Oakwood near downtown w' Nespresso, Bikes & Bidet.

This is a 1-room studio near downtown Raleigh, close to many good eateries. We are set-up as a 2-nite short term business model, however if you would like to stay longer, we would charge an additional $50 per nite on top of the stated nightly fee. So if you booked 5 nites, we would be adding $50 a nite, or $150 for those extra 3-nites. We will however provide a clean-up and fresh towels for you if you'd like. We can work this extra fee out at time of your booking or when arrival with Airbnb.
