Perfect for a wedding weekend

Our daughter was getting married and we needed a place to stay in Auburn. It worked out perfect for her to get ready before the wedding and was conveniently located near her hair stylist. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had what we needed. And the porch was nice for drinking my morning coffee and enjoying the neighborhood.

This is our second stay, and would definitely come back. I've had to stay elsewhere in auburn, and was looking forward to coming back to this location. Spacious, and comfortable. Arrived on hot summer day, ACs turned on, very comfortable as we got into place. Best stocked rental I've ever been in. All little details covered.Lots of pans and supplies for cooking. Laundry available. Host was very accommodating to some of our special needs, also communicated back quickly. I look forward to our next stay here.

Accommodating

Booked the house for a surprise anniversary present to my parents. They live in the area but not enough room at their house for the whole family. The house fit the needs of our group including the toddler with a baby gate, high chair & pack ‘n play. We had plenty of room and never felt like we were on top of each other. We enjoyed the provided entertainment from the tv to the card games to the selection of kids books for the little one. Parking was easy and the house was close to town if we needed anything. I reached out to the owner multiple times and she was very accommodating!!

Great stay, would repeat!

My wife and I spent a lovely Labor Day weekend in this quaint apartment on the second story of a 19th-century house. The apartment was larger than anticipated, spotless, and well-equipped. Check-in was a breeze, and Dene was a great communicator and very accommodating giving us great recommendations for cycling routes and restaurants. I would stay here again if visiting the region! Thank you Dene for being such a great host!

This was a great location if you are looking to stay in the FingerLakes region. Dene was great to work with. Excellent communication. Check in was a breeze. The place was much larger than we respected and super clean. It was easy to get around town from this location. The beds were very comfortable too. Looking forward to staying there again sometime.

Good space

This was our first trip to the Finger Lakes. We wanted a place to allow us to go to a variety of lakes. This fit the bill. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. I appreciated having a kitchen to cook breakfast before we headed out daily on our excursions. The bed was also comfortable which is not always the case. The location is in near downtown Auburn. Convenient.

Great Location to Visit Auburn and Skaneateles

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend in July to attend the Skaneateles Antique and Classic Boat show. Dene's apartment is on the second floor of a late 19th century house with lots of character. The check-in instructions were clear and concise and we had no trouble finding the property or where to park. The kitchen was well equipped for us to cook breakfast each morning. We were especially excited to find a dish pan under the kitchen sink and nightlights around the apartment (as these features have been missing in other properties we rented). The bedroom located off the kitchen had the most comfortable mattress too. The tenants downstairs were quiet and we did not hear them during our stay. If we are in the area again, we would not hestiate to stay here again! Thanks Dene!

About the host

Hosted by Mabelle Villahermoso

Host profile image
This is the town I was born in and where my relatives still live. I was raised in a nearby and spent my teen years here. I am adventurous and love to travel to new places for the people, the food and the different cultures. I particularly love the Latin cultures and central and South America.

Why they chose this property

I was visiting this area because my parents were elderly. This building was empty but I felt I could visualize a Christmas tree in the front window. After I purchased it I did have that tree in the front window my first Christmas.

What makes this property unique

I love porches. Those lazy summer evenings and the aromatic fall days on a porch are so relaxing. I love to walk and Historic Downtown Auburn area is close and a perfect place to wander.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
