Great place to stay for our visit to Fairbanks. Very clean and plenty of room. The host checked on us and made sure everything was good with us and gave us tips on how to see the northern lights. There is no way to beat the price for such a great place and location.

Kimberly We don’t have air conditioning in the unit. The wall thermostat work , and guests can adjust as needed. I don’t believe you stayed there. I believe it was Roy and another gentleman. To our knowledge.. They were great guest . We recommend them to any host, and they’re welcome back anytime.

Dawn Sorry you thought there was a garage to park in. In our ad we say that the third bedroom is a garage converted to a bedroom. Sorry you missed it.

The property was very clean and in a nice woodsy area. We didn’t realize that one of the bedrooms is a converted garage. The only difficulty with that was that early in the morning on Saturday a plumber was working on the other side of the wall and woke up my sleeping friends.The owner was very responsive in her communication. We appreciated having a fully stocked kitchen so that we could prepare our own meals.

Lucia Thanks for the review. Our listing shows that the garage is the 3rd bedroom. Sorry you missed it. The plumber started after 9 sorry it interrupted. He would have stopped if you had said something. Once again thanks for choosing Lou’s. Cynthia
