The bed was extra comfy, shower was great, and communication with the host was spot on! Just be careful going into and getting out of the bed, the bed frame seemed a little unstable.

The host, Desmond, provided detailed instructions and was good with communications. The VRBO itself was clean, well equipped, with a comfortable bed and an AC. Also include were a microwave, a fridge and a Keurig. It was ideal for my short stay and at a great price.

Amenities were nice (coffee and tea) and the room was well-prepared for my stay. I felt very “expected” and welcomed. The TV we a bit troublesome in that it was slow to respond to commands and I never did get it to access casting from my iPad. I ended up viewing what I wanted on the iPad directly.

It was clean and had all you need. My only concern was the way the inside door to the room did not lock but from the inside. I feel it should have the same code lock as outside.. Just a suggestion. The host was very quick to answer email doing good job

This place is definitely a hidden gem! Its so private and quiet you feel as if you are in a standalone studio more than a room in a home. The space is thoughtfully curated, I especially appreciated the multiple outlets right on the bedside tables. The bed was so comfortable that I actually spent one day of my stay bedrotting! The A/C is so cool! And there was no endless list of rules and tasks to perform on checkout! The host (I got to meet him on my way out!) was so responsive to any questions almost immediately! I travel to the area frequently, this is the place I will always choose to stay!
