The unit was immaculate. We had everything we needed. It is walking distance to everywhere downtown, so we never drove our car during our stay. We will stay here again on our next visit.
We truly enjoyed the property and the town. The property had everything we needed and more. Very clean, convenient location, easy parking, comfortable bed, quiet. It was just perfect!
I would stay here again.
This place is gorgeous! The bed was comfy and even though it is much grander than my own home I felt cozy and special all at the same time. Don't hesitate if you want to book a luxurious place close to downtown.

Monique was a very respectful and welcomed guest. I’m excited for her return. She is always welcome.
My wife and I stayed for a few days. We love downtown Nevada City and you really can’t be any closer with this stay. So convenient to be able to pop in and out while enjoying all of what downtown has to offer. Apartment was very clean and new, great kitchen all new appliances.
This place was great ! Right in the heart of town ! Once you are parked, everything is within walking distance.
It was quiet in the later evenings even tho it was located near bars with live music. Clean and great Decor !
The apartment is new, clean, has everything you need. It’s right downtown and walkable to everything Nevada City has to offer. John the owner is friendly and fun to talk to. We will definitely be back.
This was an absolutely perfect stay! It looks exactly like the pictures. It is perfectly located - we walked everywhere. Very clean and modern. Stocked with everything you could need. The ck in process was super easy and was able to get ahold of the owner anytime needed. We honestly can’t wait to go back.

This was our second time staying here. The location is great if you just want to step out into downtown. However, the upstairs neighbors had a very loud party the first night we stayed that lasted until 2am. In addition, the security deposit is excessive. They charge your card 1500$ when you book and it took 2 weeks after we left to get the refund. So they held a security deposit for 3 months in advance from when we booked and then a refund onto the credit card is not ideal. Do either I eat the interest or I pay it up front and the later have a negative balance. Not worth it
