Space has been seen before and is lovely.... Unfortunately our stay didn't work out because of an adjacent building structure compromise, but host was quick to help us get a refund from VRBO and quick to respond. I would recommend this host and property

Pretty sure the only words I have to describe this loft is wow, as that is exactly what we said when we arrived. The location couldn’t be any better as it's right in the heart of the town square. The furnishings, bedding, and finishes were all incredible! The bathroom is huge, shower is great, and it's just an amazing place to stay. I would have given this more stars if I could, highly recommend staying here! This is a really neat loft in an excellent location. All communications were great as well. Can't wait to return and stay there again!
