About this apartment rental
This is a 3-story condo about 6/10ths of a mile from downtown Raleigh and the Governors mansion is 400 yards from our house, so a safe part of the city. Colette and I love to travel and the over-all bedding set-up is at the top of our list, we got turned onto Comfy-Earth bedding that offers a fiber based bamboo sleeping experience, second to none.
"Service animals" that are hypo-allergenic and smaller than 15 lbs. are OK, I have an allergy to most dogs, i.e, German Shepherds, Retreivers, Labs, so those types of dogs are not allowed in our properties.
If you decide to rent from us, we try to get people in early on the day of and you can check out late.
Note, if you are booking for1 nite, the fee is $525 for 1 nite and we don’t do 1 niters on the weekends unless we get right up to it and have not had a booking. We have a 2 night minimum during the week, mainly because of the cleaning fee to stay on top of things.
Our condo was built 3-years ago and we ended up purchasing the model unit, so it has a few more bells and whistles than the other units. We have a 2-car garage so you ll have a place to keep your car while you're here. Our house has 72' smart TV with built in wall speakers and sub-woofer. We carry most of the popular media services, Netflix, Showtime, YouTube premium, HBO, STARZ, Prime, Radio Paradise and Pandora. You can access various other channels like Showtime, HBO, Cinemax and the like by referring to the Google. Showtime for example is 550. We also have Gotcha scooters here in Raleigh.
This new 2-bedroom condo is 1800 sq. ft. located in the Oakwood part of downtown of Raleigh. The unit has 10' ceilings and has a large spacious feel to it. It can sleep 6 as we have a pull out full sleeper sofa in the living room and a king sized bed in one of the bedrooms and a queen in the other. We have a very interesting alleyway which has a European feel to it, especially at night. Colette and We have been Airbnb Super-hosts for 7 years now and have had over 2000 different travelers pass thru our (4) editions.
Both of us had been wanting to be B&B owners earlier in our lives and it morphed into this Airbnb experience for us. One of our (4) VRBO units, "Peaceful Home W' saltwater pool" had the distinction of being the No. 1 rated short-term rental properties out of 466 in this area. a few years back.
This house is set up with an Airbnb on the lower floor. If you rent this unit, you will be on floors two and three. We have put 10' of insulation between the floors so as to not disturb the people downstairs, but we do ask you to tread lightly. We also have a Pac n Play, if you need that
We can only accept some types of small hypo-allergenic type dogs here.

Went for the weekend to Galxycon and the location was perfect. Check in w Tom was smooth and informative. Really loved the outside sitting area for a good wake up coffee and great pics for our cosplay for the event. Highly recommended!!

Beautiful condo with gourmet, well-stocked cooking kitchen, convenient location, garage parking and well kept grounds. Tom met us when we arrived to make sure we knew how to access all of the amenities and offered to pick up anything we needed!

We had a great extended weekend enjoying my son's wedding with family. The location was terrific and the place was clean and spacious (we had several extended family stop by and kitchen/living room area was awesome for this.)
Only minor issues were that the garage was tight (could only fit one of the two cars we had with us - but street parking and parking lot across the street was helpful) and we had some trouble figuring out how to work the TV (may have just been us - lol). Tom responded quickly to any of our questions.
We would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.

Enjoyed our stay! Owner VERY friendly& helpful- great communication. The 3 levels were nice for the 4 of us. We would definitely stay again. One more bedroom would have been ideal but my son slept on the sleeper sofa and said it was fine.

This property is in an excellent location. We enjoyed walking the short distance to downtown Raleigh and experiencing the wonderful restaurants and shops. The condo was perfect for our group. It is very nicely decorated with a great porch and living space. Tom was very helpful with instructions for accessing the property and useful details regarding use of electronics, washer and dryer, etc. I would highly recommend!

What a wonderful little getaway! It was a quick stopover for my family and me on a road trip but Tom really took care of us and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we need. Such a welcoming place and host. Thanks!

We started our day at 4am. We texted Owner (Tom) so he could plan for our arrival. When we arrived at the condo, he told us he was just finishing up inside. We sat in our car and waited for 15-20 minutes. Tom opened the garage door and walked us through the condo, explaining the various house rules. The house is in good shape, although the upstairs carpet is worn and stained. (Parts of it were wet.) In the kitchen, where there is a desktop computer, Tom specifically stated that the computer should remain "open to the Google page." Later, we thought about the computer camera and put the sock that Tom designated for the dishwasher (he explains the dishwasher and sock in the walkthrough) over the camera. Tom lives in the condo when it's not being rented through VRBO, so there are many personal effects located throughout. The bathrooms are modern and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking, although we purchased and used our own food, drinks, etc. There is another rental unit situated below this condo. It is on the ground floor and has its own front door. We are not sure why, but Tom requested access to it through our condo. As for sounds from the other unit, we heard a baby crying a couple of times; otherwise, it was mostly quiet.
Over the course of our stay (five nights), we saw Tom on the property at least four times. Often he would sit on the bench situated right below the upstairs patio. This made using the patio difficult for us. One time our dog started barking when he saw Tom. We texted Tom and asked him if there was a problem with the property. He replied there was not. Another time we were walking our dog at the side of the condo and saw him walking with another person. We said hello, but he didn't acknowledge us. Later, I remarked on seeing him and he said he "was on the move." He doesn't seem completely comfortable with others staying in the condo, or at least not for the length of time we were there, which is probably why he texted frequently and was on the property so much. We have stayed at a lot of VRBOs in a similar price range and have never experienced this level of interaction from the owner. Typically, the owners have provided a list of rules and the keys and that's it. As with those properties, we respectfully followed the rules at Tom's place and "left it as we found it." We realized that personal downtime and privacy is very important to us, which is why we were not a good match for this property.

We really enjoyed staying here. Tom, the owner, took pride in making it a great experience for us, including leaving some refreshments in the refrigerator and setting up some great music on their whole-home entertainment center. Our kids (and my wife) loved the decor and it was in a great spot to enjoy the city. We will stay here again when we come back to Raleigh.

We enjoyed our stay. The home is clean, spacious, comfortable, and very nicely decorated. The location can't be beat. Tom, the owner, was very helpful and provided the information we needed to make our stay in his home comfortable. Check-in and check-out process was easy. I highly recommend this property. If I return to Raleigh, I wouldn't stay anywhere else.

My family and I (wife, two young children) rented this home for a weekend while we saw some real-estate in the RDU area. The townhome was exactly as advertised, all the bedrooms, bathrooms, living spaces, etc. were spotless and well maintained. The four of us easily fit in the home whether we were eating in the kitchen or dining area, watching tv in the living room, or relaxing on the second-floor balcony. The garage parking and grassy areas were great perks as well. Tom, the homeowner, was terrific the entire time, very thorough with getting us into the place and making sure we had all we needed including recommending restaurants and sites for the kids. The location couldn't be beaten - quiet yet still right in the middle of everything. I highly recommend staying here and will look to book again when we come back soon.

I had the privilege to stay at the beautiful home located in the heart of downtown Raleigh. Communication was quick, easy and helpful. The home was clean, spacious and luxurious. It was fully stocked and we lacked nothing. The surround sound was unlike any VRBO I have had before in a rental home. I would highly recommend this home and have already requested to book it again!
5.0
Tom was a fantastic host. The home was exceptionally clean, both surfaces & clean air circulation, which was super important to us during the pandemic. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful & comfortable home that's also in a great location. We'll definitely book this place next time we're in town.
