The beds and pillows were incredible. The view was incredible and we highly recommend this accomodation. ##### Sarah K.

The loft was quiet, clean, and beautifully maintained. Thoughtful touches and plenty of supplies made the stay very comfortable. Local boutiques are just a short walk away, and the view over the river was the icing on the cake. I stayed for about a week and it quickly felt like home. One note: it can be tricky to get an Uber or Lyft without a car, but Kris was very helpful in pointing me to a local taxi company. Thank you! I’d definitely love to stay here again the next time we’re in town. ##### Yun Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Allan W. 30 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Allan W.
