This is the place to stay in Effingham
My wife, daughter, and I stayed here for three nights. This place was perfect for us. We were pretty busy meeting with family and friends during the day so this place was a cozy and very comfortable place to relax and rest. It had great places around it to eat and have drinks. Definitely recommend.

Nice downtown location
We really enjoyed the location of this rental. It was a safe area with lots of nice restaurants and shops all within walking distance. Folks in town were friendly. Studio loft was just right for the two of us. Had everything you need for a short stay. Can’t beat the price and location compared to the hotels based on what you get here. Would definitely stay again

Everything You Could Ask For
We were amazed at how well this small space was turned into a little architectural gem. The apartment had every single amenity. We took pictures of every nook and cranny because it was so perfectly arranged and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the restaurant next door and even took our dog to the outdoor patio.

Lovely renovated apartment in old bank building
Fit my needs perfectly for a one night stay as I travelled from Kansas to Ohio. The restaurant right next door was so convenient for this tired traveler and provided a delicious Caesar salad! The apartment was spotlessly clean with everything I needed. Highly recommend! 😃

I lived in Effingham many years ago and admire the repurposing of one of the lovely downtown buildings. This property is super clean, comfortable and modern with many amenities including a full sized washer and dryer. Hosts are extremely responsive and cordial to your every whim.
