Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Terrific location! Parking on the adjacent street is readily available and really very close to the property. When we arrived, the common area on the first floor had something of a cleaning product odor but it rapidly disappeared when we opened a couple of windows. Queen size sofa bed on the second floor was actually pretty comfortable and among the best sofa beds I have slept on. Really worked perfectly for reunion weekend. ##### Todd D.
