This is the second time we have stayed in this same area, and we love the location! Actually good free parking without a time restriction on one side of the street, and easy walking access to Death & Co, Cart Driver, and Snooze. While the carriage house is wonderfully private and comfortable, there was no rug for us to set our muddy wet shoes on when we got in. The fireplace is amazing- once you get it lit!! It took over 1 minute of holding the button down to light, and there were no instructions on how to turn it off. We figured out you just hold down the same button. The claw foot tub is charming, but since we ran out of hot water 2 minutes into the second short shower of the morning we never attempted to have a soak. When we contacted the manager (who responded very promptly!), they said the hot water tank is small since it is not in the main building. The shower curtain is very cheap, as are the shower curtain rings, which makes it really hard to close and get a good seal, so the bathroom floor was covered in water. There is only one towel rack for the poor quality towels, and no hooks for clothing or personal items. We were awoken one night at 3am due to loud voices talking right outside the bedroom window that is directly on the alley. The windows are charming, but single pane, and very drafty and not noise- dampening! We then heard a weird noise in the house, but on inspection it must have been just an unfamiliar house sound. We may have felt safer if there was a deadbolt on the front door. While the decor and the couch are beautiful and COMFY, the bed and linens are not good quality. The renovation is clearly not very high quality and sort of patchy and shabby. But, that must be factored in to the very affordable price. The service was amazing- super fast responses from the manager, complimentary craft beer/ seltzers, and wine in the beautiful and well- laid out lobby. We probably would stay here again, but in the main house!
