I enjoyed my stay here. The house interior is just like the pictures. It's really close to ETSU and the medical center but still quiet. I saw many people walking their dogs and there is a park about 2-3 blocks away. The king bed was very comfortable and I always appreciate a washer and dryer. It's comfortable and a keeper.

The decor of this house was outstanding. It was delightful. Perfection. So cute. Perfect little pops of teal throughout. Every detail lended itself to a comfortable, convenient, and cozy stay. A perfect balance. The bed was very comfortable as well as the pillows. All windows had adjustable privacy coverings. Adjustable lighting throughout the house. Very responsive hosts. Easy check-in. Quiet street very close to Main Street, but off the beaten path. I loved it. Bravo Sanctuary team! Another gem for Johnson City!
