Perfect spot for our family visit

Apartment was tastefully decorated, in a great location (downtown Racine--very close to lake) and had everything we needed. Angela very kindly let us check in early. Only downside was that pullout couch wasn't super-comfy (a bit concave) and was difficult to operate. Main bed sometimes made a loud clunky sound when moving/turning over. Definitely not deal-breakers but we may bring blow up mattress if we visit with our son again.

Weekend Extension

I wanted to stay for one more weekend after my travel contract was up because I met someone! I wanted to spend a little extra time with him, so we did and it was a very pleasant experience. We loved the little apartment and we would definitely stay there again!

Perfect spot

This space was perfect for my daughter and I while visiting family. It was very cute, clean and right on Main St. Parking eas easy and it's just blocks away from my favorite breakfast restaurant in town, Maple Table. There was a wedding party who stayed in the other available space next store who were a bit noisy but it was mostly heard in the hallway and I wouldn't expect quiet from an exciting event. We'd definitely book here when up for a visit again.

Perfect Place for 2!

My husband and I said several times, "We could live here, it's perfect!". We enjoyed the entire apartment. Coffee, creamer, sugar all provided. Streaming television - we watched great movies! Wonderful location to walk to downtown businesses, the water, marina, etc. Parking in the overnight garage 1/2 block away was so cheap and easy. For meals, we took leftovers or desserts from local restaurants back to the apartment to reheat and enjoy anytime! There's even a back building entrance to the apartment, that takes you right to Littleport Brewing for great pizza and beer! Don't bother staying anywhere else, just book the Greyhound and enjoy!

Going back…back back to Racine

Racine native here. This was a great location! If you don’t mind stairs ( lots of skinny ones and think of luggage too), then this place is ideal. I did hear a gentlemen talking but not sure if it was from the business underneath or what.

Lovely flat in historic downtown Racine

We enjoyed our short stay in this nicely decorated and very clean apartment. Downtown Racine is revitalizing and there are some nice businesses and restaurants. And just block from Lake Michigan! Because it’s downtown, it’s got an urban vibe with some noise from traffic and people. I would stay here again!

Overall Great Place to Stay

Overall, this was a great place to stay. The apartment looked just as described, and it was a great location. Two downsides: there was not an air mattress available so that was a little hiccup. The listing also did not state just hot inaccessible it was for someone with disabilities. Yes it noted that it was on a second floor and showed stairs, but the stairs were two flights, straight up, and very narrow. Definitely would have reconsidered staying if I knew just had inaccessible it would be, since I took my 57 year old mother who has bad knees. Other than those issues, the apartment is just as described and in a great location. Overall a pleasant stay.

Great place in great location

The place was exactly as pictured in a great location. The only complaint that we had is in the washer wasn’t working and that was one of the reasons why we chose that location as my boyfriend always has to wash his clothes when we vacation.

Ex-Racine boaters visiting the marina for several days. Location was perfect, walking distance to all of our favorite bars and restaurants. Unit was clean, the TV was functional, and the internet was fast. Very well equipped. Will stay here again if plans allow.

Perfect spot in downtown Racine

We love going back to the Mt. Royal lofts in downtown Racine. Within walking distance are many restaurants, bars, stores and beautiful Lake Michigan. The kitchen has all the pots, pans and utensils needed to cook. The bed is very comfortable. Nice towels in the bathroom. The furniture is cute and nice to sit on. Everything is very clean. We highly recommend Mt. Royal lofts.

Bed bugs, Red Mites, Spiders & Terrible Hosts!

Angela (out of state) and her son (local) rent multiple apartments in the area. We noticed red marks on our necks and back after first night. Investigating uncovered a bed bugs, red mites, and some spiders, too. Contacted Angela, who offered to move our family multiple times during our week stay. No full or partial refund offered. No sincere apology. She waited for us to leave and had the “exterminator” check the apartment. I doubt this was a real person because no card or receipt was left behind. Angela said that no bugs were found. Probably due to my cleaning and washing all sheets and comforters the entire afternoon/night prior. She was so rude, harassing my husband and I via phone and Vrbo messages. We decided our first boy option, considering time and money constraints, was to make the best of a bad situation. We were constantly showering and even bought bug spray to treat the mattresses and rug. It was so uncomfortable. Not sure which was worse - the bugs or the host(s). We’ve never experienced something like this on vacation. Exhausted but home, I still felt it necessary to hot wash all of our clothing, in case some of the buggers we’re still with us.

Nice place for a long weekend

We reserved this property for an extra bedroom while visiting family who live in an apartment in downtown Racine. We mostly spent our time at the family's space, but it was awesome to have The Greyhound as a comfortable home in the mornings, evenings and overnight. The property is clean, modern and comfy with everything you would need for a weekend trip. We had to contact the host to receive information required to access the property, but they were quick to respond and it did not delay our check-in.

Beautiful property Lots of stairs

Let me start by saying this is an absolutely beautiful property, everything was laid out and designed wonderfully! It is also DROP DEAD in the center of downtown Racine which is a beautiful location! That said, I was not aware there were so many stairs to get in and out of the units.. I personally rented this property to get ready for my wedding with my two maid of honor, one of which has MS which causes her weak ankles. Thankfully my co-moh was able to get up the stairs, albeit slowly, with only a few breaks so it wasn’t too bad. That said if I knew I’d have reserved elsewhere to make accessibility for her easier. I also must note how quickly the owners answer when there are issues! I had a problem with the suite’s door code at check-in but I called the owner immediately who solved the issue in less than 5-10 minutes. Because it was resolved so quickly it didn’t affect the trip whatsoever. The only reason I did take away one star for the cleanliness is because the kitchen counters and the kitchen sink looked like they had not been cleaned or wiped down. Also, there was still a load of laundry in the dryer, as well as dishes left in the dishwasher which made it feel like someone else was there. Another point of cleanliness is the train of my wedding dress collected dust bunnies from the livingroom floor (the left corner by the tv stand) that I didn’t have expect to find in a rented stay. Aside from these few grievances it was a wonderful stay.
