This place was perfect. Perfect location. So clean and comfy. We enjoyed this place as much as any place we've ever stayed. The bedroom was so quiet, and the bed so comfortable, we slept great. Its like everything we could have wanted was there. The balcony overlooking main street was great fun. There was a parking pass, complimentary snacks and waters. Plenty of towels, soap, and a makeup mirror. My wife loved this, as its pretty rare in other rentals. Many try to acheive COZY, this place is truly cozy. We loved this little hideaway, and would stay here again in a minute. Thank You

I really can't say enough about this property. The location is perfect, right on Washington Street, the main thoroughfare in Sonora. The entire town is walkable from here. The property itself is maintained in excellent condition - especially considering that it's well over 100 years old. The bedroom at the rear of the unit is quiet and comfortable. The bathroom fixtures are modern and work well. The full kitchen too has been updated and is in top shape. Every little detail has been thoughtfully considered and seen to. Freshly roasted coffee from a local roaster provided, an excellent selection of teas, bottled water, a basket of small snacks. Numerous candles for a gentle, historic ambiance. We loved the front porch overlooking the street - with lanterns and "twinkly lights" on an automatic timer. Yes, there is a little street noise in the front room during the day. However, like most of the Motherlode towns, the sidewalks are rolled up about 8 PM and the evenings are quiet and enjoyable. I highly recommend this property and look forward to returning as well.
