Thank you so much for your stay and review, Ben! We're happy to hear you were able to enjoy time with old friends in Williamsburg and we'd love to be part of any future meet ups!
Mackenzie was an excellent host, gave great entry instructions, and was very welcoming. The accommodation was very modern yet historical at the same time. We loved our short yet very relaxing stay at her place! Would stay there again for a quick getaway, thank you so much!

Jessie - we greatly appreciate you staying with us for the weekend and I personally thank you for taking the time to review. I'm happy to hear the space was accommodating and the location was convenient!
We had a great stay. Easy entry and clear instructions. We had everything we needed for our stay. The host was very accommodating when the weather stranded us and we needed to stay another night. We would stay again

What a great review, Peg! Thank you so much! We really take pride in our experience, cleanliness, and comfort of the space (beds, couches, etc). So, we appreciate your comments. Congrats on the wedding and we hope to see you again!
Great location, very clean and nice furnishings. Little mix up at check in but host was super responsive and resolved issue quickly. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you so much for your stay, Colby! We appreciated the note about the door lock as well, we've already addressed it. We hope to see you again if you're back in the Williamsburg area!
Wince we got through the 2 impossible locks, we were thrilled with the accommodations! Furniture, kitchen equipment and bathrooms were quite nice. I would like to make some suggestions. First, make the locks simpler. To get into. The “original booking number is confusing,

Thank you for reviewing your stay, Pam! We are happy the place was up to par and it sounds like you had a great time. On the locks, we do the phone number of the person who booked because its typically easier for guests to remember versus an assigned 4 digit code, but we appreciate your perspective. We can update the information to hopefully make it more clear. We hope to see you again when you're back in the area!
