We came in for a funeral and this place was great. It was well stocked above and beyond what we expected. Everything worked and was clean. I would recommend it to all my friends. Three bedrooms are upstairs, good excersise! The parking was tight, but there is a small driveway which let us move our car off the steet.

This is THE ONE. This home was absolutely perfect in every way. We haven't ever been to Danville VA before, but we will definitely be coming back to stay at this home. Our host was very accommodating, having snacks for us when we checked in, 2 different coffee pots to use ( a pod type and carafe type), beautiful rooms, books, bord games, multiple televisions, all nestled on the most beautiful street! Our super host was easy to contact and ask questions. She worked with us on checking out late as well, and we are very appreciative. We will come visit this home again!
