Summary: As stated in the title, the apt. was located in the perfect location. It was adjacent to the venue where I was having an event, and I was able to check the progress on the set up easily because it was within walking distance. The place had ample room for me, my husband and a couple of out of town guests. Beautiful place..

Summary: I originally chose the Friend House because of it's proximity to the Olde Town Civic Center, and was happy to see it available again in 2024. The place is clean and fresh with enough room for 4 of us to spread out. The area is great for me and the crew with restaurants for dinner and breakfast and brew pubs all within walking distance. Just be prepared for the climb. It's a lot of stairs especially after performing for 4 hours but worth it to not be in a hotel. Our host Regan is quick to respond and very helpful with our questions.

Summary: The renovation of this apartment in a historic building is extremely well done. Be aware that there are several flights of stairs to climb to gain access to the apartment. Our only issue was that the weather at Christmas was unusually cold and the apartment was chilly, except upstairs in the master bedroom. We only stayed one night out of our booking because of a medical emergency so I can’t give a more complete review than these impressions.
