What a wonderful find! For a little city, Council Grove punches well above its weight class – so many historic sites to visit and happenings to attend, and this one-bedroom loft puts you in the heart of it all! It has everything a modern traveler would need. I found the bed quite comfortable, with lovely pillows – unlike the rough and barely serviceable ones at some hotels. The water pressure and heat were fine in the shower. There are also a washer and dryer off the bathroom, but I had no need to use them. That area and a service closet off the bedroom act as a buffer to the second loft at the front of the building. It is 22 steps up from street level on Main Street, but my elderly friends visiting handled it; they just took their time. Off the back, there’s a lovely modern metal deck and stairway down to the alley; it’s quite spacious, with a big gas grill and seating for four around a matchng metal rectangular coffee table with its own fire feature, to warm a cool night’s gathering. I would love to have made use of these, but I was just too busy – perhaps next time! I did rely on the big flatscreen TV to keep up on happenings in the outside world. Really, the only thing I missed was having a box of facial tissues at my disposal, but I think I rely on this more than most. You do not enter from the outside hallway via a key; instead, the owner emailed me the four-digit electronic code to use, two days before I arrived, which worked out fine. Just a lovely place!
