    The property is in a great location that allows you to walk to restaurants, stores, parks easily. Chloe is a wonderful host. She communicated with us prior to the stay and at registration making the entire process seem less.

    So easy to find. Checked in late due to lost luggage but the host was available and very helpful trying to direct us to open restaurants. The room was very basic but all that we needed for a quick sleep and out the door. Location great.

    Chloe was really helpful and always went an extra mile to provide any help/guidance we requested for. The property was kept clean and tidy. It has a homely feeling and Chloe was always a knock or a call away.
