Fantastic location. Apartment decor was creative and appealing . Kitchen had everything we needed, but ate most meals at the multiple excellent restaurants in the area.The spiral staircase was gorgeous , however if someone has ambulatory restrictions may want to consider other lodging. The bathroom and bedroom are in the loft. Getting a heavy suitcase up is stairs does require effort!Parking close by in a parking garage. There is an unloading are in front of the inn. The negative was the black mold in the bathroom sink, shower grout and tub facet.we did take the liberty to use the household cleaning supplies to scrub the tile and tub. Some renter’s may find objections to cleaning, however the apartment overall was so charming we took the effort to clean. Overall beautiful property but disappointed with the bathroom conditions. We expected better attention to the bathroom with the price we paid.

Very clean unit and great location. Free parking is a HUGE perk! Owner is friendly and responsive. Our only feedback would be that the bathroom could use an update, aesthetically. But everything was clean and functional as is. We enjoyed our mini vacay and would stay here again!

Great location right in the heart of the downtown area. SNOB restaurant was rec by host and across the street. Great food.We had noise one night all night - seems like there are a lot of bachelorette parties in the city and they apparently go all night. Bring ear plugs…

Host promptly responded to questions prior to stay. The place was quaint, very clean and check-in with code was easy. As noted in description, bedroom and bath is on the upper level. Really appreciated a paid parking space as parking nearby was limited and expensive. It was a prime location and we could walk most everywhere we wanted to go. Would stay there again.

We loved our stay. The decor is lovely. We had tons of space to really spread out. There were plenty of towels, and the kitchen was well equipped. There was a shared laundry room with machines that would both wash and dry your laundry. No switching machines to dry. The property has a beautiful courtyard. The location is excellent, with loads of restaurants and sights in easy walking distance.
