Beautifully decorated with well equipped kitchen. It was about the same price as a standard local hotel, but since we had a great kitchen, we were able to save money on our meals. Any time we are in town for multiple days, we will try to stay here again.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Schoolhouse Apartment; it was immaculately clean, and everything worked exactly as it should. The location was perfect for me, in a neighborhood near the bike path that leads from Glenwood Springs to Aspen, via Carbondale. Sarah was very friendly, though everything was in such good order, that I didn't need to contact her during my stay.

Great Stay with lots of amenities

The Santanski School was a beautiful rental. The place was extremely spacious, the kitchen was well stocked with dishware and spices, there was easy parking, and the place was quiet. I was impressed with the amount of extra amenities: lotion in the bathroom, extra cords for charging devices, and ample amounts of spices. This rental exceeded my expectations and I hope to stay here again whenever I'm back in the area.

Comfortable, clean, and centrally located!

The property was very clean, easy to get to, and Sarah was really friendly and helpful. We planned a bike ride from Carbondale to Aspen, and hopped right on the Rio Grande trail less than a mile from the property. We took the bus back from Aspen, which arrives at the Carbondale Park and Ride, which is also so close to the property. Very great stay!

One of the best in the Aspen Area

Easily one of the best rentals I’ve stayed at and I’ve stayed at many over the past decade. The family is beyond kind and welcomed us the second we arrived. No detail is missed: place is sparkling clean, warm soft blankets everywhere, fresh flowers on the counter, quality soap and shampoo, an incredibly well stocked kitchen, and the furniture/appliances were so nice I wish they were my own! Bed was very comfortable, and a big entryway was great for ski gear. Will definitely stay again with my wife next time we get the chance to visit the Aspen area!

Clean and Spacious Getaway

I rented this picturesque unit while visiting Carbondale for a friends’ wedding. I ended up having a friend stay with me as well, and there was plenty of room! It was a busy weekend, and we were out most of the time, but for a longer stay, the kitchen would be a dream to cook in, very well appointed! Our host was very gracious and let me check in early due as well. I would 100% stay here again!

Winter ski trip

This home was the nicest we stayed in during our ‘23 ski road trip. The home was very well equipped, comfortable, clean lines and quiet. It was very kind of Sarah to accept some packages we mailed c/o her ahead of our arrival. We also really liked the personal touches in the apartment including fresh flowers. Would not hesitate to stay here again when we next visit the area.

Absolutely Wonderful

My husband and I (both in our late 60’s) to ski Snowmass and Aspen. The Historic Satanski School was absolutely perfect. And if we could award more stars - we would. The condo is the nicest we have stayed in on our many trips out west. Quiet/ Convenient/and well stocked with everything that is needed for preparing meals. There are also a number of very good brew pubs in Carbondale and Basalt for those who want a dinner out. Would definitely return on a future visit.
