Good location, plenty of room, needs some updates.
The property was in a convenient location and had plenty of room as advertised. The finishes and decor were good but a little outdated. The overall cleanliness was good, but some of the supplies in supplies in the bath (bath wash, soap) were out. No regular coffee, and bed sheets and towels left in the washer, and yet property required a $200 cleaning fee.

I wish that the back deck and patio area were better. There are cracked chairs. It really would not take much.to make it more inviting.Coffee pot was not clean. Other than that it was great! Love how close we were to downtown.

Perfect for Us!
This lovely and comfortable home suited our sibling reunion perfectly. The chef’s kitchen/spacious DR was ideal for our “private chef” evening and there was lots of opportunity to catch up in the cozy LR. Our off-street parking was a plus!

Just not ready for guests
The whole stay just needed more attention. The patio, deck and bathroom were dirty. All the patio furniture was broken and dirty. All the mattresses were on the floor, no bed frames . The dishwasher leaked, the oven didn’t work. It just wasn’t fully ready for guests. The manager was easy to communicate with but for the nightly rate the house should have been ready to welcome us.

GREAT STAY MSOE Graduation at it's best!!
This was easy to find, great space for everyone, loved the outdoor space, great location to shops, stores, restaurants, etc. Although there was a public bus stop (which is great for getting around the city without worrying about parking :)) and an upstairs unit, it was SO quit!!! We were super impressed by this! The owners were great to work with and always responded quickly! We definitely recommend this stay!

Loved our stay.
We all throughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Plenty of room for the whole group. The moment we walked in we all felt comfortable. Lots of light and open spaces. Extremely clean. They thought of everything, from cotton buds to spices in the kitchen. Had a nice selection of teas to choose from. Laundry room was fully stocked for guests use. Short walk to a lovely coffee shop. Bus stop right out front of house. Very close to lakeshore, walking distance. We were very fortunate to have found such a nice property. It is well looked after.

Very nice, clean and comfortable and good value!
Property is very nice and the use of one stall of the 2-stall garage was nice, but it's very tight for driver to get in and out, so keep that in mind if elderly. Also keep in mind this is an old home and while it has been nicely renovated and updated, it has old bones so has some things that go with an old home, like a few drafty windows and cold floors, especially in the basement which is just something that comes with what you'd expect of an old home. Amenities are all very comfortable, decent beds, and furniture throughout, showers and bathrooms both work well. Kitchen is nice and well appointed. Nice refrigerator with in-door ice and water dispenser. Location is great, we drove everywhere due to cold and inclement weather, but could easily and safely walk a few blocks to some of the shops, bars and restaurants. Would highly consider renting here again.
