Cute house in an older, but tidy neighborhood. The house was very clean and included everything we needed from shampoo/conditioner/bodywash/blow dryer to coffee pods & tea bags! The location is very central to everyone we wanted to see during our visit to town. We would definitely stay again.

First, I want to start off by saying this is an absolutely adorable cozy home! Not only did they decorate well, but they had privacy to a "T". I felt very safe traveling solo.The only downfall worth mentioning is 2 things:1 - the fans need some cleaning. The bedroom is warm with the door shut, so I had no choice but turn on the fan. When I did, some dust came down and I woke up with a stuffy nose - no bueno. 2 - the shower is small (I know they cant help this). Just keep this in mind if you are a bigger person and needing to shower. I am average size and even I stuggled cleaning my entire body. Overall, I was very happy with my stay. The property owners were very responsive, kind, and helpful.
