Awesome home away

The place was really nice, new furniture and great patio to relax on. We had the bottom level of the house, but we never had to interact with other guest. Separate Drive ways, and fenced in yards. This will be our go to when we are in town. *Just a note There is no Dining room table or stove if you plan to cook, But it did have a microwave, Air fryer and a nice Keurig.

A lot to like

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 and location

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.

Cute place, nice stay

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.

Great place to stay for a wedding weekend

Check in instructions were last minute but once communication was established it was fine. Not a lot of sitting room inside. The porch was nice.

Great for a quick weekend visit

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!

Great location and very peaceful

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.
