Beautiful home in great neighborhood

The house was perfect and historic. A new bridge is being constructed across the street - and once that is finished the access to downtown will be that much quicker. Loved the tiny bakery right behind the house.

Great, stylish home!

Our family stayed in the Parkway suite for 1 night as a pit stop on a roadtrip. The place was great! We enjoyed the stylish decor and ability to walk to the local park, store, and restaurants. I also appreciated the proactive, professional checkin and checkout process - everything was detailed and thorough. Would definitely stay here again!

Two of my favorite things from a previous visit to Roanoke, RND coffee shop and the impressive greenway along the river, are right outside the door. Responsive host. Highly recommended!
