Quick overnight

Very nice place to stay. We were only there for a quick overnight stay but everything was very nice. Clean and comfortable. My only suggestion would be a small tv in the bedroom because the couch area is more a bed than a couch but overall it was very nice.

Exactly as the listing stated. Very little outside noise and easy parking in front. For our stay we didn’t need to worry about meter rules. Easily accessible and walking distance to everything downtown. The host was very communicative and attentive. We will definitely be back soon and have already began referring friends and family.

Thank you

Jonathan was very accommodating allowing us to check in early due to non occupancy the day before. It was an awesome beginning to our mid week birthday celebration. House cleaning could have been better as food was left in the refrigerator from the prior visitors. The house has an artist flare adding to the comforting ambience. My only concern was that there is approximately a 6 inch difference in the floor in the kitchen area or front of the house to the bedroom area in the rear of the house. This means if you had a ball it would roll itself to the back of the house. This leads me to believe there is a foundation problem or possibly a safety issue. However we enjoyed our stay in the capital city. Awesome restaurants and a wonderful contact person, Jonathan.
