Joe was so welcoming and a wealth of historic knowledge! We could spend a week here and still not see everything! The bed was comfy, the couch was relaxing, the town square was charming, and this property was an amazing vibe! Staying here is an experience.
Absolutely loved staying at this property. Probably one of the most unique places we’ve ever stayed. Everything was totally dialed in for us and working with the property manager was super clear and direct. Would definitely stay here again.
We were welcomed by the owner upon arrival. He took time to show us around and answer our questions. The apartment was very interesting and memorable! We had a great weekend'
We had a wonderful stay at the property. The property itself is absolutely stunning! The host has done an incredible job preserving its character while offering modern convenience. We cannot wait to stay here again!

Karen and her guests were just great. They were very respectful of the property and left the apartment clean and organized
They are always welcome back here
Thanks, Joe
This place was insane (in a good way) my only complaint is how many stairs there are but how else are you supposed to get up there? lol truly a unique experience. I felt like every time I looked around I saw something new.
This is the second time we've stayed at this magical place. The location is perfect on main street in the town square. The square has tons of new places to visit. The apartment fills you with great vibes by being surrounded with all the fun and history.
This Penthouse apt exceeded my expectations. The host,Joe, met us at apt and got us checked in. He told us a little history of the building, and was very accommodating. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It is centrally located in downtown area within walking distance of restaurants, gas station, bakery and ice cream shop on the ground floor. We hope to make it back here again one day when we can stay longer, 100% enjoyed our stay!
We loved our overnight stay! It was to have time alone together and there was so many unique items and conversation pieces in the room it kept us occupied/talking for hours. Allowed us to leave work behind and enjoy our time. The owner is super as well!
This place is insane! I mean WONDERFULLY insane...LOVED it!! Fully stocked, incredibly spacious, and like staying in a museum. Location is perfect! Only potential drawback (for some) might be the steps to the top floor. Host says 59, but I only counted 48...but nevertheless, that could be a problem for some guests (but wasn't for me). If you're in the Fayetteville area, this is a must stay!
Fantastic stay at The Pythian Building penthouse. Huge space and perfect location. Joe was a fabulous host and facilitated a pleasant experience and delightful stay!!!
If eclectic is your style, this is your place. A surprise in every corner. If you are sensitive to dust maybe reconsider. Host is what you would expect in such an imaganative space.
We had an amazing time! It was a surprise location for my husband. Joe, our host, was so great to contribute to the "gotcha" moment. It's such a unique set up...definitely one of a kind! We also found plenty to do in the area - a tour of the Jack Daniels distillery, wine tasting, great food and a hike to a gorgeous waterfall. Make sure to try the first floor ice cream parlor during your stay! Loved it!!
