Eastside Container Home - Near Train + Downtown Reviews
Cute property, comfortable and funky. Close to downtown. Good amenities. Nice view of an inviting yard and trees. Good vibes. We’ll stay here again.
Great RESTURANTs near buy and close to downtown
Easy access to downtown and campus. A full sized pull out couch would be nice. The TV was also very small, would be cheap to get a bigger one.
