Jan 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Character Filled Beautiful Home Upon entering the Uptown home, I was so delighted to see the character of this beautiful VRBO. Reminded me of my childhood home. It’s perfect for 4 or more people no problem. The location is great as everything is minutes away. The host (management) was very kind and attentive. He was out salting ‘just in case’. Also making sure we had a nice cleared spot to park was thoughtful. They messaged me during my stay to ensure I had everything I needed. Very very kind hosts.Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home ##### Lynn A. Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda C. Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Well positioned apartment - easy access to PI We were collecting our daughter from Perimeter Institute and used this as a base for her graduation. it was a ten minute walk to the Institute. We had an easy e-check-in and check-out. The parking is a little particular but lots of on street parking you can use during the day. We can recommend the accomodation. ##### Linda C.
