This was a lovely place! Wonderful linens, mattress and pillows with extras blankets for beds and couches. Fully stocked kitchen and bathroom. Quaint older home which has beautifully updated. Bonus was the piano that I enjoyed playing. Hosts left gift of muffins, cookies and a gift card to a local coffee shop, which was very thoughtful. Water was available in the fridge. I had a minor glitch with the door locking and hosts were immediately available to help. This was a perfect place to stay to visit family in town. This will be my new place to rent instead of staying in a hotel. Highly recommend. Hosts were great at communicating before and after my stay.
