If there was a 5 PLUS star rating - I'd pick that to describe the incredible experience of this stay. The property - location - hospitality - and amenities are NEXT LEVEL.

Fabulous spring get away
This property exceeded all expectations. It is conveniently located to restaurants and shops and just a short 15 minute walk to campus. I liked being just a little bit away from the heart of campus activity. The host communicated quickly with excellent directions and recommendations. The main room is very cozy with tons of natural light. It has a modern kitchen loaded with conveniences, a fantastic bathroom and show, and very comfortable beds. It comes with a parking pass for a garage less than 5 minutes away but we never used our car. Everything was walkable. The beds were extremely comfortable. Already planning a return trip. I would give it 10 stars if possible.
