The loft was amazing, we had family in town and this was the perfect place to host them, so easy to walk around downtown and the property was clean, well equipped and had everything you need for a relaxing getaway.

Thank you for such a kind review! We're glad you enjoyed your time at the loft and look forward to hosting you again in the future!
Absolutely beautiful apartment, location is perfect for exploring Morganton, and the property manager / owner were stellar. 10/10 would book again. P.S. interior of the apartment is something out of a magazine, it’s literally perfect.
Great space with thoughtful details throughout. Downtown location perfect for walking around, visiting breweries, restaurants and shopping. Perfect getaway.
This is my favorite spot in Morganton and my second stay and I will be back!
This is such a beautiful, open and comfortable space right in the heart of downtown Morganton. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well-equipped. We love this place so much and will definitely be back!
