Oakwood near downtown with Nespresso, Bikes & Bidet.

This is short-term model. We only rent the studio for 2-nights at a time. If you want to stay here longer, you will have to make a separate booking for another 2-nights. We will however provide fresh towels after 2-days. time.

This Studio is a pretty new space on the 1st floor of our townhouse. It has it's own private entrance which will only be used by our guests. Colette and I love to travel and the over-all bedding comfort is at the top of our list. We got turned onto Cozy Earth bedding, which offers the most comfy sleeping experience that we have found. The pillows are pretty comfy too.
The Studio has lots of lights all on dimmers and a 9' ceiling. The Studio has a patio looking out onto a landscaped courtyard with comfortable chairs and over-head fan and mood lighting to help you enjoy happy hours or whatever hours. The studio has a full kitchenette including micro, fridge, toaster oven, filtered water, and also a Nespresso maker with fresh cream and an assortment of teas. We also have 2-bikes that we will loan to our guests so you can enjoy the North Person Street Corridor and downtown Raleigh, which is less than a mile away. We are 2 blocks from the free R-LINE bus which cycles thru every 15 minutes from 7 am to 11 pm and takes you thru downtown Raleigh and back. The city also has Lime bikes and Gotcha electric scooters. You can pick up an Uber or Lyft usually with less than a 5-minute wait.

This unit has a 55' Smart Roku TV with a Samsung sound bar complete with subwoofer. We provide the major channels, like Netflix, Starz, Showtime, HBO, Amazon Prime, and too many more. The Pandora and YouTube are with out commercials. Access Google to find what stations are offered thru Spectrum. For example, Showtime is channel 550 in the guide. NFL is 310 and 13.

We often find that people leave early, if that is the case and you would like to get in early, say 10:ish or so, we will work with you.

We have had a few other VRBO units over the years and had the distinction of being the No. 1 rated short-term rental properties out of 466 in this area in the past. We also have 2 other properties currently being offered thru the VRBO site. Looking at these other properties, you should be able to get the flavor of what you might experience from our hosting style while staying at our "New Downtown Studio".

"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. Because of my allergies, I am exempt to the service dog rule that says anybody with a service animal can bring their pets into a property. I have covered this with VRBO and they have granted me a pass because of this affliction.

All eligible people, from everywhere are welcome in our property.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned apartment, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A kitchenette is outfitted with a stovetop and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment.

Fantastic stay
We went into Raleigh to meet up with family nearby on our way to New Bern. We were excited to stay in this studio because it looked great. We were NOT disappointed. Everything was so well thought out. The host was very communicative and was a gracious host. The property was exceptionally clean and the amenities were as listed. They even had coffee and fresh cream for us! We would 100% stay there again when we visit Raleigh. Probably one of the best stays we've had. Would have loved to stay longer!!

Charming Studio Stay
We visited for the Hopscotch Music Festival and probably couldn’t have found a better place to stay. The studio is very cute, comfortable, and makes great use of a small space. It’s a short walk to downtown and nearby restaurants. The owner was very kind and responsive and we felt very welcome. Highly recommended!

Quick, quaint weekend
Quick trip to the Raleigh area for our daughters baby shower. Great neighborhood…walking distance to coffee, ambience, good food. The unit is small, but thoughtfully appointed and Tom was a thoughtful host programming my husbands favorite music to be playing in the unit for our arrival after a longer than usual travel day. We will definitely consider staying there again:)

Overall this studio was one of the best I have stayed at. It’s so close to a lot of things very walkable. When we arrived we were greeted with music which made it feel more homey. We even got to chat with the host who is very sweet and kind. If we are ever in the Raleigh area again we would love to check and see if this studio is available!

What a great property and host! I felt very welcomed during my stay in Raleigh for a conference. This suite was comfortable, clean, and even had my favorite music on when I first walked in. It was also a very pedestrian friendly mile from my conference venue. It was a beautiful and convenient stroll through the capital each morning/evening. I definitely recommend this room if you're looking to easily explore downtown Raleigh and its surrounding, trendier neighborhoods either alone or as a couple. You'll have access to a well-priced, but 5-star home base during your visit.

We entered the studio and were met with lovely music and wonderful lighting.

We felt at home in a peaceful environment that included a beautiful porch with gorgeous flowers. We will definitely stay here again!

Great location in Raleigh
Studio was in a great location for where I needed to be that weekend- minutes from downtown Raleigh. The host was very communicative and responsive. There were some issues with getting in (code provided did not work) but we were able to figure out a solution. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great! It was pretty loud one evening from music playing above, but the host provided a noise machine and we just turned up the fans to drown out the noise. Room could use some dusting and the mini fridge was a bit leaky and did not keep food too cold. Good stay for my first time in Raleigh!

Raleigh is a “bike-able” city! I appreciated having access to a bicycle (included with my stay). Think about it…if you’re able, riding instead of driving has some benefits!

We had the opportunity to spend two nights in this location. The host was amazing. Anything you could think that you would want or need for a short stay in someone else’s property was there. The location was great easy to get too many places. Highly recommend this place to stay for a couple as a nice getaway.

Best Host I’ve Ever had with Vrbo
My wife and I had a great stay! The host was great at responding when we had an issue and was very nice and kind to us. I would 10/10 recommend coming here! It is a cute little place about a 15/20 minute drive from anywhere in Raleigh and there is a Krispy Kreme within walking distance along with some other good places to eat within walking distance. Overall, this was a great place to stay in Raleigh!

A perfect place for our long weekend. Comfy enough to both crash for then night but also hang out during the day between activities. Tom was super communicative and offered tips for places to go around town. So many options for food and attractions nearby and just an overall cozy, pleasant experience.

A perfect place!
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to stay for our short visit to Raleigh. Tom, the host, was probably the most helpful and communicative host we have experienced with either AirB&B or VRBO. He was always available for any questions, offering area dining recommendations, too. The studio itself was clean, beautifully designed and decorated, the bed was most comfortable and the overall space surprisingly ideal for the two of us. It’s in a great location for exploring. Would definitely stay here again when or if we are in the area,
