Great Place Overall

This home is comfortable and affordable. The owner responded very quickly to a couple of questions/concerns. It was a great location for us visiting with family and doing a little sight-seeing. The whole place was clean overall, but the main bathroom could use a full deep cleaning.

better than a bachelor's pad

It is centrally located, nice decor and furnishings, old kitchen cookware, needs attention to cleaning details(mildew on shower curtain, carpet leaving dirt on socks, dust on walls and fixtures).

Relaxing and Great Amenities!

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this comfortable condo. Great location for shopping and getting to our appointments. The kitchen was wonderful for cooking family meals (lots of kitchen utensils, appliances, etc) and the furniture and beds were comfortable. It was an easy place to relax and we would definitely stay here again. Also, very easy communication with owner when we unexpectedly needed to extend our stay. Thank you for your hospitality!
