Decent property that fit our needs. Family of four stayed here for four nights. Kitchen provided the essentials for breakfast and sometimes lunch while we ventured out for dinner. Having parking available was very nice. We could occasionally hear people in the pool next door but for a house in an urban area found it to be quiet enough. Would recommend a stay here.

Property was clean and nicely appointed. Plenty of towels. Bathrooms were a bit cramped and bathroom sinks were incredibly small. (I had to press my head against the mirror in order not to slop toothpaste and water everywhere when brushing my teeth!) I understand why they are small, as it seems the bathrooms were installed after the house was built and this was a very old apartment. A couple of suggestions: My sister and brother-in-law were both struggling with allergies and used up the toilet paper quickly blowing their noses. Might provide a bit more toilet paper, or offer some kleenex in the bedrooms in order that guests don't run out. Also, the rug in the living room is made of some sort of jute type material that is very painful to walk on in bare or stocking feet. Maybe put a different low nap rug in the living room. A throw was provided on the couch. Perhaps if you could offer 1 or 2 more throws there, that would make things a bit more comfortable. The AC blows right onto the extended part of the couch and we found that we had to keep swapping the one throw back and forth to stay comfortable! It would be great if there was a half bathroom on the ground floor. Again I realize that space is tight...maybe a small addition could be put where the door in the kitchen leads out to the front porch. Finally, I'm an insurance adjuster so I'm extra sensitive to noticing hazards, but, you might want to consider putting a railing up on the front porch to prevent falls

Very smooth check in, the property had everything needed but the location here cannot be bested. A few blocks off king street, easy walks to a variety of local spots. Absolutely loved it.
