Hello Amy, we are glad you enjoyed your stay and the city! We hope to see you staying again soon with us!
Great property. About the size of a hotel room, but with an added garage. Property on ground level. Very clean. Easy check-in/check-out. Communication was excellent. Would stay again.

It was a pleasure hosting you Timothy! We are happy you had a great stay and would love to host you again!
The Harbo studio was cute and very clean. We loved the accommodations for our Pug. However, it got very cold in the room, so we were supplied with a space heater. It did fine once we got in and turned it on, but when we arrived back after a chilly day, it was 65 or less since the heater can't be left on unattended.

Hello Timothy, thank you for your feedback, we actually installed a brand new mini split to make sure your next stay is more comfortable, it was a pleasure hosting you!
Nice condo and location. Everything was just as advertised. The shower was great and the garage parking is a plus. It was also tastefully decorated. We only have 2 suggestions for improvement. The bed is a little too firm and would benefit having a memory foam top and the blinds could be better if room darkening. The room is very bright at 6am. Probably not an issue in the winter when the sun never shines in MI.

Thank you so much for your feedback Dan! We truly appreciate it. We will make sure to forward it to management, and we hope to host you again soon!
Stop looking and just book this place! Not only was it extremely reasonable price wise (including the extra fees), the place is immaculately clean, has a private attached garage that makes unloading super easy, a washer and dryer, and everything you could possibly need during your stay! Beach gear galore, fully stocked toiletries in the bathroom, baby gear, pet supplies if you have pets and even fresh picked flowers on arrival! Literally all you need is your toothbrush to stay at this place! It’s also only a one minute walk to the grocery. The memory foam bed is super comfy. The one and only thing I could think of that it could use is a full length mirror on the back of the bathroom door. Lol We will be staying here again next time we come back to Traverse City! FIVE STARS FOR SURE!
