We were there in the middle of summertime and the AC just couldn’t keep it cool during the heat of day and my kids downstairs were complaining about how hot it was downstairs and it never really got cool until morning time with AC running full time, also bunk beds need to be upgraded they squeak very loud with the slightest movement, the place was clean and would probably be fine in the spring or fall but I wouldn’t use it during the summer or winter

Nice little spot

We were traveling with two kids and the bunkbed in an open room situation didn't work well for us. Our kids need a room with a door but that's on us, not the house. One thing that does need to be addressed is the insane squeakiness of the metal bunk bed with each slight move of the person sleeping in it. It kept us all up a while before my kids fell asleep and got still. I walked the neighborhood early in the morning and felt safe.

Clean and quiet

We are a family of 5 with kids from 6yo- 12. In the morning we are not quiet. When we stay in a hotel I have to shush my kids about 100 time so we don’t disturb the hotel rooms beside and below us. This guest house was far enough away from everything else that we just got to have fun in the morning and be our loud selves. The it was very clean and seemingly pretty new. We were able to walk down to the little pond in the backyard as seen on the description. It was a nice little retreat for a few minutes. I would recommend this guest house to anyone.

Clean, comfortable, private, peaceful, serene, scenic--all are adjectives applicable to this attractive property. My husband and I have spent many nights in upscale hotels, but there are very few amenities more important than peace and quiet, which were in abundance here!

Perfect hideaway just outside town

We loved our time in the Bardominium. The host couldn't have been nicer and was in great communication with us. Everything we needed was there and the place was clean and comfortable. We loved being able to sit out on the balcony and see the chickens in the morning as we drank our morning coffee. Would definitely stay again next time we are in Chelsea!

The place was very nice and clean! The owners were very nice and friendly. The neighborhood was very quiet and more of a rural setting. But only a few minutes from town. If we ever come back to the area I would definitely stay here again!
