I was in town for a workshop and needed a place to stay within walking distance. This place was perfect and provided me with a nice daily walk. It was so nice to have a full kitchen for meals. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was tidy with a cool shower, and I loved the artistic sink. It was also great to be able to do laundry. One other huge perk of this location is that it is \*so quiet.\* I would definitely stay here again. ##### Heather Z.
