Charming Home

We recently took our daughter and friends to visit UM and discovered this property after learning that the hotels on campus were sold out. What a find!! It was in walking distance of everything- the campus and all of the cute shops and restaurants. It was extremely clean and well thought out. We would definitely stay here again!
