Overall, this is a nice place to stay. As other reviews have stated, the apartment is in a large antique home, so you will hear lots of creaks and noise. To be expected. But, if you are a light sleeper, you may want to explore other options.
This is not an option I would recommend if you are traveling with children (see cons below for specifics). But for couples or heavy sleepers, it will be perfect.
There were a couple of safety concerns that need to be addressed - and I texted the owner about them. Not sure if they will be dealt with or not, but I am mentioning them in case they are not addressed.
Pros:
- Very clean
- Well appointed - has just about everything you could need
- Great location for those who wish to walk and explore
- Awesome gift basket was waiting for us!
- Off-street parking is a huge bonus!
Cons:
- The toilet rocks and it is VERY difficult to get to the handle. It butts against the wall and would pinch/harm small hands. Also very frustrating if you have large fingers. Because of this, there is some gouging in the wall next to the toilet that is getting a little hard to clean.
- The fire extinguisher was down to 25% and we could not read the expiration date because it was smudged. Definitely needs replacing.
- The local bar/restaurant has live music until 12:30 AM most nights (we were there W-Sun and it was every night). You will hear it.
- WARNING: This is an older home so there is an issue with lead pipes for your drinking water (something those of us from outside of the area don't think about). Make sure you pick up some water to drink before arriving - especially if you are smaller or have children.
Going in with this information in mind should help you to enjoy your stay.
