Historic Arts District Gastro Loft

What an amazing space! My husband and I stayed here for a weekend getaway and had the best time! The Loft was Immaculate and had everything we needed. Sage was a phenomenal Hostess and made sure that all of our questions were answered long before we even arrived. The location is up and coming and has a lot of promise. We will definitely be back!

The place was very clean and nice, the area surrounding. The location was in a pretty run down area and a lot of unhomed people congregated in the park across the street.

The Gastro loft is a super modern space that has lots of natural light and all the amenities needed to make for an at home feel. Located close to many local attractions and beach access. The host/manger was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with questions. Highly recommend this space for a weekend getaway! Definitely will be a return future guest.

Great loft!

The Gastro Loft was great! Everything was clean and taken care of, I would definitely come back!

We did not enjoy our stay:Cons: if you have weak or strained body, the 30 stairs to get to the top floor (and over 20 to 2nd) is excruciating. Pack light if you stay here. The pain of carrying my suitcase was too much.The place has only two pillows on the bed, no hangers, and although decorated nicely, heavy dark vibe.Not in a good area. More ghetto like. Stereo not working and worst yet, AFTER I paid and UNLIKE every VRBO I've rented, the manager had the NERVE to compromise my security and demand that I provide a picture of myself holding my DRIVERS LICENSE. Unheard of...not staying at the Ritz. Had to call my state and report my DL as compromised. However, the host had no problem bombarding me with messages of how to take care of their property. Returning the FOB key for parking required I hike up 30 stairs.No shampoo, conditioner, or lotion and TV was not free like most VRBO's. The owner was responsive but the mgmt was overkill and demanding.I would not recommend this stairway to hell to anyone and wouldn't stay there for a year if it were free. Feel ripped off and according to my state, requiring my drivers license via VRBO might be a violation and they are checking into it.The owner needs to update the facts of his unit starting with the stairs. My husband was healing from a pulled muscle and broken foot yet they never mentioned a ton of stairs? And the restaurant downstairs operates on limited time. Otherwise it is a ghost area and bad stay.

Had a great stay! Overall, the loft is very well done. Nicely styled. Much more character than staying in a hotel. Bed was comfy. Communication was great. Location is good. Walking distance to a handful of restaurants. Short drive to the beach and St. Joseph where there are tons of restaurants and bars. Few negatives. First being the noisy air handler. Intake is right over the bed. And when it kicks on, it will wake you up. My noise app registered 73 decibels. Small fridge is fine, but having to get ice from 2 mismatched ice trays in a cheesy freezer door is less than ideal. Perhaps a countertop ice maker would rectify the situation. Record player and a handful of old albums is a nice touch, however, there is no speaker. Luckily I was able to pair it with my Bluetooth speaker. But overall, the experience was diminished by poor sound quality. An upgraded player and a speaker would definitely add to the overall vibe. Overall lighting is great, however, the light above the vanity, whilst very stylish, is simply inadequate when it comes to doing hair, make-up, or even putting in your contacts. Perhaps 2 sconces on either side could make it more functional but yet keep the vibe. Overall, we were very satisfied with the loft and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Great place in a great location!

The loft was great! It was clean, updated, and closer to several restaurants. The communication was wonderful too with the host!! Overall I would stay again here!

Very clean and well appointed property. No elevator was a minus but it was a great place for our stay.

Well equipped and nicely remodeled loft. Easy check in, check out process. Excellent communication. If you are so sensitive- an ac return above your head can be an issue. Not the best neighborhood, but overall great experience. Thank you.

Enjoyed the location. Right above the Houndstooth Restaurant, which knocks out excellent upscale food. We dined there one evening and returned the next night for dessert and cocktail (The same dessert we had the night before - It was so good and traditional, I'm not a dessert guy ) Close walk to the The Brick House and The Livery Brewpub. Easy drive to St. Joseph and the beach area. Multiple well maintained public golf courses within a short drive and wineries. The area does border on a somewhat blighted neighborhood between l-94 and the property, but I felt safe. When/if I return to the area I would definitely return to this property. Perfect for a getaway for 2.

Well furnished space, perfect for two. Great restaurants within walking distance. Easy drive to beach and lake. Highly recommend.

The light-filled loft was comfortably furnished and well-equipped. It is in a great location for exploring SW Michigan and the nearby beaches (fun even in the wintertime). Highly recommend!

We truly enjoyed our stay at this unit. It was super clean and very new throughout. Located in downtown Benton Harbor and is right above a upscale restaurant and there are several others nearby. St Joes is just a few miles over the bridge so close to the lake, etc. Highly recommended

Felt like a home away from home!

In town for a wedding. The unit is beautifully updated in a fabulous old building. Just not much in the immediate neighborhood that you can walk to. It was a good location for our needs. Definitely recommend and would stay again.

The property inside was amazing! The location wasn’t what I was looking for but we looked past that and enjoyed the apartment.

Very clean and absolutely amazing loft, would book again

All the indie food venues are good. Art is a happening Money from the outside is rehabbing old buildings The crowd is artsy and progressive Keep an eye on this town
