Harshad’s historic home was inviting and comfortable for our group of 5. I had one concern, which Harshad alleviated with his quick response. <br/>We walked a few blocks to the heart of a vibrant district with unique Mom & Pop businesses. Back at the house the kitchen met all of our needs for the meals we shared there. The video games were a fun touch. Since we had the entire house, we enjoyed having space for both gathering and solitude at a reasonable cost. Melissa

We stayed with a larger family group for a wedding and utilized the full space! It was easy and perfect for us, although interior stairs would have been a plus for moving between units. Quick and thorough responses from Harshad throughout! We stayed here with our wedding party prior to our wedding and it was a perfect space for 6 people! The host was amazing and worked with us to get early check in last minute which was a lifesaver and the home itself is lovely! It needs a little TLC with some maintenance things we ran into but the host was so kind and helpful regarding anything that came up! The area itself is also amazing! Walkable, lots of food options and a great bookstore around the corner. Great stay and host!
