Beautiful loft, wonderful host and manager

The loft was clean, spacious, and cool even on the hottest of days. The towels were fluffy, the bed and pillows were comfortable, and the sofa and living room chairs provided a soft place to land after long days of sightseeing in 90 degree weather. Some of the sightseeing venues and restaurants we visited were recommended by the host in the welcome book, and they made our stay all the more enjoyable.We were extremely grateful that the host and manager were so helpful and gracious when I made an error that required them both to lend assistance on a Sunday afternoon. We highly recommend this loft and hope to stay there again the next time we're in the area.
