I’m This is My Cousin’s Place. We are not a hotel! We are not an inn! If you are looking for a standard hotel, or a swanky inn, keep on looking! We offer private bedrooms and shared everything else. There is no front desk, no private en-suite bathrooms; this is not a modern building with amenities such as elevators, soundproofed walls, or central AC. My Cousin’s Place does not have any of that! Does yours?
What we do have is a central location in the heart of Burlington, where you can rent a private room by the night to explore the city, do some work, or just relax. This is a laid-back, self-sufficient atmosphere with a diversity of guests from around the globe. Our neighborhood is diverse, sometimes lively, and always walkable to all that Burlington has to offer. All amenities are shared, and we have free Gigabit WiFi are shared ;)

Because this is a shared space you can contact me and I will let you know just what is happening in the time frame you request. If your party takes at least 5 of the bunks I can close down the listing so it becomes private space for you and yours, unless someone else has already spoken for a bunk!
