Cute and cozy. Very clean. This home had everything we needed. I would suggest maybe a bench at top of stair to sit and take shoes off and on. Very comfortable.

About the host

Hosted by Erin

Host profile image
Work hard, Play hard!
I love all things outdoors, wakeboard, snowboard, longboard, hiking, climbing, surfing, snorkeling, paddle boarding, biking, golfing, frisbee golf and up to try something new.
My husband and I enjoy renovating properties and transforming spaces.
We love to travel, especially to Hawaii and found vacation rentals to be welcoming and feel like home away from home.
We decided to start hosting to share those same feelings for family, friends and friends of friends and family, our Ohana.

Why they chose this property

We purchased the building for my husband, Colt, to open his own tattoo shop. When we were hunting for a building and came across this one, we ended up seeing the upstairs apartment first and absolutely fell in LOVE with the original hardwood floors, oversized trim and charm of the older building. We thought it would be a great space for traveling tattooers, our friends and family who come to visit.
