The apartment was very clean and well stocked. It was a perfect location to walk to the downtown and not too far a drive from Starved Rock. We would definitely stay here again if we come back.

This was a perfectly located property, within walking distance to shops and restaurants. Great location for easy drives to the best hiking. Carmen really takes good care to make you feel welcome. She has everything you need and added a nice welcome basket, with a kind note attached. Thank you Carmen!!!

This property was perfect for our weekend getaway. Clean, well stocked, and very cozy. Bonus, it's walking distance to some great restaurants, shops, and parks. The host was very communicative and responded to questions within minutes. All we wanted was a quiet place away from the kids to reconnect, watch TV, and enjoy some us time. This little place exceeded expectations.

We really enjoyed the location. We spent time hiking in the parks, then walked to downtown in the evening. We were even able to enjoy some music in the park. While the living area was small, it was perfect for the three of us. The owner was also very nice and left us some treats.

The outside didn't appear like what the listing makes it look like, but everything inside was clean and nice. A good overall visit.

I wasn’t sure what to expect but Ottawa did not disappoint and we had such a stellar stay at this VRBO apartment! The rental was clean and every detail thought through to make our stay the best it could be. Carmen was very detailed and timely with all instructions and even stopped by to meet us (by coincidence). . We would totally stay here again! Also…starved rock was worth the walk!

This apartment had everything we needed! Carmen initiated communication and worked to customize our stay. It was raining so we didn’t get to enjoy the cute outdoor area, but the bed was huge and comfy and the kitchen was perfectly appointed. My favorite was the gorgeous bathroom with a large shower and thoughtful touches like Q-tips or other items a traveler might have forgotten.

The place had a lot of charm, but there were some issues. The bathroom door would swell up on occasion and made it impossible to get out. But I appreciated how comfortable yhe property was. It had nice blankets and linens.

Thank you for your feedback, Jacqueline. I’m glad you enjoyed our property, I wish you had let me know about the bathroom door, as this issue was never brought to my attention. Had I known, I would have addressed it immediately. Guest comfort and safety are very important to us, and I appreciate you mentioning it so we can make sure it is taken care of for future guests.

Only issue we had was the tv audio didn’t work but Carmen had it fixed within 24 hours. Great location and clean property. The grill was a nice bonus. Thank you.
