Nice spot for bar hoppers

Nice place if you are friends planning on hitting the bars. Not so great for a family with people screaming on the streets in the middle of the night.

NOT FAMILY FRIENDLYYou can hear the night life all hours of the night. Windows are thin and its so loud that it feels like people can walk straight in. While the map doesn’t look too far from Market Square, it is an uphill walk. We had issues with the code to get into the condo, the freezer being loud, and water dripping into a bedroom. The hosts were very friendly and very responsive. They tried to do right by us but I absolutely wouldn’t not recommend staying here with a family.

Great location

We had a great stay and its a wonderful space. Everything was within walking distance (meaning right outside your door) cool coffee shops, restaurants, a little market that has necessities, bars, shops. We stayed 3 nights and never had to get into our car. The place is very spacious 3 bedrooms. Our favorite places were the French Cafe, Kaizen, and Kefi next door to the VRBO. My only complaint would be the shower setting the hot water can be a difficult and lengthy process but over all it was a great experience and i would stay again.

We were in town for my sons travel football tournament. Location was perfect. Noise restrictions probably not needed as thursday- saturday night the bars, music, screaming and cars racing until 3am would drown out kids/tv noise. Lots of rain the firat two nights causes front bedrooms to be soaked in water - management eam reaponded quickly but had no follow through and never came to property. Ended up leaving a night early to find other accomodations.

Old charm

The loft was roomy with cute old charm. Fit 7 people comfortably. An extra bathroom would have been nice, but we knew that going in. They provided everything you needed, fans, extra sheets even an air mattress if needed. Great communication. Would recommend

Okay/decent unit with excellent location

We enjoyed the unit overall based on location. Paying that much money you should be able to take a hot shower with good water pressure. none of the women or my daughter would wash their hair because the pressure was so poor. There is a metal electrical outlet that is hidden behind the futon that is bent in half and my daughter not knowing any better went to plug in her charger and it shocked her pretty bad.

Don’t stay on weekends

We were awake most of the night with the street noise from the bars in the neighborhood. Dishes were dirty, holes in the walls. Door handles unattached. Really disappointed.

Horrible - my family booked this location well in advance. The morning of the day of arrival we receive a text outside of the VRBO app we receive a text stating that their broken furniture. We arrived around 10pm and proceeded wait over an hour because their system would not provide us with the access code to get and lack of response from the property management team. Eventually we had to split our family up and stay in multiple rooms at a hotel. This was a big game weekend which made it difficult to find rooms and costly.

Cool loft with a couple of draw-backs

Overall, the place had a nice vibe with some good points for style and was very affordable. The biggest downside we ran into was the complete lack of hot water. I'm glad we were only staying for one night or it would have really put a damper on our stay. There was a sign about how to make the water hot, but it didn't seem to apply at all. The other downside was the neighborhood. There was some commotion right outside in the middle of the night that had to involve the police. Not much you can do on that one. Just something to be aware of.

Concert Night

While we were disappointed we couldn't check in early on a weekday, the property was very convenient to our concert destination. Balcony pics were a little deceiving. This unit is in a very old building and is quite charming. The bathroom had a very musty smell. We all agreed the unit just added to our concert/reunion visit.
