Liked: Cleanliness
Everything was very clean. Cons first. Some trim was not maintenanced well but still very acceptable. There were 2 flights of slanted steps so if you cannot climb, this would not be the place for you. Those were the only negatives, which the pros way over-exceeded those things.The beds were comfy. Lots of extras like spices, teas, coffees, creamers, butter, distilled water, toiletries, first aid kit, name brand cleaners, beautiful stand or sit desk with charger, lots of blankets, cooking essentials, air fresheners, apron, Netflix, etc.Super easy check-in. Nestled between 2 churches. Parking in front of the house on the street was easy. I would highly recommend and would stay again. Well taken cared of loft.Thanks for your hospitality!
