Overall, the property is well represented with the online description. Communication from the host was exceptional and the check-in / check-out process were a breeze. Recommendations for local restaurants and attractions were provided, which were fantastic. The property is large and our five adults had plenty of space. We had a large vehicle with us, and street parking was never an issue.
A few points for consideration for future guests:
- The neighborhood seems to be in transition, and walking around after dark made us uncomfortable at times.
- There is a small shopping center behind the home and an alley to one side; including some fast food options. On more than one occassion we had people screaming in the middle of the night (2-4am).
- Garbage pickup was also a frequent occurence for the shopping center behind the home, often occuring in the early morning hours (5-6am).
- The house is old, and while well preserved, there is little to soften the noise the creeking of the wood floors.
Overall, these concerns were mild, but they definitely contributed to some sleepless nights. There were a few other concerns noted about the property, but we made the owner aware and they were addressed immediately. The HVAC was also not working when we arrived, but we were informed ahead of time and someone was scheduled immediately to address the issue. Communication with the owner was definitely appreciated.
