I never like staying anywhere except my very own house and I always bring cleaning and sanitizing products. I can honestly say that this place far exceeded anything I could have ever imagined. I didn't need to do a thing. It was just like being home. Everything you can imagine was provided for and more. The minute we walked in the fragrance was clean and inviting. I know you will feel the exact same way.

This is our second time staying here. We love how quiet it is! It’s in a nice location—not too far away from the shops, restaurants, and LU campus to visit our daughter. Everything was clean, towels fluffy, beds comfy. The water and snacks were a nice touch! Nice appliances in the kitchen. Love the lights that turn on with motion on steps and near coffee maker! The only thing we couldn’t find was pot holders. We used dish towels which worked fine though. We will likely be staying here again in the future. Thank you!!

Ryan was very responsive but I had to cancel the third night I had originally booked. He refunded my money but I received a not so nice message about putting him in a different position by not being able to rent the unit! I didn’t understand because that left it available for Friday and Saturday which last I looked it was booked.
