The apartment was perfectly located and had everything we needed for a lovely visit to Boulder. Communication with the host was excellent and we appreciated the opportunity to get in a little early. Always love being able to walk to restaurants. We had full privacy and had no issues with noise form above. We would definitely stay here again.

The property was very classy and VERY convenient. There could have been a few less spider webs (and spiders). And although the marketing of the property does disclose that it is in a basement, the upstairs occupants (the hosts) are a very active and heavy-footed couple. That said, we enjoyed the place very much.

Loved the neighborhood and proximity to Pearl Street. We had a great time here and our visit to Boulder. The unit was as advertised and we enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it to others. It was clean, easy to access, private and completely comfortable. Thanks for a great time

We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay during our trip! The place is very spacious and in a great location near many stores, restaurants, etc. The owners were very friendly and they were very easy to communicate with as needed. The check-in/check-out process was also very simple. Definitely worth the stay if you are in the area!
3.0
It was a clean and welcoming environment. But we did not see that it was a rental space that is also shared with the owners. They come and go from the rental as they wish while renters are there. So privacy is limited to almost non existent. The bedroom area is in the front of the rental and has no complete privacy or way to close it off

This property is located just two blocks from Pearl Street. The location could not be any better for dinner, shopping, and even trails located within a mile. We really enjoyed our stay!
5.0
We had a great visit. The apartment is lovely, comfortable, and well stocked. Hosts are a gracious couple who are fully available without any hovering. Private patio is a great perk on nice evenings. Home is easily accessible to restaurants, shopping district and public transit but still very peaceful. Highly recommend.

Super smooth check-in, unique spot to stay, feels like a downtown Boulder home experience. Easy walk to Pearl Street (such an awesome spot!) makes it great for a night out to dinner & drinks. Definitely recommend!
5.0
We typically have a few main criteria when picking a place to stay in Boulder. We don’t spend a lot of time indoors when we’re here. We like to be able to quickly get to hiking and then be able walk to dining and shopping. Pearl Street is an easy 3-4 minute walk. The stay at the house included street parking right in front, so there was never a need to drive to Pearl and pay to park. The bed and pillows were comfortable and just as pictured. There is a nice sitting area outside to enjoy the weather. Numerous grocery stores and shopping nearby. Almost every hike was a 15 minute drive from the house which was perfect.
The space has a nice indoor sitting area near the bed and fireplace and a large closet with dresser for your clothes.
The bathroom is exactly as pictured and the shower had good water pressure.
The unit has a free standing air conditioner in the suite which works perfectly for the space. We were here at the end of summer so it wasn’t cool enough to keep windows open yet. There was also a small turbo fan for those who need white noise.
A few items of note 1) the suite is down a flight of stairs, so if you have any issues with stairs this may not work for you; 2) as stated, the suite is completely private, however there is a shared area where the washer and dryer are, that being said, we never bumped into the owners in the shared area; 3) there is a TV, located in the 2nd sitting room off of the kitchen area.
Overall, great stay!

This place was so cute and quaint! It was a great place for a casual girls night and bridal party prep space. I thought it would be weird having people above us, but you didn’t even notice. The family was so nice and made it a point to say hello during our stay and congratulate us!
5.0
This property is in the basement of the owners' house. Richard was extremely responsive and proactive in making sure we would have a smooth check-in. The location is in a very pleasant neighborhood with historic Victorians and a small park. The 2-block walk to Pearl Street can't be beat. I'd recommend bringing your own shampoo and conditioner, as those were not provided. We would be happy to return.

Great surprisingly spacious apartment that was very well appointed. The kitchen was particularly nice, but everything was beautifully done. Outdoor space was also a great little bonus. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend.

Our visit at Kelly and Richard's home was so comfortable and enjoyable because of the extra considerations they gave to our stay. We had wifi that worked great, found little toys for our granddaughter to play with, books to explore, the AC was running so our room was cool at check-in, we had coffee, cocoa, oatmeal and more set out for us, we had a quiet and homey location for neighborhood walking, and even walked up Mapleton Street to do some walking/hiking on the Sanitas Trail. Pearl Street restaurant dining was amazing and literally a 5-10 minute walk. 5 stars for our experience! Thank you!

