We had a great stay at Merritt’s place while visiting Syracuse! The home was comfortable, well-equipped, and in a great location for getting around the area. Merritt was communicative and made the check-in process seamless. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches that made our stay even more enjoyable. Would definitely stay again!

My husband, two teenagers and I enjoyed staying at Merritt’s place this past snowy weekend. The apartment is lovely with its original details of the house, alongside the modern updates in the kitchen and bathroom. We would definitely stay again. We are a family that spends time in the kitchen, so we appreciated that it was inviting. It’s spacious, clean, and well lit. I love the new wood ceiling. Beds were comfortable. The city seemed to be snowed in, so it was super convenient to be next to Syracuse’s top rated coffee shop that’s open until 10pm.
