Please excuse our neighborhood's projects - It seems the housing boom has hit our little downtown neighborhood which has created several renovation and new construction projects. What this means is that there may be commercial vehicles parked in the street and the sound of busy workers during business hours.

Great location and host
This is a great property in a prime location near Downtown Raleigh. I had a minor issue with the AC unit running out of refrigerant but the host fixed the issue promptly and prorated me for the inconvenience. I will definitely recommend this host and property to friends.

Super easy and reliable
I loved my stay! I’m pretty picky about where I stay so I had high expectations and they were all met. Very, very clean. I used to clean houses, so I know the ways people cut corners to give the impression that its clean when its not actually clean. The owner contacted me back very fast! The neighborhood was super cute, I felt really safe staying there. There was plenty of light as well as plenty of ways to keep the room private. There was a binder on the counter that tells you all of the information you need to know in a concise way.

Avenged Sevenfold Raleigh 2024
I went to Raleigh to see my favorite band. The property was back off the main road so there was some privacy but everything you’d need was within 10 minutes or less. It was a cozy tiny little studio but if you’re by yourself or even with 1 other person, it’s comfortable for a couple nights. I’d stay here again. It was quiet, I slept in a Murphy bed for the first time ever so that was cool & overall, it was a great stay with great vibes. Nobody bothered me. I had no worries.

Neat to have a cool little studio like this as a rentable property! Note to Expedia users: The confirmation email said that I would receive communication from the host before my arrival, but I think that must have gotten lost somewhere along the way. I was on the phone with Expedia multiple times on the way to the property, and they were of absolutely zero help. No one could figure it out. I had to look up the host to find his contact info because it was not provided by Expedia. You may be off renting this directly on Vrbo.

Absolutely great little Gem Hidden in plain sight. Perfect for a trip to North Carolina, close to downtown and most main highways. The Host were spot on with the details and personal touches. Lots of thought went into the design that you will appreciate.

Great Place!
This was an amazing stay. The check in and check out process was extremely easy, the neighborhood was very nice, the studio was very clean. I would suggest leaving a finger sized gap in the bathroom door as it can be difficult to open when fully closed. Other than that, this booking was absolutely great! Would recommend.

Cute spot. Construction next door.
Great location, cute studio. Had a scheduling hiccup that was handled promptly and well by the owner. This may have effected their ability to get in and prep (I’m not sure) There was a generator running right on the other side of the wall which made day time rest not possible. I arrived at 1pm and it ran until 7pm. Normally not an issue but I specifically was looking for a nap after travel. The shower got Luke warm at best and didn’t last long. Tried all settings of shower temp range. Tried twice with same result different times of the day. Very small blanket provided (bedding was incomplete) heat and AC worked great. All of this said, this really could be a perfect spot if the neighbors finish their project and the hot water and bedding were addressed. A bit pricey for what it was but the location was great. A tad dusty on high surfaces. Would likely stay again with the hope the generator is gone and a hot shower is guaranteed. I flew in so I also didn’t bring any bedding. If I were driving and staying here I would have brought more bedding.

Nice
It’s nice but small, a good size for just one or two people to stay. The only downside is a skylight in the roof, during the day it gets really bright and there’s not a conventional way to cover it. Other than that, it was very clean and accommodating.

Excellent location
Amazing prime location just like everyone else said. So easy to get everywhere. It was super cute and tastefully decorated. The bathroom was surprisingly spacious with a very nice shower. Murphy bed was easy to use and bring down. I think the mattress or something was off a bit because there was a slight tilt left to right, but was comfortable never the less. Would definitely stay again! Had a great stay.

Very nice space for a single person to stay. Close to downtown attractions and restaurants. Just a fyi, bring a sleep mask as there is a skylight that makes the room nice and bright, even early in the morning. Would totally stay again next time I’m in Raleigh.
