Great location and welcoming people

5 of 5
Submitted: April 23, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
From the initial friendly contact to the quick deposit refund the owner was easy and welcoming. The location is unparalleled; 1.5 block to the beach, then the harbor, Sterns Wharf, State Street and the Trolley to anywhere. It is a clean, warm unit with the best book selection and a lovely garden to escape any weariness. We live in the country hence quiet is important and the unit is quiet and peaceful and the street has little traffic and yet so close to everything! I loved the thoughtful touches: A relative upstairs saying hello, stocking cream and fruit and the willingness to share spices and the fully stocked kitchen. We will definitely come back; and we had a 2.5 year old who was welcomed and it was perfect for her! It is a home away from home.

Great apartment in a great location

5 of 5
Submitted: April 3, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
This apartment was perfect for our family of four. It had everything we needed with the exception of a washer/dryer, which would have been nice with two young boys. The unit was clean and nicely appointend and the garden/yard was small but lovely and private. The owner was very sweet and we enjoyed meeting her.
The first night we did hear some noise through the wall of the neighboring unit but after that it was pretty quiet with only an occasional thump heard from upstairs.
The best thing about this property is it's close proximity to the beach, state street, the warf, or harbor. It is an easy walk to all these places. So nice to be able to walk where you need to go and not worry about parking.
We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it.

Owner's Response: Thank you Donna. We enjoyed having you and your family. It was fun hearing the squeals of your children searching for their Easter Baskets on Easter morning, it brought back precious memories. Still searching for the elusive egg! :) Thank you again for booking with us. Please come again.

We stayed here because it was within easy walking distance of the train station, the beach and State Street. It was quiet, and comfortable for the three of us. Everything was as described and shown, and we would recommend this to anyone wanting a sweet place in a central location.
