About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Charming, large 2 bedroom family-friendly unit within blocks of downtown Marion.
Coming to town for a kids tournament? Or catch your favorite band at one of our local, quaint pubs? Trying to find that one-of-a-kind antique bread box? You can do ALL of these things then return to the unit to enjoy dinner(prepared by you in the fully equipped kitchen or carry-in). The bedrooms separated by the large kitchen give all guests a good amount of privacy. Stream your favorite shows with the wireless internet and then retire to the comfy beds made with fresh linens.
Morning will afford you countless opportunities to shop uptown (walking distance) or ride the trails on a host provided bicycle.
If you find you need something that I haven't provided please call me. Please note this unit is on the backside of a duplex. Because of this you may experience some noises associated in a multi-family unit.
If you need suggestions for anything from restaurants to where to find that bread box, please reach out to me. I plan to go the extra mile to ensure my guests are repeat visitors!!!

Nice space!
This was a great place for us to stay while visiting family in Marion. Clean and spacious with good amenities and some extra nice touches from the host. Neighborhood is quiet and the host was easy to contact. Will stay here again!

Very misleading
We checked in to discover the so called quaint accommodations we instead run down, shabby and just plain dirty.
The location was what brought us to this home, and being right in Marion was perfect for our trip. The space was good, attached to the back of a home but private. However, the space was not very well cleaned- floors were dirty, and hadn't been mopped in a long time. When cleaning up after our infant's meal, a quick wipe of the floor with a baby wipe came up black. Allergies started to flare up for most of our family (who are not very sensitive), and we tried to spend most of our time out of the house.

Stay at Marion
Was a nice place to stay. We thought there was a pull out bed in living room but it was just a couch. We were there just to sleep so didn't spend much time.
Ivy was very attentive and helpful throughout. The home was as described and shown in listing. Master bedroom was spacious and a comfy bed. The second bedroom, the kids called it their clubhouse, was cute. Appreciated the coffee, snacks, extra towels available, and fans for bedrooms. We enjoyed listening to records, sitting at the cute bistro set on the front porch, and walking around the super cute town. Uptown Coffeehouse is a must! Would stay here again.
The host was very prompt in communication and responding to inquiries. The apartment was darling and perfect for my girls trip with my daughter. Would absolutely stay again.
