Wouldn’t stay again
Unit could use a deep clean. Both rugs were so stained/dirty that I ended up rolling them up and putting them below the couch for my stay. All the pans were rusted, ended up buying my own to be able to cook my meals. Parking lot light is directly outside bedroom window, without black out curtains. If you are staying more than a few days, no place to unpack clothes, ended up staying stuff on a bookshelf. Would not have been adequate space to stay with my spouse or a kid.

Cute Studio in Beautiful Downtown
Cottage was a little smaller than I had hoped but was great for our stay. Bed was comfortable, great water pressure, quiet and friendly area, and great host.

Sweet Suite!
This VRBO was perfect for my teenage daughter and I for a 3 day convention. We brought our dog and we felt very safe at this location. There was plenty of room for our dog’s crate and us to walk around getting ready. Loved that parking was not directly on the street!
