Great location!
This was a very nice place and the only complaint is the street in front of the house is loud. Luckily there was fan to drown out the noise.

Great location and overall great stay!
Super easy check in, great location! My only complaint was the bathroom needs some work. It wasn’t super clean and the fan is unusable. It’s super loud and squeaky. It also wasn’t super clean. The walls need wiping off and some dust/dirt. Also, if you are a light sleeper I wouldn’t recommend staying here. Lots of noise in the Main Street. Otherwise, comfortable bed (could use better pillows), nice kitchen with everything we needed, easy parking, check in and check out.

Perfect place for a visit to Raleigh
Visited Raleigh for a 2 day continuing education class, and this property was the perfect stay. Quaint and perfectly furnished apartment located desirably close to restaurants and entertainment. Clean, modern, and more than adequately equipped with anything you would need for a short or extended stay. Will stay again!

Great location, easy check-in
This property is very cute, and well-maintained. Close to everything, easy check-in and check-out process. Fast communication from property owners. The only drawbacks for us were that the kitchen wasn't as well-stocked with pots/pans and cooking utensils as we'd hoped, and the noise coming from the other renters in the building was loud, especially when in the bedroom area.

Very Charming Place
I would have giving this a 5 star rating, but just one thing that I know could be improved for women...more counter space/shelves in the bathroom. We have a lot of stuff. Justin was great at communicating and everything was just as pictured on line. I would stay here again.
