I stayed here for two nights. The apartment is accessed by entering the front door of the house and then there is a side door inside that leads to the basement apartment. I was not given a key and there is no keypad. Kelly met me when I arrived in the afternoon to let me in. There is a private entrance if you use the patio doors, but I did not use them and I am not sure how easy it would be to get to them walking down the side of the house. There wasn’t a way to secure the apartment when I left in the afternoon because I didn’t get a key. It’s a remote area, so I’m sure this isn’t really an issue. The apartment is nice and large with everything needed for breakfast. There is a beautiful view. I mentioned to Kelly after checkout that the smoke alarm had been disconnected and I didn’t see it. She told me it was on the shelf. I couldn’t confirm that because I had already checked out. Expect foot traffic as this is a basement apartment. The foot traffic started at 6:15am on day one and then at 7:00am on day two. Day two foot traffic was quite bad- children running, playing and dropping things, etc. I asked Kelly if this was normal and she said she had out of town guests visiting. Unfortunately the noise upstairs created a negative experience for me and I would not stay here again.
