would stay here again.
The owner was super responsive! It’s a gorgeous place to stay at! I would totally come back if I ever go back! It has everything you need! Perfect location to get to most places!
This is the second time I've stayed at Frank's Flat. The check in process is very easy and the place is always clean. I would absolutely stay there again. Very quiet neighborhood.
The heater didn't work in the living room. Nice place. The relatives I went there to visit weren't sure about that neighborhood, but I had no problems.
Overall, it is private, easy to find, easy to communicate with the owner, and the kitchen is clean. However, the house is a bit old, so it makes some noise and the air conditioning is noisy.
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
This place was very nice and fit us all very comfortably. I wish it had 2 bathrooms and washer and dryer in the unit, but would definatwly stY there again.
