Located in the heart of downtown Bellefontaine, this flat combines bold visual style with practical comfort, making it a standout choice for travelers who want more than a basic place to sleep.

The Sahara Flat offers a larger layout than many short-term rentals, giving guests more room to spread out, relax, work, or spend time together.

This flat is a great option for couples, small groups, families, or business travelers who appreciate having a little more space during their stay. Guests can enjoy fast Wi-Fi, a dedicated workspace, self check-in, a full kitchen, and a welcoming atmosphere that works equally well for short trips and longer visits. The combination of personality and practicality helps this unit stand out from more standard downtown accommodations.

Its location is another major advantage. Guests can walk to restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and local attractions in downtown Bellefontaine, making it easy to enjoy the area without constantly needing to drive.

If you are looking for a downtown stay with strong design, extra room, and a memorable personality, The Sahara Flat offers a comfortable and distinctive experience that is ideal for a wide range of travelers.

Most available amenities are within walking distance. Major grocery shopping is less than 1 mile but no more than 3 miles away with Uber/Taxi service availability.

Although the apartment is a 1 bedroom that sleeps 5, the specific sleeping order is as follows:
1 full size bed that sleeps 2 persons, most likely a couple.
1 chaise lounge in the bedroom for lounging or it may be converted into a sleeping space.
1 futon couch in the living room that converts to sleep one person.
1 ottoman in the living room that converts into a single bed.

How comfortable the additional sleeping arrangements will be remains to be determined.
