Good for a short stay

The property was clean and the check in details shared were easy to follow. Additional details on parking and check out information would have been helpful. The description should note that it is located on the 2nd floor and that the outdoor area is accessed separate from the main living area. Overall it was a good spot for a short stay.

Completely furnished for those who want to cook. Plenty of hot water and clean beds. Comfortable seating. Anna was wonderful to work with. The reason for a 4, not a 5, was the stairs. Safe railing which I use at all times, but steep and narrow. If you’re agile, no problem at all :)

Concert goers

we needed a one night overnight in order to attend a local concert. 4 adults in our party over age 50. this provided us a comfy place with plenty of room to spread out before and after the concert. the kitchen was well equipped, and we could have made our own supper and breakfast. we chose to eat out. we could bring home leftovers unlike a hotel room. i would stay again if we ever come back to the area.

Clean

Was pretty alright. Listing doesn’t state that it is a shared space (apartment). Shower took a minute to figure out. Overall not bad, and very clean. Only thing is the parking instructions state one thing, but the host texted us different instructions.
