I turned my basement into my snake room as well. For me, it works out excellently. It has all the benefits...excellent climate (not too hot in summer, not too cool in winter) but cool enough for brumation. Windows for natural light cycles, a wash basin, a locking door, etc.

I highly recommend using the basement. To make it more comfortable, I simply added some sheet rock, bamboo type decor, plants, and then added some nice cages which are set up very nice for show pieces. The room is easy to work in, easy to clean, and easy to hang in.

Just do the necessary things that are needed and you will love it!
