I was looking for a place to stay close to Cutright Park and couldn't have found a nicer apartment or location. We felt really safe as the Bacon Building is right across the street from the police station. Our apartment was very nice, a beautiful mix of historic and modern. We didn't have time to explore the historic downtown but will do so in the future.

We loved the detail that went into turning this building into loft apartments. We felt very safe. The main street is adorable and Nats' is the place to go for coffee and food. The loft was very clean and well decorated. My only negative is the double bed. My oversight when booking. Other than that I would definitely return. Sincerely P.Gillis

Though just a studio apartment, it wants for nothing. Host is extremely responsive, the place immaculate and a wonderful selection of snacks are provided to make you feel right at home. Hope to stay here again!
