Biz trip

Great location and super cute. Looks just like the pics and had a sweet little welcome note with goodies when I arrived. Would stay again for sure. The only negative is the walls are super duper thin and if someone is staying in the unit next door, you can hear everything. It’s still a nice place, and there are even a few restaurants and antique shops close by. Lee was a great host and very communicative and helpful. Right across the river from downtown and very convenient. Enjoyed my stay.
