Such a cute space. We were able to walk to local restaurants and get around easily. Ryan was quick to communicate, and the place was spotless.

I stayed a week during August. The good:Nicely laid out. Quiet location. Nice decor. central location. Mop / bucket, vac, broom in unit. Nice bed and bed pillows. close to restaurants and coffee and grocery store. Nice neighborhood. Excellent air conditioning The Bad:Filthy vinyl floors. Turned my feet black. Because of the available mop I was able to wash the floors. Sheets are low quality. Pro tips to host:A toaster or toaster oven would be really nice. shower paint is peeling. Adding some hooks in the bedroom and at the entry would be nice, as would some ice trays. Whoever cleans needs to wash the vinyl floors. Check-in was a headache. I never got instructions and operator wasn't too sharp. Check for burned out light bulbs

We are glad to hear that the stay was mostly a pleasurable one for you. We have addressed your cleaning concerns with the team and appreciate your suggestions. Regarding check in, our records show the initial form link had a technical issue, but our team provided your unit number and door code via text within minutes of your call that evening and got you checked into the unit as soon as we were notified of the issue. Thank you for staying with us and hope you have many safe travels.

Loved it. End unit on second floor. Very quiet neighborhood. You’d barely know there were neighbors. The mattress was very comfortable. Would recommend. The area has a lot of character with lovely buildings.
