Historic building with some nice updates. Great price and location for us. It is a large building split into multiple units but no issues with noise from apartments at all. Would recommend if you're in the area.

Very clean, very cute little place for a stay. The host was extremely responsive and respectful within interactions. Check in was very easy. We stayed for a 2 night concert at Freedom Mortgage Pavilion was easily accessible to travel there in multiple modes. Highly recommend! Felt very safe and comfortable.

This is a beautiful historic home in a gorgeous neighborhood. This home is lived in and separated into apartments so keep that in mind. I will say the constant signs for cleanliness can feel daunting if youre someone with actual ocd just a heads up for my disabled homies out there haha.The host was very kind and communicative and they responded swiftly to all messages. Awesome water pressure too! There is a bathtub and tons of closet space! As well as an iron and ironing board which I needed and was pleasantly surprised by.
