Location. Location! Location! Such a dream location. A 3 minute walk to the bus that takes you to town, a 10 minute drive downtown, a convenient store and coffee shop about a 5 minute walk with extremely friendly employees.
The location alone is worth it.
The space was fine. Nothing special, comfortable bed, towels, space heater (it’s pretty chilly and the floors are freezing), no tv in the room. I was just there to sleep so it was perfectly fine for me.
The staircase is very narrow which made it difficult to carry my heavy suitcase up and down.
Shared bathroom but they were very mindful of my use.
I didn’t like that there was another room by mine rented out that I was unaware of when booking. It made me uncomfortable to have myself and things vulnerable to another traveler which I had no information about.
The living space was uncomfortable for me, I felt like I was intruding in someone’s home (which you kind of are), but didn’t know what I could/couldn’t touch/use (such as mugs, silverware, sugar for coffee, etc).
When I utilize AirB&Bs I like to keep to myself and don’t spend much time there so I like the ease of having information on where things are or how to use things (they have an espresso machine but no instructions how to use it).
Yes, I could ask. However when I’m leaving by 7am I don’t want to have to wait for a response. They were very pleasant in their messages and answered any questions that I did ask thoroughly so I have no doubts that if you’re more comfortable socializing, your needs would be met and exceeded.
I would definitely stay again. Cute/safe neighborhood. If you’re looking for a cozy bed close to town, this is definitely your spot! Keypad entry made it easy to come and go as you please.
