Came here with a group of friends to go hiking around the area. We only stayed one night, but it was enjoyable. Very clean, instructions were very thorough. Will likely book again in the future.
Clean and quiet area, nicely renovated, well stocked kitchen, and fairly comfortable beds, though no blackout blinds in the bedrooms unfortunately. We felt the couch could have used some throw pillows and/or a throw blanket, along with a rug in the living room for coziness, as the floors were quite cold. Some art would also help add some warmth to the white walls, but maybe that’s on the way! We also noticed it -was a bit strange to not have any windows in the main areas of the suite, and it felt odd to be asked to strip the bed/gather all the laundry, and take out the garbage in addition to the cleaning fee, but we thought the snack basket was a nice touch, and appreciated the use of a nice big screen smart tv. There were board games provided as well which was nice. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and would consider staying again in the future. Thanks so much!
