Staying at any of the Oak shade suites & house is always a good experience. Cleanliness of bathroom could’ve used some improvement. Not sure what was on the surface of the tub. Extra blanket had large burn hole. Replacing it would be good. I would definitely stay again. Very comfortable bed. Excellent location. Thank you so much.

This property is a wonderful place for a couple. The king sized bed is so comfortable. The location is so quiet and felt very safe. We rode our bikes to the beach and walked to dinner. The nearest restaurant is about a half mile away, but it was an easy walk and better yet on a bike. We would definitely book this property again.

Disappointing

The property is in need of considerable updating. It shows its age. The online pictures do not match actual furniture. Also, it was not as clean as it should have been, The bed sheets were either not cleaned or were stained. The floor is some type of cement mixture which was rough and thus impossible to clean. It seemed like a patio surface. The bathroom exhaust fan is caked with black dust and the light was burnt out. Finally, they supplied a Roku television which greatly limits your ability to watch local and national channels without creating a Roku account.

This studio is in a prime location! We easily walked to Government and Washington streets for shopping and eating. So many fun places!! AND we walked to the beach. It’s a block away. The beach has chair rentals that Amare very cheap! The studio itself IWas perfect for just the two of us. So cozy and cute! The outside patio area was very relaxing as well. Loved our stay!

Great location

The location, booking, communication were all great. The description of the space was accurate. The problem was the cleanliness of the room and property. Also we needed more towels and the towels that were there smelled mildewed, like they had been left wet in the washer for too long.

We loved our stay at this property. The location was absolutely perfect for easy beach and town access. The bed was comfortable and the place had everything needed for a long weekend trip. The place is nicely decorated, very clean, and the communication was very good. Couldn't have asked for more and will book again if in the area.

Peaceful relaxing area

We thought your king suite was great. Comfortable with just enough space for us and our little dog. Only suggestion I have is a larger mini fridge. We had a fabulous time in the downtown area. Hope to see you again soon.

Great place to stay!

We really enjoyed our stay in The King’s Suite. Very clean, cozy and close in location to downtown Ocean Springs and the beach. Everything is within walking distance. Ocean Springs has a lot of beautiful old historic homes and businesses. Our host Chris was very nice and great with communication. Highly recommend staying here if you visit Ocean Springs.

Quaint and quiet

Really enjoyed the little town of Ocean Springs. The walkability for the location of the cottage was perfect. My only negative to keep me from giving an overall five star rating is that the room was over perfumed with a plug-in scent deodorizer- it was just too overwhelming.

Great last minute trip

We booked last minute to come stay for birth of our granddaughter in Ocean Springs. Chris the host was super helpful in assisting with my booking. Very clean and super comfortable furnishings, met our needs perfectly. We work remotely and WiFi was worked well. Location is perfect. We walked each morning for exercise, stopping at a local bistro for breakfast each day. Will definitely be back!
