Updated private two bedroom in heart of Montclair

A complimentary bottle of red wine is included with each stay by default. The space is quiet for Montclair yet centrally located. Our cleaner Mikki is responsible for cleaning and preparing the space. She takes great pride in her work, and we’re lucky to have her. The entire cleaning fee goes to her. I travel almost exclusively using AirBnb. If you value a space to be exclusively yours, as I do, this is likely the AirBnb for you. It would be a privilege to host you 🙂. Cheers, Alex
