Wow! Great location, great space!
We really enjoyed our stay. This location is awesome - walking distance to historic Hyde Park with shopping, dining and coffee shops. Also could walk to Camelback Park which has a ton of trails. This space was perfect for 2 people and was very well stocked. Would stay at this place again for sure.

Comfortable stay in quiet neighborhood.
Comfortable and nice modern furniture. Heated bathroom floor. Easy to use heater. Nice smart tv. Personal preference would be to have room darkening shades on windows. Quiet at night. Snacks and drinks for guests nice touch.
