My friends and I stayed here the first weekend in May and it was exactly what we were looking for! Before even arriving we started calling it âthe Instagram flatâ because itâs so well styled. Itâs exactly like the photos, does not disappoint! Clean. Large. Central location. We walked to breakfast, coffee, lunch, shopping, rooftop happy hours, and two fantastic dinners.
The owner, Halie, was super helpful. She answered my parking questions in detail before we even booked the place. When we had a wifi question she replied with the fix within minutes. Which was impressive on its own, but we later learned that she was in the hospital at the time!
Two small items of noteâŠ
1) It is above a bar, which it does state in the listing. It wasnât a huge deal, as my group had discussed it ahead of the trip and agreed we were down for it. But Iâll note, itâs a karaoke bar. So if you attempt to sleep before bar time youâll be too busy laughing your butt off at random terrible off key singers. You can hear basically every word. Night two we decided to lean in it and went down to check it out. Very fun vibe.
2) This one is just me, my friends didnât seem to care at all. But Iâm an always aware of my surroundings traveler. From the time we checked in, and every time we went in and out of the entryway that is inside of the bar patio area, it felt like someone was saying âOh they are staying at the rental upstairsâ, âThey must be staying at Halieâs placeâ, âIsnât the flat so cute? Iâve stayed there a few nights.â, and other variations of âAre you guys renting Halieâs place?â For me, I didnât like everyone around knowing that we were tourist and where we were staying. It made me feel like we were a sitting ducks for potential crime. In retrospect these were just friends and acquaintances of Halie, but it rubbed me the wrong way that everyone knew who we were.
That said, would 100% stay here again! Would recommend. Amazing host! Clean, beautiful property!
