Easy to find, parking ample on side street, convenient location for access to town. Stay was comfortable with very little noise from Broadway, surprisingly. Kitchen, bath, and bedroom were very clean and well-appointed. Couldn’t get the coffee maker to work, but don’t care for Keurig coffee anyway due to the plastic.

Meticulously clean, perfectly located, cozy cottage

From the moment I checked in to the moment I left, I felt like I was in my home away from home. The home was meticulously clean, cozy, perfectly located, and had all of the necessities including toiletries and kitchen needs you could possibly need for a week-long stay. The only challenge was street parking.
