The flat itself was clean, cozy and the community space kitchen/ dining area was quite spacious. It is great for family gatherings. It is situated close to everything one could need. We loved the decor! Gerard was attentive checking in and answering our questions as they arose. We would will be back!

A beautiful apartment. It was perfect for my father and I for a visit with family.
We would absolutely stay here again! Such an adorable place and fast response time from host. Clear instructions, easy to find, everything was comfortable and cozy. Thank you!
We had a great time staying here. We were in town as my son was part of a sailing certification at the Longshore Sailing School. Everything was in the property as stated and Gerard was very good at following up with our check in and check out. Thanks for a great stay!
We fell in love with Gerard's adorable place - beautifully appointed and comfortable. The master bedroom is quite large and the second bedroom is "cozy" but certainly sufficient. We enjoyed a great family visit, and the atmosphere of the property added to a wonderful weekend. Highly recommend if you're looking for a clean, eclectic place in the Westport area!
We had a last minute business trip to the area and found this perfect spot. Gerard was fabulous in communication and made sure we were taken care of with whatever we needed. The space was clean and quiet, would stay here again!
My family and I had a fun, clean, and comfortable stay! The apartment is spacious and had everything we needed. Also, the location is super convenient! Close to groceries, coffee, food, I-95 and more. Gerard was so nice and so responsive. We would love to stay here again!
This quaint apartment is inside the Old Sacco Mill building. I remember this building having grown up in the area. Completely renovated and beautifully decorated inside. My family of 4 stayed here and it was just perfect. Gerard was available and very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend this property and you are the only guest in the apartment part of the building.
Gerard’s place was a 5-Star experience. It was bright, cheery, and furnished with beautiful artful furniture and accents. It was also very clean and quiet despite being on a busy road. The kitchen was well-equipped and the beds were comfortable. As a host, Gerard was warm and exceptionally responsive and accommodating. Would highly recommend.
Our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 teenagers) needed an affordable place to stay near Westport for 3 nights. This place was great. So much better than any other option we could find. Friendly, helpful host. Bathroom and second bedroom are "cozy" (small)...not an issue for us but it could be for some. Other rooms are a good sizes. Overall, we are really glad we found this place and we'll likely stay here again next time we are in town.
Perfect for my sister and daughter. Just right sized, sunny and cheerful, plus the we-work type of space downstairs was awesome. Across the street from our favorite bagel place, and near Grey Goose, our favorite local restaurant. In town to check on family, so this was a great place to stay. Gerard was extremely responsive, especially when we had a mishap with our keys- he dropped everything and helped out! Five stars!
Cheerful spot and close to what we need to get done in Westport and Southport/Fairfield. Parking lot can be tight during the day time. Right on the Post Rd, but this unit is in the back. A good value, but the bathroom is tiny and if you are tall you might not fit. Big kitchen/work area, little den, and nice bedrooms. A WeWork type of space downstairs that you can use if desired.
Cute, clean and cozy accommodations, exactly as described in the listing. Convenient location close to lots of dining and shopping options in Westport and Fairfield. Host was very responsive and provided lots of helpful information.
The rental was a great option to stay in this part of CT. It was close to everything and offered plenty of space relative to a hotel. Would highly recommend if you are interested.
Great location! Fun decor! Pack and Play for the baby was super helpful. We had a little issue that was resolved very quickly. Responsive property manager. Will definitely check it out next time we are up!
