My husband and I really enjoyed the location, and comfortable bed and linens. Cute kitchen suited our needs with exposed brick. Used the dining table to eat and to wrap presents!

We had a great stay at The Alcove. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described, with a cozy atmosphere and a very comfortable king bed. The location was perfect - an easy walk to King Street and plenty of great restaurants and coffee shops nearby.The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive throughout our stay. Their communication before and during the trip made everything simple, and they were especially helpful with our early arrival. They let us drop off our bags and even brought them to the unit for us, which we really appreciated. Overall, the place was well-kept, had all the essentials, and made for a smooth, enjoyable trip. We’d definitely stay here again.
