The fact that it was listed with a hot tub and there wasn't one was very disappointing! Clean and cute. Location was convenient. Could use a better bed and pillows. It was a good place to stay,

Cozy New England Apartment

The place was great. Loved the location. The only complaint I have is there was construction or something going on next door that started at 7am. The walls are thin and there was constant banging from 7am till checkout.
