"We had a wonderful stay at this property. The location truly couldn’t be better—an easy walk to a great selection of upscale shops and restaurants, which made exploring the area both convenient and enjoyable.The home itself is thoughtfully equipped, and we especially appreciated the well-stocked laundry room, which made longer stays feel effortless. One of the highlights was the lovely rooftop terrace—such a perfect spot to relax, unwind, and take in the surroundings.Overall, a fantastic choice...

"The location was great. On-site parking was a huge plus. It’s listed as 2 bedroom and den but is essentially a three bedroom house. Lots of space. There was a pack-n-play in the upstairs closet which was a pleasant surprise. Friendly neighbors/felt very safe. A couple of small cleanliness issues and the front door lock needs to be repaired, but owner was aware/planning to fix. I’d definitely stay here again. "
