This place is an absolute gem—fun, unique, and full of personality. From the eye-catching exterior to all the thoughtful little details inside, it’s clear a lot of care went into creating such a memorable space.Fong was outstanding to work with. Communication was prompt, professional, and genuinely helpful every step of the way. Truly top-tier hospitality.Just a quick note for future guests (not a negative at all): the second bathroom is located downstairs off the laundry room. I initially missed that in the listing and was briefly confused, but it wasn’t an issue once I figured it out.The location couldn’t be better—close enough to downtown for an easy, inexpensive Lyft ride, yet tucked away in an area that feels very safe and relaxed.For locals especially, this is the perfect staycation spot. Great vibes, great experience—I’d absolutely stay here again.
