About this property

Back to the 1960's by Downtown

Step back in time and feel a little groovy in this 1960's style apartment. Equipped with so many essentials for life to have you feeling the love. This is a private apartment in a home built in the 1900's.
The space
As soon as you walk through the door you will feel like you just stepped into your own home. That's how welcome you are.
The private entrance is located at the top of the front porch steps. The back door leads to the patio.
No need to worry about getting to the supermarket right away if you arrive late, a breakfast snack is provided. The kitchen is equipped with popular spices, a coffee maker, French press, toaster, blender, gas range top, toaster oven, microwave and a full size fridge.
The restroom comes with: shampoo, body wash, conditioner, hand soap , towels, and walk in shower.
The bedroom comes with a queen size bed for two guests. There are local channels to watch on TV but no cable or satellite networks. There is a blu- ray player. If you have Netflix, the TV is set up for Netflix.
High speed Internet is provided to make your stay more convenient. The code is on the fridge and will be in your welcome letter.
Please be aware heeled shoes or heavy walking is noisy on the poor souls below, hence the name "Walk Softly in the 60's". Please walk gently.
There is a COIN laundry available on the lower level of the house. A screen door located on the south side of the house leads you to the laundry room, also known as "The Dungeon." Laundry soap is provided.
Parking is on the street or behind the house ( there are two spaces, one for the guest in apt. 4)

A welcome letter will be sent to you a few days before your arrival with access information. I will give you the code to enter the apartment at that time. No need to worry about meeting up with me because you do not need a key; it is actually very convenient.
Guest access
The entire apartment, laundry room, street parking, and back patio is available for your use.
Other things to note
This is an entire apartment to vacation in. The house was converted from a one family home to 4 apartments many, many years ago in the 1950's. Being this is a very old house it does have the characteristics of one; other guest in the garden level can hear if you are walking heavily on the floor so please be aware.
