Great accommodations, great proximity!

This is a charming, homey feeling place to stay. The comforts of home have been carefully appointed, making your stay affordable and easy to enjoy yourself. You are within walking distance to the Old Market, and Olsen's bakery being 900 feet from the front door, was so great! Would definitely return! Kat is a wonderful host.
