Nice small place

We enjoyed our stay. It was very clean. The bed was comfortable. Parking wasn't the best. A permit was needed for street parking and previous tenants had taken it. Fortunately, we weren’t impacted because of our schedule. The owners were very cooperative and told us we could park in their driveway.I would stay there again.

Great little spot

Grateful for a nice dog-friendly place to stay! Had a little bit of trouble getting into the unit at first - 2 different door codes were sent. I think VRBO sent one in an automated email and then the owner sent another via direct message. Other than that and a little SNAFU where using the oven set off the smoke detector (I swear we weren’t burning anything!), it was a great experience.

We enjoyed our stay here! It was near vineyard country which is why we chose it. It was more of an urban area than we would have liked but the area was pretty quiet. I will say the loft was a tight squeeze and we were both bumping our heads alot. Wifi access was good! The only thing we can't figure out is why most BandB's like Keurigs so much! We are pot if coffee types of people! Check in was also smooth and the parking pass was a bonus so we could park on the street near the house! The bikes and the yard furnishings were a bit dusty from sitting unused so we didn’t use the yard.

Sweet little cottage

Very clean and inviting. My only issue was The lack of downstairs seating. The overstuffed chair could have used an ottoman because the chair height was uncomfortable to sit in for any length of time. Another condo chair or a love seat would have been great. I was supposed to have another person with me and if they came we wouldn’t have been able to stay because lack of seating. It is a one person cottage the way it’s set up. Mbecause if the person I was
