Easy to live in
The owner has fun decor yet has cleared space for guests. We are on a road trip so we came with more clothes than most there for a short stay. The laundry option requires quarters. I agree with another reviewer that the couch is a little more cushy than my preference but my husband loved it. There are two chairs I really did like though. I set up a little reading area with the bedroom chair which was nice when my husband was watching TV or napping on the couch. The tad lower neighborhood rating was due to parking availability but if you are flying in and walking/UBER then no worries.

North Park 1 bedroom
Basically a good stay. Parking was extremely difficult, and Neighborhood is quiet and fairly safe, although not particularly handsome. Communication with owner was minimal, but we had no problems

Fun in the city!
It was a last minute idea for a birthday celebration and our place couldn't have been more perfect. Felt lucky to grab it, easy to check in, modern and sassy in a lovely courtyard. Thanks for the care!

The perfect little getaway
I did not expect to stay at an a place that gave an experience that was so seamless. The transition to travel from check-in and check-out was very easy and the place provided all the needs of a vacation. - kitchen, tv area, bedroom, bathroom Plenty of room for a couple a child I definitely recommend and suggest. I will absolutely will return to this place whenever I come back into town. This experience was a great one.

Why they chose this property

I bought this property the minute I saw it. I fell in love with the zen atmosphere within the garden. You can't help but feel at peace on the property. Along with that, the zen of it stands out in an urban environment. So, I felt the need to share my property on VRBO for others to experience.
