After we climbed all the stairs to the listing (it was on the 3rd floor), we were delighted to find it exactly as pictured! It was very clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect for the downtown entertainments that we had planned.

One of the cleanest rentals I have ever stayed in. The bed was more comfortable than my bed at home! There was supposed to be an air mattress in the closet and it wasn’t, I messaged Ken and within 5 minutes he brought it to our door and offered to set it up for us. My only suggestion would be supply a small amount of ziploc bags, foil, plastic wrap…things of that nature. There are 40 indoor stairs getting up there. Try the owners restaurant on the first floor too, absolutely amazing!!
