This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a renovated dependency or a newly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it situated on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old hardwood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows, and doors exude a special warmth, character, and charm that is very difficult to achieve in new construction. The exterior copper roof and guttering provide additional warmth and character. It`s the real deal!
*If needing early check-in or late check-out please DO NOT ask until the day before check-in at earliest due possible last minute rentals. If you absolutely NEED it, I would suggest renting the night prior*
*Pet Policy: Only Small Pets under 25 pounds (maximum of 2) allowed with prior written approval ($200 non-refundable fee per pet).Must have authorization prior to reservation.*

Property was comfortable and location was perfect. Absolutely everything is within walking distance, and despite having a parking spot...next time I'll leave the car home. Can't wait to come back!
Everything was absolutely lovely! A great home away from home for a few days. Great location, great amenities- everything we needed and more was included, it felt peaceful and secluded for the location. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who asked!
Great place to stay! The staff was wonderful, friendly, and welcoming. Everything was very clean, and the location was excellent. Our unit was well-equipped with all that we needed, and the comfortable beds made our stay even more enjoyable.The only thing I would have changed is knowing the exact location of our unit ahead of time. While the courtyard was beautiful and a great feature of the property, our unit required us to walk across the parking area to access it, so we didn't end up using it as much as we would have liked.Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend staying here.
Clean, well stocked and organized. Didn’t love the spiral staircase, but it was as shown. Heat on the first floor wasn’t great, but most times of the year, not an issue

I wish you would have said something as the two mini-split units on the first floor were installed to offer extra heat downstairs and can run you out if adjusted properly. Not sure if they were not set correctly or what, would have been happy to help. Jamie
Thank you for your 5 star review. Cozy, charming and only a block to King St—we’re glad you enjoyed your stay.
