"Great location, the noise from town hall really isn’t bad- we were there July 4th weekend, so if you are worried about noise know it’s not an issue. We loved the beds and linens. Perfect layout, too. A few more soaps and shampoos would have been nice, but we were also near the market to get some more. Thank you for a nice stay- we would recommend and stay again."

"This apartment was so cozy! It was super clean, and the host was really nice to talk to. It was in walking distance to everything, so we didn't need to use up our gas. There were board games, netflix and card games to keep occupied after walking around town. The beds were very comfortable and the bathtub was HUGE. I will absolutely rent from her again when we come back. Also, her check out instructions were really light and easy; nothing compared to what I've seen other hosts do."
