About this property

Bungalow with hidden room behind bookcase door and no cleaning fees

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.

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.

Huge disappointment
The home looks as though it was abandoned. Dead grass and weeks covered the front lawn. The entrance to the home was from the back yard which had the same landscaping. The pathway to the back yard was composed of uneven pavers. Entrance required decent down a steep, dimly lit staircase with a loose hand rail. The beds were poorly made and did not appear clean. An attempt to contact the host, who was on site was futile. She would not answer the door. The photographs of the unit do not fairly represent it. The condition of the unit was so poor that we were not willing to stay there.

Adorable cozy comfortable unique VRBO
This fun, unique property is located in a basement that has plenty of light and is decorated beautifully! Very Clean!!! It is very cozy yet spacious and comfortable. We thought it was adorable!! The living room area has a big tv & comfortable couch to kick back & relax. There’s a tall game/bar table to eat at & two video game machines that were really fun! The secret “Nancy Drew” hidden room behind the bookcase was super cool!!! We played a little pool and grabbed a book to read. The two bedrooms are spacious with comfortable beds. One bedroom has a window air conditioner and the other a big fan. Since my mom is older and runs cool, this room was perfect for her. I was happy there was an air conditioner in our room. It was very hot (in the 90’s) when we were here, yet the entire rental stayed cool and comfortable. The bathroom was cute and big enough for two of us to use at the same time to get ready to go out. The only thing I would add is extra TP and paper towels. The kitchenette, located in its own room at the back was terrific! Little refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, dishes, silverware, wine and water glasses, coffee cups and several electric cooking items were available to use. Coffee and creamer was also provided. There is a washer and dryer for use. You need to supply your own laundry soap. The sink was big & soap & a new sponge were provided so it was easy to hand wash our dishes. I would add paper towels. Perfect home away when in Spokane!! We loved it!

Clean, comfortable, very private, with just the right amount of not perfect. If you're looking for fancy and super nice, probably not the spot for you. But for a very reasonable price, super clean, but a little rough around the edges, it was just fine. We would go back.

About the host

Hosted by Traci Goff

Host profile image
Hi my name is Traci… I have been in the hospitality business my whole adult life. Catering, party planning, and tending bar to name a few. Now as an empty nester combined with an injury I was looking for something to supplement my income. I am a people pleaser and honestly, want you to enjoy your time. I am available as much as you need or as little as you’d like so feel free to let me know if there’s something you would like to make your stay more comfortable, and I will do my best to accommodate you.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is one of the nicer neighborhoods in Spokane, quiet and private and safe.

What makes this property unique

is very spacious. The rooms are quite large and there’s over 1200 ft.² and three TVs so you don’t have to be on top of one another if there’s more than one guest.. Additionally, I added a wall partition with a hidden bookcase door just for fun, mainly for my grandkids, but for your enjoyment as well…. People have missed it. It’s so well hidden so don’t miss out.!
