While we enjoyed our stay (which was a business trip for 3 girls coming to town to attend a fabric convention) there was a whole lot of both bad and good about our experience. First the Good. The pictures really do tell the story of just what a beautiful place this is to stay. The bathroom has such a cool build out...with a japanese style soaking tub and fantastic water pressure for your shower times. The kitchen build out is simply dreamy...so many cabinets and such a cool vintage stove.... Both large beds I heard from my coworkers were quite comfy...with one being much more firm and the other soft ...so suitable for multiple sleeping habits/tastes. The heating system worked great and was very quiet and efficient. When major issues arose the hosts were very communicative and even willing to help with a refund to help us with finding a more suitable space... which we didnt end up doing..... partially because we appreciated that they were trying so hard to make it right for us....and definitely because there was a bottle of wine we could drink on hand to make it all feel better.
Now the not so Good. The space is listed as having 3 separate bedrooms with 3 separate beds.... One of those beds is listed as a twin... but it is NOT actually a bed... it is in fact a pull out twin size sofa. There is a pretty huge difference between a pull out sofa and a bed. So this felt misleading. The more important point, which was a huge problem for our group, is that this bed 'room' is actually more of a side or in between space that is 'between' the other two bedrooms and only accessible by walking through one of them. It also has NO privacy from one of the bedrooms (there is a curtain to create privacy from the other). If you are traveling for business, as we were, and need separate bedrooms than this is not acceptable and not clearly defined in the listing.
There is not just construction on the building, which is happening downstairs and begins at 8am... but more importantly there is a HUGE construction project adjacent to the space which starts at 7am and during our stay consisted of a pile driver - chainsaws - and lot of large rubble being worked on for the first 40 min of the day.... at which point it quieted down considerably each day... not sure why they would choose to start with the LOUDEST possible noises at the earliest possible time...but you can be certain they did both mornings.... this ruined our plans to go out and socialize the second evening because we knew we wouldnt get enough sleep if we did!
So. Would i recommend the space and the lovely folks that host it and also took such loving care in the renovation of it! ABSOLUTELY! but I would want to know about the current construction projects nearby in more detail with my stay...and I would definitely want better details (not just pics which are hard to decipher if you arent familiar with a space).
