Bungalow with hidden room behind bookcase door and no cleaning fees
First off I would just like to thank those recently that have been affected by my surgery have been so kind and flexible and understanding to the point of even refusing discounts I offered to inconveniences brought on by my recovery and to the the others I again extend my heartfelt apologies for any inconveniences🤓 06/20/2025 Clean, airy, private basement apartment with hidden room featuring pool table/air hockey behind James Bond style hidden room which is entered through bookcase door…..A former guest was perplexed when he couldn’t find the promised pool table thats how well its hidden. 3 tvs (common area and both bedrooms ) come equipped with Roku and mNetflix. 2 full windows in bedrooms provide natural light and super comfortable queen size beds. It is a renovated basement…. It is clean, roomy with eclectic tasteful decor. In the renovation we decided to go with a kitchenette so there is no stove/oven, however we included as follows: Microwave, air fryer, mini fridge, a double sink, coffee maker/kuerig, toaster oven, and a hot plate. Plates, silverware, pots/pans are readily available but it is an area not conducive for preparing Thanksgiving dinner. In addition for your convenience a full size washer/dryer is at your disposal. Toiletry items are available upon request.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a coffee/tea maker and a washing machine, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Breakfast is available for a fee.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Cigarette smoke, allergy sufferers beware.
Communication with Traci was great. Check in process was a challenge, Traci was gracious enough to give us a discount due to an unexpected situation with housekeeping. Once we found the entrance and trudged thru the knee high weeds in the dark, we entered the apartment thru a cloud of stale and fresh cigarette smoke. Listing says nothing about the smoking. Allergy sufferers beware! Cute basement apartment, not overly clean but will give grace due to issues with housekeeping. Served its purpose for our needs. Very glad we only needed a comfortable clean bed and a hot shower. Kitchen leaves little to be desired.

We were there for a short stay. The place was cute, loved the game room behind the hidden door. There were a lot of stairs which was challenging for me with a leg injury (not their fault).

Not the best experience
How to locate the unit was a little confusing. The entire basement smelled like cigarette smoke so badly it gave us all head aches. One night during our stay, the host was up pretty late with company over and it was hard to fall asleep. I would never recommend this place or stay there again.

Just eh
The secret room was the main I booked this place. It was underwhelming as the room was too small to actually play pool, the table wasn’t level, and the pool sticks were broken. My son stepped in dog poo as we walked through the gate to the basement access door. It served its purpose as a single overnight stop.

Fun but Quirky
Pros: good location, relatively clean, fun games, good tv and streaming, owner is responsive.Wishes: bathroom and kitchen need updated. Stairs are steeper than I thought they would be. 2 small dogs annoying as you come in and out. Your must open 2 gates and walk on uneven path to get to door. People upstairs smoke so the smell comes through when the heat is on. You have to ask to have the heat turned on.

Challenging
The property is as listed online and the hostess is very responsive but the fact that it's someone's basement was a bit disconcerting. We had an interesting/questionable encounter with someone from the family and chose to cut our stay short by a couple of days.The hostess was very responsive but the whole stay was a bit disconcerting.

I won't go back
This was a basement property. It was well decorated but the points they used to advertise the property were moot points. They spoke about the pool table. We tried playing for a second but then gave up .The pool table was in a horrible condition. There was not enough space in the room to even play the game. You would hit the cue stick on the walls. Owner of the property stayed right above and had several visitors over. I couldn't sleep the first night as they were walking around and making noises till 0130 am. On top of that, the place was freezing. She told me that I need to tell her to switch on the heat. Who even expects that? It was 20F outside. My feet froze. It's common sense to heat up the place. I had to ask the next day to switch on the heat. Also, the shower wasn't working. I started giving a bath to my daughter and it stopped midway. She sent the plumber to fix it rightaway but it was a terrible shower to begin with. It was a terrible experience to take a shower. I agree that she was very apologetic and nice but her apologies don't help my experience. I wanted a relaxed stay with my family and expected basic amenities but I didn't get that.

Not fancy. Just functional.
This is a great option for anyone looking to have a space to relax and enjoy the company they are with while in Spokane. My family was in town for a wrestling tournament my daughter was participating in (she came in third in her bracket). This space was a good option for us as it includes access to a kitchenette (sink, mini fridge, hot plate, coffee maker, toaster, and air fryer), washer/dryer, and lots of games! It was difficult to actually play pool in the "secret" room because of limited space, but still fun. The host was very good with communication. The one thing we did not realize was that the upstairs renters would come downstairs without notice to use the laundry facilities. Surprise! Not a big deal, just a surprise. Anyhow, if you just need a good space to be, this works. Don't be the type that gets their panties in a bunch over little things.

EWU Football Weekend
Thisnwas perfect for our family of 3. We needed an affordable place to stay for a very quick trip to town to catch a football game. This was great. It was clean, the comments from reviews were correct. When we needed it warmer because a cold front came in, the property owner immediately helped out.We had a little trouble figuring out the shower head, but got it eventually. If you are not good with stairs this is not for you, very steep. You do hear the people above, but we knew that going in and it wasnt an issue for us. The dogs are super cute! Our son loved the video games.It was great for what we needed for the weekend, a warm clean place to rest our heads in a safe neighborhood.
