BEST STAY EVER! Inspiring, curated...

Liked: One of the best Airbnb's you can stay in! We LOVED The Stop and didn't want to leave. As a designer myself from San Francisco with two Airbnb's, I am so particular when choosing an Airbnb as want to be inspired! This one had it all! Every common shared area, hallway with art, breakfast dish...you name it was so curated and stylish I took heaps of Instagram photos! The exterior is lovely but the moment you walk into the front door you are transformed! Jazz music was playing, candles flickering, hallway of found art, little plants on windowsills....it was amazing. Owners are former art curators so every space has intention with art, board games, pillows, books, plants....Lea, who was the main person there during our stay, was BEYOND WONDERFUL. So friendly and knowledgeable. She is a college student but works here every summer now for years. Since she's from Galway, she shared great local knowledge with me and my teenagers which we loved. The breakfasts are beyond delicious and beautifully plated. I loved how Lea would change the vinyl records in breakfast room while eating as felt so lovely. Definitely see why they have won so many awards as best Airbnb in the area! It's hard to find Airbnbs that have it all, and this one is one of the best. Enjoy!

Lovely stay with lovely hosts

Liked: The hosts are fantastic and give really solid recommendations that never steered us wrong! The B&B itself is beautifully designed, the parking was great, communication was great and so was breakfast! 10/10 for the blackout curtains!
Disliked: I’m sure this is noted somewhere, but I was surprised how tiny our room was. It had everything we needed and got the job done, but there wasn’t much space to spread out. Another note (and I find this with most if not all B&Bs), but you definitely hear people coming and going. This meant falling asleep to neighboring chatter and waking up to folks leaving early. Not a big deal, but worth noting if you are a light sleeper.
