We had a phenomenal time and enjoyed the house. It is very spacious and clean! Quick commute to downtown but the area was a tiny bit sketchy. Overall it was a great house with history and we look forward to booking it again in the future!

We absolutely loved staying at The Purple House. It was very relaxing after being at baseball games for our son each day. It was very homey and loved just hanging out in the living room watching the Olympics.

Beautiful Home, plenty of room for all. Easy access to highways, public transportation.

The Purple House is Instagramable; beds were comfy. But that's about as good as it gets here. A few of our issues: The chain/padlock/manual sliding gate to parking were very difficult to manipulate, is poorly lit at night, and unsafe in case of an emergency b/c you have to keep it locked. There was no welcome note/bottle of water/wine/instruction book; no film in the polaroid camera. Coffee maker was filled w/ water w/mold spores. Window in Jack-and-Jill bathroom was stuck open. (The mgr sent someone to fix these two issues.) The fridge took 12 hours to cool. The freezer had one tray of ice when we arrived & no bin for a bag we bought. Pots/pans/utensils are old & need replacing. Craftsmanship in the kitchen (and elsewhere) is shoddy; the hood and shelves are crooked. There are cracks in the tile and countertop. Dishwasher is flimsy, cheap; one of the wheel brackets and the kick-plate came off. Everything felt just a little dirty & we awoke each morning to mouse droppings along the back of the kitchen sink and near the coffee area (we didn't leave food out). We lost power for a few hours after a tornado, but there were no flashlights or candles. All bedroom fan lights need a separate switch b/c the cords are hard to reach; all lights in the house need dimmers. The shower/tub is too small, bulbs were burned out, toilet paper was ultra-thin and cheap; one of the towel hooks was pulled out of the wall anchor. Bummer to leave a review like this, but I had to be honest. :(
