Great location and super comfy beds! Host was easy to communicate with and check in was a breeze. My only complaint (and it’s not even complaint… more, a slight inconvenience) was the extremely low water pressure in the primary bathroom. If you’re staying here and need to wash your hair, I suggest you opt for the hall shower so you can actually get the shampoo rinsed out. Again, it wasn’t a big deal for me to just use the other shower and the overall experience more than made up for it.
