This stay was everything we could have hoped for during our trip to ATL. Nike was great in her communication before and during our stay, the property was exactly as described, it was conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. We didn't want for a single thing while we were there and when I return for this conference next year, I plan to book this property once again. Thanks so much for your hospitality!

It's a lovely little house, very comfortable, very close to downtown Decatur. The neighborhood is full of attractive homes and gardens, a pleasure to walk in. Having two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen--really, not what most short-term rentals call fully equipped--was a luxury. Thank you!

Great place to stay convenient to Decatur

We stayed here to attend our daughter's wedding. House was very nice and right next to downtown Decatur. The only downside was that metal barstools are not that comfortable after a while. Otherwise, the decor was perfect for an arts focused theme.

We wanted some place cozy for a couples weekend to come down for the Peach Bowl. This house was perfect for our needs. Our hosts were in touch with us throughout the day on check in day and even left lights on for us since we were arriving after dark. We would definitely stay here again!
