The apartment was very clean. Information book was outdated and we couldn’t find sheets for the 5th person sleeping on the futon. Nice to sleep with windows open to hear the river in the background.

Melissa has a beautiful home that we thoroughly enjoyed. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The neighborhood is quiet, peaceful, and felt very safe. The view of the snow-capped mountains from the living room window was absolutely stunning. The rooms are spacious, beautifully furnished, and very comfortable. The beds are authentic wood made and so comfortable.We truly loved our stay and look forward to returning in the future.
