We had a great time staying at the Cayuga Street house. The home is very comfy and full of charm, located within easy walking distance to great restaurants. The neighborhood is very quiet and the neighbors are fun to talk to. We spent most of our (4) day stay near Niagara Falls, and found the drive very easy each day. If you wand a great group meal, head over to Casa Antica, we had a blast. Abby was very responsive to all the questions that we had!
