The Neighborhood:
We highly recommend that guests conduct their own thorough research about the neighborhood before making a reservation at our property.
This area has a rich history, dating back to the late 1800s, and has experienced revitalization in recent years. It has garnered attention for its ongoing transformation, attracting investment, and witnessing the restoration of historic homes, the construction of new residences, the opening of new dining and entertainment venues, and the arrival of new residents eager to enjoy the proximity to downtown.
However, we want to be upfront about the nature of the neighborhood. It is a transitional area where you'll find both beautifully restored properties and some homes that are still awaiting their own transformations. Some guests may find certain aspects of the neighborhood less aesthetically pleasing or comfortable.
We are pleased to share that our guests (over 500 reservations since 2019) have had positive experiences during their stays with us. If you're seeking a comfortable and affordable home in close proximity to downtown, our property may be an ideal choice for you. However, if you prefer a neighborhood with a more polished appearance and walkable access to stores and restaurants, you might consider accommodations in other areas.
We strongly recommend conducting your research on the area to ensure that you're comfortable with the neighborhood's characteristics before making a reservation. We believe in providing honest and transparent information to help you make an informed decision for your stay.
Getting Around:
Private parking space is available in front of the porch for 1 vehicle. There is plenty of additional street parking outside the property gate.
