Awful

The heat didn’t work and I had my 81 year old mom with me. All the owner said she couldn’t do anything for to find another place to stay. She never answered her phone for me or VRBO when they tried to get a hold of her. So I give them 1 for service.

Cozy, comfy, a tad hard to locate

The property was fairly clean, and could use a few minors repairs/ improvements. Cozy is a great word to describe the property overall. Trying to find it was a challenge. Though the owner offered a map, it was not very clear where to enter, and we were insulted by the neighbor for arriving at the incorrect property. However, the owner did a great job with communication.

Earped floors, curtains puddled on floor, showe curtain to slip on

Cute place but a safety hazard. Floors warped, especially in the bath. Curtains "puddled" on the floor to trip over. Shower curtain too long (tripping hazard) and no safety bar in shower. Very dangerous as tub is very tall to step over.

Cozy is accurate!

The host is amazing. Plenty of communication and she takes pride in her rental. It was very clean and organized, well stocked, and nicely decorated. The linens were the softest I ever felt. I wish there was a better parking option as the alley way was bot only small for my full size truck, but it was actually scary! Maybe that is because we have been watching too many horror films lately. My truck would not even fit properly in the small parking area. It was an interesting building and kind of seemed like an okd shed converted to an apartment, but it was very nice inside and certainly sufficient for a couple nights stay. If you want a more traditional BnB this is definitely not the place to stay. But if you want a cute, comfortable, and cozy place to stay, and if you have a compact vehicle, and you are not deathly afraid of dark alleys, then this is a GREAT place to stay.

Definitely Cozy

The place is well kept, clean, and nicely outfitted. It’s more suitable for two than up to four. The couch is really a love seat. Heather is very communicative and responsive. It’s a great location as well.
