    My son goes to LaTech and I live in Southern California so the Lewis house was the perfect answer. It was so comfortable, cozy and spacious. The home is a beautifully restored masterpiece, a step back in time. We relaxed in the salon, found goodies in the kitchen, and felt very at home. I would choose this over a hotel, even a suite, it was so lovely and priced fairly. I will definitely go back.

    The place was very clean and certainly had a period feel to it. There are a few minor things that can use updating, but overall had a good experience with it. We had the house to ourselves which made for a very home like feeling to it. I am already making plans to go back.
