Check in/out process was super easy to do. The place was clean, comfortable, and very beautiful, super functional for what we wanted. The host was great at communicating and offering recommendations. Location was ideal for us and right outside of downtown, easy commute to everything we wanted to see. Great coffee, ice cream, and food at Smokey Row right around the corner!!
