Place was great excellent and in a great location. The owner was very easy to communicate with and very helpful. The location is very convenient to the interstate and quite a few local bars nearby. No issues other than the yard looks like it could use some TLC. Would definitely look to stay again.

I thought the home was adequate for a couple of days of overnight stays. Seems to be more of a place for college age people to stay. Furniture and window coverings are out of date. Cleanliness of rooms could be addressed further.

The place was clean and cozy. The rooms are quite small, and there is only one small bathroom. There are two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs. Perhaps a better sizing or repositioning of some furniture would help. The china hutch in the dining room is not necessary at all and would make that room more navigable. The outside could benefit from some trimming and weed control. Location is decent and provides quick access to I-90, and makes it easy to navigate LaCrosse. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Clean, comfortable stay

Overall, the stay was comfortable. The shower was big and roomy. The washer and dryer left A LOT to be desired. They are both really old and need to be replaced. The washer smells moldy and the dryer sounds like a rocket ship. There was even a note on the dryer saying how loud it was. I didn't get a picture of it.Other than that, it was a comfortable stay.

It’s a comfortable house taking you back in the 1930’s in La Crosse. It’s recently renovated and it preserves the classic look of the house. Having the yard and the kids swing and the jungle gym is a bonus for guests traveling with children.
