The Hive is very well cared for. The hosts are very particular about ensuring guests have a memorable experience while in their home. Part of the customer’s journey, besides being in an idyllic location, is experiencing the interior furnishings that display several one-of-a-kind pieces of furniture art, collectibles from the 7 countries the hosts have lived in.
If guests plan on booking longer stays, more than 2 calendar weeks, a cleaning crew will service the home every two weeks to ensure maximum guest satisfaction. No one wants to clean a home during their vacation, but everyone enjoys an orderly and clean environment to spend time in. Hosts will arrange cleaning directly with guests.
Hosts welcome mid-term rental guests, too. Families that are looking for temporary housing, in one of the top locations to live in the city with easy access to the mountains, with all amenities, including a fully stocked home for a family of 6, The Hive fits their needs. The Hive is pet friendly with a gated garden. However, the hosts would like the flexibility to vet pets that The Hive can accommodate, depending on the type/size/noise/shedding/potty trained, etc. Hosts prefer to discuss with potential mid-term renters directly whether their pet will fit the requirements. For mid-term rental inquiries, the hosts request guests to inquire directly, as mid-term rates are other than the published, and are set monthly. These monthly rates fluctuate from higher in the summer/winter and lower in the spring/fall months.
If you are looking to spend your best holiday, in a fantastic location in the mountains, in a beautiful house to call home, look no further.
