Unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances we had to cut our stay short, but Gerard was very accommodating and responsive during this process! The space is just as advertised and the workspace below is great!

Gerard is amazing. Super nice and very responsive. The instructions and directions were sent to us in advance and always arrived at the perfect time. It’s a great studio apartment and is very comfortable and clean. An amazing beach is less than 10 mins away and the shopping and food in Westport is a 10!!

My wife and I stayed in this cute apartment in Westport for a week. It was perfect for our trip as I worked remotely, and my wife worked nights nearby. The apartment has everything you need for a home away from home. The kitchen is perfect for meals for two. The area is spacious, with lovely decor and ambiance. The bed is super comfy memory foam. All of it makes for a great living space.
Below the apartment, you have access to the communal workspace, which is great for video meetings. The whole space is an old mill the owner converted. You can see the lovely river flowing from the workspace below. My only complaint is that the hot water did go quickly a couple of times, and the floor in spots is creaky, but everything overall was fantastic.

We stayed here while getting our floors refinished. The studio was very well appointed and nicely decorated.
Gerard went out of his way to ensure that all was well and answered every question I had.

The apartment made the most of the space and was great overall.
The location is ok, but sits on a busy road, which doesn’t give any sense that you are close to the water, which you are.
The host was very accessible, which I really appreciated. I would rent again

Clean, cute and spacious studio apartment. Great Wi-Fi and workspace if you need to get work done. Appreciated the soft sheets and white noise machine for a good nights sleep. Also had soft towels and bathroom had toiletries and lotion for convenience. And has washer/dryer for laundry as well. I highly recommend!

The property owner was very responsive, kind and helpful. This studio is clean and well stocked and great for two. It is very convenient to major thoroughfares, airports, train stations, or visits to the coast or even quiet drives through the countryside. We had a great stay and look forward to future visits.

We had a lovely 4 night stay at this lovely loft apartment in Westport, CT. The loft is a studio apartment located on the second floor of a renovated historic mill. The studio has a small living room area with a sleeper sofa. There is also a bedroom area, small kitchen, and bathroom. I wouldn’t attempt to cook a full dinner in the kitchen but it works well enough for making breakfast in the morning. There is also a laundry room on the first floor of the mill if you need to wash clothes. We loved being between downtown Fairfield and Westport which provided lots of great dinning options. If you don’t want to get in the car you can always walk across the street to Panera Bread or next door to the Shake Shack for a quick bite. We brought our little dog with us. Finding a safe place to walk him posed a problem since the studio is directly on the Post Road and he was scared of the traffic flying by. The property manager, Gerard, was very accommodating. You could tell he loves all the properties under his care. If you’re able to climb stairs and love staying in the center of everything then this property is for you!

If you would like to be in the room most of the time - work or just stay inside - the place is fantastic: it is uniquely and very tastefully arranged and has everything you need. The host offered access to a co-working place downstairs, which is a brilliantly planned facility. If you. however would like to enjoy the beach while lacking the local car plate registration, be prepared to either walk there (30 min) or pay $50/day entry fee on weekends (2022 numbers). Our stay was very pleasant, and the host checked in with us several times.

Attractive, week equipped and maintained unit, convenient to highways, Metro North, Westport shopping, beach. Gerard was a helpful and gracious host. Access to business suite on lower level is a plus if you’ve brought some work along with you. Only negative is location directly on Post Road, which results in some traffic noise. In all, an enjoyable stay.

Studio was incredibly comfortable and convenient to everything for me and hubby… owners thought of everything and are very kind in making sure you get in as planned with no questions. It abuts a busy road on one side so not conducive to long quiet sits outside..but no problems sleeping.

My 11 year old daughter and I stayed for a few nights while visiting our family in Westport. We found the unit to be very clean and comfortable. The communication with the property manager was excellent. We came in from the west coast time zone, and we were concerned that the street noise and light in the unit would wake us too early, but it was fine with eye masks and ear plugs. The bed and the roll-out couch were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pans, utensils, microwave, stove, and a mini fridge. We plan to return again the future ! Thank you!

Everything you need in a great location!
We had a fun and peaceful time in this spacious VRBO. It had everything we needed from fluffy towels, well stocked kitchen utensils, plenty of heat and hot H2O, and all in a great location. VERY clean! Your stay includes access to work space on first floor. We had Panera breakfast by the river down there every morning. Panera is right across the street for your morning muffin, etc. This VRBO provides free coffee and fast wifi to keep you jazzed and connected. Super easy check in and check out with fantastic owner Gerard. Will definitely book again!

Review of Westport studio
The studio was clean and comfortable and the location perfect for visiting our family. Not sure we would recommend for a long stay as the parking was challenging during the day and there was not much of an outside area to enjoy the beautiful September weather. I would also suggest updating the cookware for stays longer then a few days.

This is a lovely restored space in an old mill building located on the Post Road. It's light and bright, with imaginative and colorful decor. There are many skylights and windows, but there is no sound from the road. It's a convenient, charming and comfortable place to stay.
