South Raleigh Duplex Loft & 1.5 baths - Right!

AllieRating, 5 stars1 week ago

This was one of the best places I’ve stayed at! The area was clean and looked even better than the photos. It was so serene and was a nice oasis away from our busy schedule. Rob was the perfect host who was responsive and friendly. He even invited us to the neighborhood block party he was hosting! We would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back the next time we are in town.

KristyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We loved Emily’s BNB. It was clean and well maintained. Everything matched as described. Emily was proactive in communication to help us easily find the cottage in the dark. The neighborhood was quite as well cute. Easy access to anywhere in the Raleigh area. We appreciated the extra little touches like filtered water, ice cube trays filled, qtips, and body wash in the bathroom. We will be back!