We were in Boulder for a week with our two dogs for a hiking vacation. We couldn’t be more pleased with our stay. We were a 5 minute walk from Pearl Street with its great retail stores, restaurants and coffee shops. World class hikes were within a 45 minute drive. The neighborhood couldn’t be more charming. And the hosts were accessible, helpful, and fun to talk to.

My family had a wonderful, comfortable stay at the house. The property owners were super helpful and friendly, and the house was a short walk from excellent restaurants and shopping on Pearl Street.

Our visit to Boulder was cut short by COVID-19. Richard and Kelly were understanding and helped work out a compromise partial refund of our unused days, for which we were appreciative.Of the property, as stated before, the suite is the basement floor of the owners' home. There is a separate entrance, and abundant overhead lighting, but limited natural light and some sounds from above, as would be expected in a basement. The kitchen not exactly a discreet space, but rather a collection of cooking appliances (microwave and toaster oven in office area cabinet, hot plate in storage cabinet above breakfast table, coffee maker and toaster on breakfast table) gathered near the utility sink, washer and dryer, and very large basement fridge. I would not recommend trying to cook a meal for a large gathering here, but you can definitely whip together a simple dinner if, for example, social distancing prevents eating out regularly. Otherwise, this property is walking distance to Pearl Street Mall, where restaurants abound, when open. The queen bed has a thick, very soft pillow-top, so stomach sleepers may need to try out the other bed, a fold-out couch. The walk-in shower in the single bathroom is generous and gorgeous. Plus pet-friendly, but without evidence of previous pets, i.e. clean.

Great place - convenient location!
We had a five-star experience while staying here during our short trip to Boulder. The space was clean, quiet, and comfortable. It’s a really attractive unit, with hardwood floors, exposed brick, multiple sitting areas, and a few windows letting in natural light despite it being a basement suite.
Our hosts made sure we were well stocked with towels, linens, and the like. There’s plenty of closet/drawer space to store your things. We didn’t cook while we were there, but the unit can accommodate that. It included everything short of a stove (we spotted a toaster, microwave, hot plate, coffee maker, and a large fridge). A washer and dryer were on-site, too.
The real advantage of using this place for your trip to Boulder is the location. It’s just a short walk to the Pearl Street Mall and the surrounding downtown attractions. If you’re looking to hike, you can reach some trailheads by car in a few minutes. We barely used our car during our stay.
The unit is pet friendly. Our dogs were able to use the fenced-in yard for bathroom trips and there’s a small park around the corner as well.
Kelly and Richard were polite and friendly when we chatted, and they were hands-off during our stay. All in all, this is a great place to call home during your next trip to Boulder!

Good location but..........
The home is located in a neighborhood that is easy walking distance to shops and restaurants with good parking. Owners were initially friendly and available for questions.
We did not realize the space was in a basement. The light from the windows was poor and the ventilation non-existent. I find it hard to believe the City of Boulder granted occupancy for this basement apartment. When we tried to run the bathroom fan for ventilation the owners told us to turn it off. The noise from upstairs was annoying. Loud footsteps and the couple often fighting punctuated our stay. In Richard's defense, he apologized for the screaming matches and even kindly showed me an apology card he got for his wife. Expect frequent announced and un-announced visits to the space as their freezer, refrigerator, and washer and dryer are in the guest space. Their cat was left in our space for an entire day and we are allergic. The un-announced visits and surveillance of our activities felt uncomfortable and, at times, creepy. We shared the bathroom with ants and other bugs. Supposedly pet friendly but we were charged extra for pet cleaning. We are hosts on our own buildings and have professional management, this operation is definitely Mom-and-Pop style.

The home is located in a neighborhood that is easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Nice balance of quiet and accessibility. Owners were friendly and available for questions.
We did not realize it was basement unit. It did not offer much sunlight and we could hear people walking above us. The kitchen did not have a stove but a microwave and toaster oven were in a room next to the kitchen.

You will not be disappointed if you stay at this private, beautiful and spacious home. We stayed for 4 days and were able to walk everywhere or catch a the local transit to all our destinations. Although this was our first visit, we will be back and now have family members who plan on staying with Richard and Kelly as well. Do yourself a favor and stay with them!!
