Bar Life
This property was a fun place to stay. Easy walking to restaurants, bars, and grocery store. And now we can say we have fallen asleep in a bar. Our only wish is to have some background on the bar…when/why did it close? What did it look like before the renevations?

Perfect location
This property was so neat. Kitchen was well appointed. Property was neat and clean. It is a remodeled bar, so floors are old, but that adds to the charm. Good distance to area attractions will stay again.

Terrific place.
OK, initially staying in a converted old bar doesn't sound that appealling, but this place is totally refreshed and spotless. If you need a place to stay, as well as a place to entertain friends and family, this is it. It's got everything and the location is terrific.

Great Location
The location was great and the place was clean. The owners even partially stocked the fridge with some pre game drinks which was nice. Very responsive with wi-fi which was great. Had a small hiccup with the air conditioning but they made it right and fixed it in a timely manner Overall if you're looking for an amazing place to stay in a great location I wouldn't look anywhere else. We will be staying again in the near future.
