Aiken downtown
A short walk to Aiken Alley, very clean and comfortable. Mostly just needed a bed and shower, did not use kitchen or other amenities. Exactly as listed.

Lots of Character
This home has lots of character. Lots of windows and a good heater. The kitchen has plenty of counter space.I came in late on my first night and could not use the key pad - it was too dark....porch light not on. Plus, I had not received the code. There appears to be communication issues between Vrbo USA and Vrbo Canada. I got in the next day. No email information had been shared. Two more days passed before property owner responded with the information. Vrbo had been trying to contact him during these days.Once the owner and I talked together, his support was very good.
