????A Few Things to Know Before You Arrive
We are looking forward to welcoming you to the Historic Gem! To ensure you have a seamless and incredible stay, here are a few fast details to keep in mind:
???? Triplex Living: The Historic Gem is one of three apartments in a historic triplex. As with any well-adored old building, you may occasionally hear light sounds from neighboring units—it’s all part of the appeal!
???? Primary Guest: The guest who made the reservation must be present for the duration of the stay.
???? ???? No Parties or Events: Because we are located in a historic residential neighborhood, we maintain a strict no-events policy out of respect for our neighbors and the building.
???? No Smoking Indoors: There is no smoking indoors, please. However, the porch is all yours.
???? Care of the Home: The Historic Emerald Gem is professionally maintained to a standard we're genuinely
proud of. To preserve the quality of our linens and finishes, please refrain from using bleach-based cleaning products during your stay—our team handles all the deep cleaning between guests.
???? Fragrance-Free Space: To keep the air clear and comfortable for guests with sensitivities, please leave incense, essential oil diffusers, and similar fragrance items at home.
???? Toiletry Checklist: We provide the essentials to get you started! For longer stays, please plan to bring along your personal toiletries to supplement.
???? Giant Groups: Interested in booking the whole home for a bigger group? The other two apartments are
listed separately under our profile—just reach out and we can help you coordinate!
???? Rental Agreement: A rental agreement is required prior to check-in. We’ll send it ahead of your arrival—it’s concise, clear, and in place to protect both events.
???? Family Animals are not allowed
