We're so happy to hear that everything met your expectations. Keeping the space clean and welcoming is always our priority, and it's great to know you found it easily. We'd love to have you back anytime. Safe travels
The place is very clean and one of the comfiest beds. there’s a lot of good restaurants to walk to. I had some trouble with the door when I first got there, Andrea was very fast to respond, and in a couple minutes problem solved. Would definitely stay here again
The tub needs a non slick matt. Also toilet paper is super cheap!!

The kitchen area was lovely. The sleeping area was nice and bed was comfy. The tv did not work when we got there. Matt came and it worked but froze often. The bathroom needs work. The tub is dangerous. Someone can break their neck. We put a towel on the tub floor when we showered so we didn’t fall. There isn’t really a place for your dog to do their business. Plenty of eats around there though. Won’t be going back
