The kitchen offers elegant granite countertops and ample seating with six stylish bar stools, creating a comfortable space to gather with friends and family while meals are being prepared.

One of the bedrooms features a desk for guests who need to work during their stay. Nestled between the two bedrooms is a totally updated full bathroom, complete with a tub/shower combo.

It features a second full kitchen with fresh new cabinets and stunning granite counters, open to a cozy dining area for four. The additional living room is the perfect spot to relax, with a brand new queen-size pull-out Tempur-Pedic sofa for extra comfort.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Wonderful place to stay. The two seperate floors with seperate spaces (two kitchens, two sitting areas) makes it great for two families. Beds were especially comfy and place was well stocked with kitchen needs. Plenty of space. We would definitely return.
