May 2025

Upon arrival, neighborhood and surroundings not at all similar to home in listing photos. Junk sitting around in multiple close neighbors' yards, un-mown lawns and falling apart homes. One with multiple dogs right behind. Area felt so unsafe, we didn't believe ourselves or our vehicles would be safe there overnight. Phoned host and was politely accused of not accepting 'diversity', then called by the owner and told they lived in Seattle, but we're sure it was 'fine' and they would not refund any costs of the 3 night booking ($800). THEN, they wanted me to send photos showing why this location is concerning! After no fairness on the cancelation policy by offering at least a partial refund, don't ask me to photograph the area & check if your doors were all secured!! They acknowledged the 'dump' of a property with dogs behind them. We had to scramble to find an alternate overnight accommodation and deal with a rude owner...really unexpected and disheartening.

Easy to find, close to ND and an easy 5 minute walk to downtown restaurants and theaters. very nice place, clean and spacious. would've liked to enjoy the back deck, but it was too cold & rainy during our stay. would easily come back here again.
