We never received an arrival message, so I had to text the host to get the information on how to get in the place. Other than that the place was in a great location and was small but great.
We booked this as a place to stay for my son's fishing tournament. It was convenient to the tournament location, and it was very clean.
I would stay here again.
This location was very convenient to downtown, was super clean, and had a great vibe. I loved the back porch and the beds were very comfy. The only thing lacking was a sink in the kitchenette space. I definitely will book again when I come to visit my daughters at UNA. Thanks for being a great host!
We loved this little apartment. It was clean, decorated perfectly, and very peaceful. We didn’t need a kitchen since we weren’t there long. Having a fridge was nice though. It was the perfect size and fit our needs perfectly!! Would definitely stay there again.
Property is very clean with comfortable bed and nice patio. Plenty of hot water in the shower. A few things that were significant negatives.
1- There is an upstairs unit and apparently no insulation between the floors. We could hear EVERYTHING that happened in the unit above us. The tenants above us were not rowdy at all, yet still the noise was significant. Due to this, I would not stay here again if I had to stay in the lower unit. Would suggest to the host that they have some insulation blown into the subfloor.
2- The bathroom faucet is not made for this sink. It shoots water at an angle that is guaranteed to drench your clothes. Replacing it with one that angles the water straight down would be a simple and inexpensive fix.
3- It's a two bedroom unit that sleeps four, yet there is only seating in the living room for 2 people.
4- My wife tells me that it would very convenient to have mirrors in the bedrooms. There is one, but it is in the living room behind the entry door. I barged in and bumped her with the door on several occasions as she was fixing her hair.
5- An iron in the unit would have been a nice convenience.
6- While the unit had dishes and glasses, there were only plastic disposable utensils and only spoons and forks. No knives.
7- Unit needed to be stocked with more toilet tissue.
To summarize, the owner was responsive to texts, the unit was very clean, and the beds were reasonably comfortable. If planning to rent, however I recommend the upstairs unit.
Great stay! Very convenient location to downtown. Perfect for our long weekend in Florence.

This was a perfect little place for our weekend getaway ! the back patio was so peaceful and close enough that I was able to walk into town to get a coffee and breakfast. I had to call the host for our check in instructions once we arrived but they were quick to get us all we needed! If we ever come back to Florence , this will be where we stay !
Had a great weekend! Very happy we could bring our dog. Took the music studio tours. When we found out the Frank Lloyd Wright house was down the road, did that tour also. Everything was great!
This was a nice place that was very clean and in a safe, convenient location. It was just right for two people and it had pretty much everything we needed. I especially loved its proximity to FLW’s Rosenbaum House, located just down the street.
Convenient location in Florence with nice out door space.
Easy check-in. Not fancy, but nice. Really enjoyed the outside patio.

we did not have pets. The property was quiet. A couple of things I would reccomend:1. there was no indication of the house number anywhere, this needs to be displayed2. We notified that we could not be there at 4;00 DUE to a graduation so the house door was just left open...not the best.3. If would be good if you let guests know they need to bring shampoo, toilet paper (there was only one roll for 3 people) hand soap, etc.4. Also, it would be good to know that there is no kitchen sink.Although, it there were some things I think could be changed. The location was good, it was a quiet neighbothood and the rooms were clean.thank you
It’s a cute place and centrally located which was very nice. We were here for a baseball tournament and had easy access to everywhere we went. The previous comments are correct about the sound from upstairs but thankfully I had a heads up from the comments and we only heard the other guests during appropriate hours. Bed was comfortable and we had everything we needed.
Finally received check in instructions 45 mins prior to check in. That was after emailing, texting and calling the host. I had to leave a msg that I was going to call Expedia before they finally sent us the info. When we arrived, all of the towels were wet. Folded in drawers still wet. This is not an apartment. There is no sink besides the bathroom. No soap available anywhere. So not a good idea to use the dishes. We reported that the 2nd bedroom had water leaking from the ceiling onto the floor making that room unusable and the floor wet! Nothing was done. Overpriced for what we got. Very disappointed.
