Outstanding property!
Exactly as described and more! This tiny house did not skimp on construction, appliances or interior decoration. Everything is outfitted as I would for my own house which made us feel at home. The owners provided clear, concise, directions and guidelines. Their communication was welcomeing. It's a short walk to restaurants and night life, and the neighborhood is lovely and safe. We would absolutely stay here again!
