“Amazing place to stay”
The place is super clean, it has every little thing you will need. John was amazing and so lovely - he helped us with everything and even let us stay a bit more and delay the checkout. Except from the kitchen, every room has a great fan that's help with the heat. The kitchen is super hot though.. The location is 5 minutes walk from the river. Great place!!!

“Just amazing”
The property was absolutely stunning, clean and beautiful furnishings! The staff was also so friendly and nothing we asked was too much and it was done with a smile. This property is an absolute gem, accommodated all 8 of us comfortably. And at such a great price! Definitely would choose it if I ever come back to Kenton

I love everything about this house. If I could, I'd make it my own- and include the managing staff. Absolutely everything was provided for in abundance.
