Very pleasant week long stay. ProsSuper conveniently located, can walk to many restaurants/barsOwners are very responsive Beds are comfortable Bonus tiny bedroom (only has a twin bed, no closet)Ice maker in freezerSpacious living areasWell kept Great parking Home has many original historic touchesCons Bathrooms are very smallMinimal storage in bedrooms (closets only have hooks)No direct access to house from driveway Minimal window coveringsWe did not find the gas station next door to be an issue. I would suggest taking earplugs and sleep masks. I would not recommend more than 4 people for more than a long weekend due to the bathrooms.

I only wish we had more time! Although we spent most of our time walking and exploring the very accessible town, our evenings were spent enjoying the comfortable and eclectically decorated home. I highly recommend this "GEM" for your stay in Geneva.

Great Downtown Property!

We were in town for a wedding at the Cracker Factory and this was ideally located for that! We had easy access to some downtown shops with a nice relaxing house to stay at. The kitchen was a delight and the bedrooms could have slept a lot more that we had. I would definitely rent this again!
