Convenient location. En suite bathroom. Would be good to have a porch light on so that the door keypad can be seen in the dark.

Very nice room, however i wasn’t expecting it to be like an Airbnb with the host living in the home while we were there! The room definitely wasn’t clean, everything was dusty, there were stains/marks all over the wall and on the curtain. The shower could definitely use a good cleaning as well. The host was kind though and it was okay for our short trip down!

Exceeded My Expectations

I booked a last minute stay with Cheerful and Modern, due to a cancelled flight, and I was pleasantly surprised with the property. Super clean and TONS of space, the host was friendly and very helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Overall, the property was very nice and clean, with a fully equipped kitchenette, bathroom, and living room. Additionally, the owner was quick to respond. There are a few downsides, though. A major one is that the listing on Expedia does not tell you that you share the living space and kitchenette with others. Luckily for me, nobody else was in the room across from mine. Outside the building was very icy due to a rain drain running directly over the walkway. I was in the basement portion of the property, which was quite cold, especially at night.
