Gracious hosts, beautiful loft & sparkling clean!
I planned a short get-away just far enough from home for me & my husband, as we are very busy and spread too thin too often. I found this *beautiful* loft while searching online, we could not have been happier! The hosts, Karen & Monica, were absolutely fantastic! Karen stayed in communication before check-in & throughout our stay. When we arrived, the loft was very inviting with lights turned on, a few menus from area restaurants, a handwritten card welcoming us & candies. The loft was CLEAN, I am very particular and that was one of the first things I noticed. The bathroom was so clean, it literally sparkled! The loft is exactly as pictured online, actually- it's better. There were plentiful snacks, coffee, teas, etc. available. They have thought of *everything* such as extra toiletries in case something was forgotten, multiple boxes of tissues located in the just right places, OTC medications for sudden ailments, plush throw blankets on the sofas, a fully equipped kitchen and even a sound machine in the bedroom! We had the pleasure of meeting Karen & Monica when we visited their store beside the loft, Cranberry Lane. They are super friendly and were genuinely happy to have the opportunity to host us. I can't say enough good things about our experience and stay at the loft. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about it, the location was perfect for us as well. I hope we can again schedule time in our busy lives to "unwind" and visit Bristol & the Urban Loft again!

Comfort and cozy in Bristol
My wife and I stayed in Loft #2 (Urban Living) for 2 nights and the living environment exceeded our expectations. The spacious, well designed/decorated living quarters provided comfort and the gracious host supplied coffee, snacks, toiletries, etc. to add unexpected convenience to an amazing experience. We were able to walk and enjoy a variety of quality restaurants for our meals and take an easy 20 minute drive to South Holston Dam for a breathtaking nature experience. Parking was convenient as well. I highly recommend Urban Downtown Living Loft #2 to anyone seeking to enjoy Bristol. You will not be disappointed. We will be back ! Thank you

We came to Bristol for the nighttime NASCAR race. We absolutely loved staying at the loft in a town that has so much history and character! The loft was approximately 10 min from the speedway.

We will definitely be coming back and will be sharing this VRBO site with all our friends and family!
