We had a great stay! The room was very clean, well stocked with everything we needed, and parking was easy and convenient. The host was friendly, responsive, and always quick to answer any questions we had. We also felt very safe and comfortable throughout our stay. A special shoutout for the makeup removal wipes—they were an unexpected but much-appreciated touch and a total lifesaver! We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others visiting the area.

We had a great stay here, loved being steps away from the farmers market and close to a few restaurants-- parking was a plus! Ken returned our call quickly when we had questions. The bathroom needed a little extra scrubbing on the walls/baseboards, but overall the space was very clean and well cared for.
