"It was right in the heart of Old Town yet it was so quiet and relaxing inside the unit. Honeycomb blinds and blackout curtains insured total privacy when desired and the queen bed was so comfortable, we were able to sleep soundly and wake up refreshed. Our two dogs really enjoyed their stay as well. All of us had everything we needed, including off-street parking Definitely planning to stay here again in the future."
