Perfect for our hometown visit

The Panda House was a perfect choice for our stay. Only a mile from all our in-town destinations, and only a few miles from most other necessities (grocery, food, restaurants). Will be our go to here on out.

The host was wonderful, welcoming and accommodating. The neighborhood was quiet. I stayed by myself so I wish the basement stairwell wasn't completely open and/or some kind of security system. But I loved the keyless entry and curb appeal.

I stayed at this property while attending finishing school for the union, and I couldn’t have been more impressed. The week prior, I stayed at a different hotel and was very disappointed with the outdated facility and lack of cleanliness. This property was the exact opposite—extremely clean, well taken care of, and clearly managed with pride.The owners were wonderful to work with—friendly, responsive, and very communicative. I also felt safe, which made it easy to relax and sleep well, and I appreciated not having to worry about critters or surprises when I got home.I will absolutely be back and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and worry-free stay.
