Location is two blocks from the School of Mines and very convenient. View from the deck onto the hills was very pretty and peaceful and the deck had nice outdoor furniture. Laundry is located downstairs however we didn’t use. Apartment is located above the garage up a flight of stairs. Parking next to the stairs is tight but ok for a small car. The apartment looks new, clean and well taken care of. Bathroom and shower are clean and nice, comfortable. The only area that needed improvement were the pillows which were too soft but not a deal breaker. As we had no time to go to shops and for people without a car, some basics in the apartment like Kleenex, tea, hot chocolate/apple cider would have been helpful and made our trip complete. Keep in mind that no one checks the VRBO app for messages. Once I called the company that handles the reservation and was given the owner’s cell number, communication was awesome.
