The home was immaculate! Becky had everything you could need. The small fans in each room was a great touch. The BEST was the homemade cinnamon rolls!
Staying right downtown was so fun. There are so many restaurants with live music on weekends.
We treated the walks up Snake Alley as our gym workouts. It was fun and so beautiful. We will stay again.

An immaculate modern renovation home on a most unique and charming street. Kitchen better equipped than our own homes- and sparkling clean. Cinnamon rolls supplied for breakfast led us on a jaunt to bakery to buy more. We appreciated almost instant communication with host and her suggestions. Don’t miss Martini’s, GOOD and SOM restaurants. Returning in September!

We absolutely loved staying at the Snake Alley Inn! The pictures do not do this residence justice. Everything is well appointed down to the light fixtures. Becky went out of her way to make us feel at home. From dining suggestions to the wonderful welcome breakfast and maps of the area. We truly enjoyed our stay. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and has high end appliances. We will definitely be staying here the next time we are in town.
Becky and Kelsi, thank you again for sharing your home with us.

This location exceeded our expectations. The house is absolutely charming, fresh, modern amenities, and super clean. Location was amazing, we could walk to most places. Becky, the property owner, was delightful to work with.. We will definitely return. And, the cinnamon rolls the owner left for us were yummy and made a great breakfast for our first morning.

This was the perfect location to stay with my daughter and parents while visiting my sister! While it was top-notch and 5-star clean, updated and just lovely overall, the added perk of being on Snake Alley resulted in a super fun memory for all of us. We had fun driving down the winding, steep alley at least 3 times to the delight of my 13 year old daughter, and my parents loved their morning walks to the downtown area that includes some cool restaurants, coffee shop and the Mississippi River. The only thing I would add to the listing for those viewing is if you have a family member that can’t walk up and down hills...you have to either park at the top or bottom of Snake Alley and it could be difficult for the elderly. That said, you can drop someone/luggage off in front of the house but can’t remain idling for long as there’s not room for a car to pass through while you’re parked. Also, for families looking to book the property, maybe with more than one family, the entire upstairs is like a very private master suite with an added sitting area with 2 more bedrooms downstairs. This allowed my parents to feel a bit separate from us which is always nice when traveling with extended family. Thank you for sharing your beautiful and unique property, Becky!!
P.S. Thanks for the cinnamon rolls; they were amazing and I could use one right now! ;)

We love this house! This was our 3rd stay and every time it was spotless!! It’s very picturesque being on Snake Alley. The inside has been updated so nicely. Nice little patio in back yard with a table and grill. I would recommend this darling house to anyone except those with disabilities or elderly. And that is because of stairs and having to walk Snake Alley to get in and out. But Snake Alley is what makes it so cool for those that can handle the stairs. You can drive down the Alley to load and unload! Very comfy beds, great location, and walkable restaurants nearby. Go to Good restaurant or Martinis for a meal and fun environment. Visit the charming Grotto at St Mary’s in West Burlington and Crapo Park in Burlington.

We had a wonderfully relaxing holiday weekend with sisters. The sunroom off the kitchen was our favorite place to camp out and hang together. The house was roomy and private. We are already planning a trip back!
