"The title pretty sums it up. It is a great property and we had a fun time and enjoyed our stay. Only negatives were that the bed is not very comfortable, and also the sound proofing is not very good so unless you have a fan on or something you'll be able to hear traffic and trains throughout the night.

The cottage was immaculate comfortable and freshly remodeled. The host offered to move us to a unit with a second bed free of charge to better meet our needs. Why stay in a hotel when you could stay here. "

"Good family getaway spot, the backyard is definitely the highlight and has the most room for everyone to be together. The host was wonderful and super helpful, I really appreciated the early check in. My only criticism is that the photos online look like the cottage is farther away from the main house, but they are right next to each other, so there isn't a lot of privacy and the cottage is very small."

"Really loved the space available inside of our room. Incredibly spacious in our king studio with a full kitchen and full sized fridge. My wife and I loved being able to take a walk to Chad’s for brunch and later on a walk just across the street to walk to the beach and pier. The staff was very communicative the whole time via text with me and very flexible with my late check in also. Cleanliness inside of our room and in the common areas as well.

We were just looking for something downtown close to everything where each of the 3 of us could have our own bed. This property fit the bill perfectly. Each of us had our own room and a queen sized bed which was ideal. The kitchen and living room area are not huge but for the small amount of hours we spent in there in the evenings it was still plenty of room for us. Comunications...
