    The guest hours is in a convenient location and quiet neighborhood close to the Midland Trail which is great for walking or biking. The house was clean and comfy. The hot tub was refilled while we were there so for a 12 hour period during our stay the water needed to heat up before we could use it.

    The house was clean and exactly as pictured and there were some snacks left for us to enjoy - a nice touch. The area is definitely close to many attractions. The host responded very quickly to all correspondence. Unfortunately there were a few surprises. The 2 initial codes I was given to check in didn't work. The host did call with a new one that allowed us into the house. We booked this place for a few reasons. Two of those were the fenced in yard (fence isn't all the way to the ground so we couldn't let the dog out without being leashed) and another was the hot tub (not working for us). After requesting a partial refund, I was told I'll be issued one, which I do appreciate. However, I did have to ask; it wasn't offered. I would also suggest that the bathtub drain be cleaned. We stood in ankle deep water whenever we took a shower.

    This house was very cute, clean, and had everything we needed! The fenced backyard was great for our dog. It was located closely to Old Colorado City which had a bunch of shops and restaurants and was just down the street from Garden of the Gods. The only downside was that we were there on the hottest day of the year and there were AC units in the bedrooms but not the main living area and it got very hot.

    The place was clean inside. Check in was a pain and couldn't get the lock to work. I called the number attached to the email and the person who answered seemed surprised their number was given. They had to have someone else call to help me. The landscaping was non-existant, just dirt, some trash, and the fence was broken so we couldn't leave the dog unattended in the yard. The hot tub was DIRTY, so much I didn't get in. There were not extra blankets for the pull out couch or extra towels for the hot tub. It was ok for what we needed, which was a short sight-seeing stay.

    This has been one of the best vacation my husband and I have been on. The location is close to most of Colorado Springs (and close to a Walmart for groceries.) The hot tub was the main event, my husband and I came up there to relax and enjoy our weekend and we did just that. I cannot recommend this place enough :)

    This place had everything we needed for a weekend getaway!!! It is a 2 bedroom with pull out couch for small families and friends. Completely updated kitchen with washer and dryer. The view is just beautiful from the porch and so close to downtown. It is also quiet and private! My only recommendation is think about getting some type of internet router or extender:)
