Very clean, charming place. Betty is wonderful. We hit the blueberry harvest and picked our own morning blueberries every morning. Outdoor space just lovely with hummingbirds. No kitchen sink or stove but the large toaster oven, coffee makers and microwave made it all work. Around the corner to many restaurants of world cuisines.

Betty”s place was clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay there again.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2022
The owner Betty was great, very responsive and provided great information regarding check-in. She baked us a banana bread and provided coffee and bottled water. The apartment is roomy with tons of potential. The bedding , towels and bathroom were clean. The apartment itself is in need of a complete facelift. The entire place needs painting. The area rugs are dirty and frayed. The doors, baseboards and moldings are scuffed and dirty. The furniture is a mishmash of antiques and very tired pieces. I have rented over fifty homes over the years and have not given a negative review until now. If Betty wasn’t so accommodating the rating would have been less.
