We have stayed in so many places that always seem to meet our basic needs in the most simplistic of ways.... This loft met way more than the basic need of a place to lay your head and a simple kitchen. The entire place was exceptional in all ways!! So quirky, fun and full of color! Upon our Christmas Eve arrival we were greeted with fresh baked cookies and the piano was playing Christmas music in a magical display of lights, color and sound! The first 45 minutes our group of six just wandered around in awe of all of the sights, decorations and flair in the owner has put into every inch of the space! The pool table was a hit with our adult children who spent several hours during our time there laughing and bonding around it. Fantastic movie setup if desired, we only squeezed in one film, but being The Goonies was found in the collection, it was a must watch!! Very large table in the middle of everything the loft had to offer provided us hours of family chatting, card and board playing and laughter of just being around it together. The kitchen was very well supplied and everything was well placed and easily accessible. Our host had stocked the massive refrigerator with sodas water and candy for our enjoyment! Along with any condiments or other items I think anyone could ever need!! This was really appreciated as our rental car reservation was botched by the company and we arrived later than hoped. Being Christmas Eve there were not many options for shopping!! I love that the host checked in with us immediately after booking, asking if there was anything he could do to ensure a great stay, he remained in touch and answered any texts we sent with questions or blunders, on our part, with the utmost pleasantness and professionalism! We walked to various locations around the downtown area as the loft was very well located and we always felt safe and secure! Being guests over the weekend of a holiday season the venue downstairs did host parties which we heard. For us, the music was fun and provided a party like environment for us as well. Both events ended quite early and did not cause disruption into any sleeping time! I agree, wholeheartedly, that that experience was just as it was listed in the hosts description as being a wonderful addition to the downtown loft experience!! We enjoyed browsing the vintage thrift store downstairs as well! Highly recommend this loft, could not review it any higher!! Just awesome!
The Ealand Family will be back!!
