The room was clean. The host was helpful in helping us find the place. Hot tub was great! The only minor issues we had was the couch was a little older and slightly uncomfortable and we couldn’t control the temperature. Other than that, we recommend this stay!
Very clean, had all essentials, safe neighborhood, no complaints other than the wasps hanging near the hot tub. Great place for small family or couples.
The host and facilities were great! My only suggestion is a light to illuminate the entry door in the wooden fence. In the dark it blends into the fence so well that it was challenging to find. The streetlight casts a shadow on the doorway, making it even tougher to locate for first time renters. It would be helpful to leave the exterior stairway light on when evening arrivals are expected. In the winter, this should be anytime after 4 pm.
Everything needed for a low frills location close to little cottonwood canyon for a 20 minute drive to Alta. It's a basement as advertised but not musty or shabby. Got excellent support from the owner. Close to ski rental shops and plenty of places to eat. Worked great for our long weekend.
A simple, easy, no frills abode for ski bums. Really good for a couple (1bed). Spacious big room for everything else. Did not use the hot tub but looked hot and clean and ready to go. Place was clean.
I needed a small place to stay that was close to where I was working. This place was great! It had everything I needed and was just as described. The shower is AMAZING! It was a little cold in the evenings and the heaters did just the trick! Drew was very prompt at responding to needs and requests. The neighborhood is great as well. I would definitely rent this place again and will refer friends.
For our ski vacation, my son and I enjoyed this nicely located house and the amenities like the hot tub and the very nice bathroom. The main room area was quite large and nice for staging our equipment for each day. The beds were comfortable. The only drawback was since this is a basement, you can hear foot steps from the people upstairs but that usually stopped before bedtime.
Overall we liked it and would stay there again.
I would say overall it was about what I expected. Its a basement converted to be very accommodating for a long stay. It is in the mountains of Utah so you are gonna get a few uninvited guests of the insect family so if that isn't your thing keep that in mind. The only down side was at the end of my stay the folks upstairs did come home late and I could hear every step which did keep me awake which isnt ideal for an early flight out the next morning but again this is a basement and par for the course.
