Great location right in the heart of the downtown area. SNOB restaurant was rec by host and across the street. Great food.We had noise one night all night - seems like there are a lot of bachelorette parties in the city and they apparently go all night. Bring ear plugs…

Host promptly responded to questions prior to stay. The place was quaint, very clean and check-in with code was easy. As noted in description, bedroom and bath is on the upper level. Really appreciated a paid parking space as parking nearby was limited and expensive. It was a prime location and we could walk most everywhere we wanted to go. Would stay there again.

We loved our stay. The decor is lovely. We had tons of space to really spread out. There were plenty of towels, and the kitchen was well equipped. There was a shared laundry room with machines that would both wash and dry your laundry. No switching machines to dry. The property has a beautiful courtyard. The location is excellent, with loads of restaurants and sights in easy walking distance.

Location is great! Having only one bathroom which is upstairs is a little unhandy. Parking is a pretty good little walk which is also a negative. However, the great location makes up for a lot of the negatives.
