We very much enjoyed our stay at checkerboard. Brads communication was excellent. The location for us worked very well. Friendly neighborhood. Very walkable. Easy access to public transportation. We didn’t use our vehicle at all while staying here. Easy arrival and departure for us from the hwy. Parking was very close and easy to find a space. The bed and furniture was all very comfortable. The studio accommodations provided everything we may have needed for a more than comfortable stay.
