Great for a quick visit!
Overall the place was perfect for what we needed! There was a miscommunication with the cleaning staff, so the place had not been fully cleaned at check-in, but the cleaning crew solved the issue without us ever having to contact the owner. All furniture was clean and comfortable. The bed frame is loud which made it difficult to bedshare with a toddler, but the mattress was comfortable!

Average unit, nothing special
Needs attention to furniture, very worn. TV was maybe 17” only in bedroom too small to see if in bed! Only window a/c unit very stuffy. Bathroom had to exit room and cross hall and no a/c in utility room where bathroom was. This was not acceptable. Host was very nice but would not recommend , Location was also deal breaker Behind Henry’s Restaurant on outskirts of town. Not good location for walking to places. Thank goodness, I had family there so was not there but to sleep and bath, but for the price expect more.

Quaint and Convenient
Enjoyed being so close to start and finish lines at brewery for the race. Eric was super nice host and communicated with us on our arrival and the check in check out process. Simple and just what we needed for accommodations - nothing fancy - but comfortable enough and everything we needed for a couple days.
