This is quite a wonderful alternative to a hotel. It's located in the heart of one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Salem (a half a block from the Governor's Mansion) and on an amazingly beautiful property. The unit itself could be called a "carriage house" as it's above a portion of the three car the garage. It is a bit small (maybe 300+ sq. ft.) but it has windows on three sides and the gardens are fabulous. I'd take my coffee in the morning (a beer in the early evening also) and sit out in the gardens reading my book. The outdoor aspect of this property was just marvelous! And it's very centrally located as well. For about the same price as the very average hotels next to I-5 (I've stayed at several of them) there is no comparison.
