The host, Mr. Ross went above and beyond making sure we knew where everything was in the VRBO and offered helpful suggestions for local restaurants. The property is in a nice location and the condo is comfortable, yet beautifully maintained. I would definitely stay here again.

We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for being our guests!
This is an absolutely beautiful and comfortable home. The location was ideal for us and street parking was available. This is one of the most user friendly home I have stayed in. The whole home is updated with lighting and flooring, wall treatments, etc., yet it has a very warm feeling from the vintage, classis decor. The beds were very comfortable, the giant couch in the front room is AMAZING! We had family over visiting a few times and never felt cramped. I highly recommend this home. The property manager lives on site and that brought us comfort.

It was such a pleasure having your family and you as our guests. We strive to make our condos feel comfortable & homey. So your comments are greatly appreciated. Thank you for being our guests!
Property is clean well maintained. Quite neighborhood in the evenings. Garage parking for 1 vehicle was great bonus, no searching for steet parking after a busy day. Property manager was great and even helped make sure we received a ups delivery we needed during our stay.a

Great stay. Only issue is that above floor is creaky and could hear the tenants above.

Thank you for being our guests. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay. The building was completely rehabbed from top to bottom in 2007 including the hardwood floors.
Our stay was really peaceful and pleasant. Ross was a great host, and the property was just what we needed for our family. The location is convenient and the neighborhood is very nice and fun to walk in. I would definitely stay here again!
