The place is cute and clean. I was a bit concerned about the neighborhood, but the security is good and I felt good about being able to park my truck behind a gate. The back yard was awesome! I always felt comfortable about letting my dogs spend a bit of time out there; the fence is very secure.
Wonderful little house in depreciated neighborhood
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was wonderful to have a fenced backyard for our two dogs. I gave a 4 star rating for cleanliness simply because the fans are desperately in need of cleaning. Otherwise, we found the house spectacular. It is in a depressed area of Trinidad: older homes, some vacant. It was not an issue with us tho. We will definitely stay again when in the area.
This is a really nice, clean place that is thoughtfully decorated. It is tucked away on a quiet cul de sac with a large yard and many dog friendly amenities. Highly recommended!
We were very comfortable in this beautiful home and extended our stay to enjoy more of Trinidad. Our host’s restaurant recommendations on restaurants were spot on. All communications were very positive.
The house was clean, tidy, everything was there that you needed with clear and concise directions. It is very attractively decorated, comfortable and cozy. Perfect for a one night or longer stay if you are in the area.
The house was extremely clean. I loved the interior of this house. The beds were very comfortable. I would stay here again.

We loved our 3-night stay at this beautifully redone home. The kitchen was well-equipped, even though we just ate breakfast there. We hope to return in the future.

The property and its owner were excellent. The surrounding houses are a bit run down, but ir wasn't an issue.
This is our second stay at this house. We again had an excellent stay. The consistency of the property condition was really appreciated. And walking distance to downtown. There’s a great Chinese food restaurant,Wonderful House, a block away. Highly recommend.
This little house has been so tastefully renovated! We loved it! They had everything we needed. The bed and pillows were comfortable too! Everything was clean and very well thought out.
The folks on our street were quiet and seemed family oriented, playing with their kiddos on the front porch. We even had an adorable, curious neighborhood puppy greet us when we arrived. 😊

Nicely Remodeled Property
It was a very cold two days and the house always had a chill. The bathroom toilet and shower hot water froze on checkout day. Wood stove kept us mostly warm. Notified owner by text that we put a space heater near toilet before we left. Owner didn't respond regarding our incovenience or thank us for replacing deplete firewood. Otherwise a very nice property with updated furnishings close to downtown.
This is a wonderful property! The house was absolutely immaculate. The hosts thought of everything we could possibly need. The bed linens are comparable to a 5 star hotel. If you are traveling with your pet, the backyard is a dog’s dream. The house is in a convenient location. The houses close by could use some work but they don’t detract from this perfect place! We totally recommend this house!
Came to Trinidad to ride The Rad gravel race. Love the house. Great renovation of an old Trinidad home. Quiet neighborhood. Nice fenced yard to sit out & enjoy the weather. A short walk or bike ride from downtown. Hope to visit again & stay at this place in 2023.
Beautiful and very comfortable home. It was all we needed for the night. The coffee bar was well suited along with the fire place which had a very nice touch. There was quite the commotion with the property across the street with a lot of people coming and going throughout the night, that was a tad bit distracting and brought some uneasiness. But, everything with the property was wonderful. Thank you!!!
What a great "stay" enough room for 2 people or 2 couples and our dogs. The back yard is fenced in. It is freshly remodeled. High ceilings with the most beautiful pine wood. A very modern up to date look. On a dead end road with a few older smaller homes and right next to the Trinidad University. Absolutely quiet area. Also, right next to I-25 and a few minutes from downtown shopping and eating. I loved the complementary doggy bowls under the kitchen island welcoming our pets.
