"Very nice property, just 10 mins from UNI. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen and baths were very well stocked (more than what you would need!!) The sauna, jacuzzi and air hockey were a bonus! The furniture is a bit dated and could use some updating and cleanup. The host, Nick, is very responsive and accommodating and we had the pleasure of meeting him for a quick few minutes as well. Overall we had a very comfortable stay and would definitely recommend this place."
