My family stayed for 8 weeks and it was a very pleasant stay.The management team was quick to communicate and answer our questions. The check-in and check-out process was smooth. I will definitely pick this property when my family visits again.

Great home
House is in a great location close to U of U. Very easy walk to Rice-Eccles Stadium. The house was very comfortable and clean. Beds were great, but could have used some softer pillows. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks Drew.
