Close to the sculpture park downtown and lots of places you can walk to. We didn't spend a lot of time in the room, other than to sleep. Simple amenities were perfect for us. ##### Kristen M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John M. 26 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay! So glad we found this place! We needed a place to stay for 9 days between an alumni reunion and a family wedding and hotel prices were prohibitive. This roomy efficiency was perfect for our stay in a great location at a great price that saved us a lot of cash, making the trip possible. But, what may have made the stay best were the rapid, friendly, and helpful responses I always got from the host whenever I had a question or needed assistance. I'll definitely stay here next time. P. S. The bed is REALLY comfortable! Thanks for everything. This ##### John M.

At the end of my stay I locked up and put the keys where I was told. I then got messages from the property manager saying the cleaners could not get to the keys. Film yourself locking them up, I was not happy with how they tried to pretend I lost them. ##### Abby S.
