Lani was a very communicative host! We were impressed the amenities/extras included at the rental. I forgot my hairspray, and there was some available to use. There were several other things available that we don’t tend to see at other rentals. The linens were also very cozy! We loved how close to downtown the rental is, while being in a quiet and peaceful part of town. It was a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Lani Blakeslee

Host profile image
After purchase of this family owned property I lovingly restored every inch and acted as the designer as well as the contractor for the entire renovation which took 3 1/2 years. I made every design choice and decision which brought this home back to its former glory. I personally retsored the 63 double hung windows and 33 original doors. Once you stay with me you will see and feel the love, and feel loved in return....

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! Just north of the heart of downtown you have the convenience of being close to everything while having enough distance to have quiet nights to rest and staying in an unparaleled historic neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

Your on site host is always available to answer your questions and trouble shoot any unexpected needs or issues. The building has been recently and completely and lovingly restored with high end finishes and unexpected luxuries such as super fast Wifi, on demand (and filtered) hot water, a smart TV, soft close cabinetry, Hyatt Hotel luxury mattress and a brand new and reliable heating/cooling system you have autonomous control of.
