Me and my partner really enjoyed our stay! Everything was perfect and I couldn’t have been happier! Wish we could’ve taken advantage of the pool but it was a little too chilly. Honestly one of the better places that I’ve stayed! Will definitely be back again!

The casita was charming, clean, and a perfect fit for two people. The bed was comfortable, and we appreciated the snacks and drinks that were offered to us. The details in the modern technology with Alexa, smart tv, etc made our stay very comfortable.

The host is very welcoming. We've stayed here twice now. It's always very clean, lots of drinks and snacks, and such a lovely property. It's a great location if you're visiting Southtown or downtown. The best part for us is that they provide a level 2 charger for our electric car. You will need an adapter if you own a Tesla. We will definitely be staying here again.

Maisonnette joliment décoré avec tout ce qu'il faut. Rien à redire sur la qualité de la prestation.Nous avons été à pied jusqu'au centre ville. Rentrer de nuit au centre ville à pied pas de problème. Notre hôte a été arrangeante sur l'heure d'arrivée.
