The house is in good working order, it could use a few improvements, (repaint, fan in the shower, holes patched), but for the price, it was perfectly acceptable. It is tall, with two sets of stairs to get to the attic bedroom, that area worked well for our teenagers, but it'd be harder on those who have trouble with their knees. The neighborhood is loud, with a train running by sparatically throughout the day, but we got used to its whistle/horn. The host was communicative and pleasant. The kitchen was perfect for our needs. The beds were comfortable. I loved the couch. We used the washer and dryer which was a blessing to have on hand. The overall cleanliness was sufficient, but we still rewashed most of the dishes and did our own cleaning up before settling in. But I do this everywhere we go, so it didn't seem bad to me.The local waterfall and hiking trail, Tinker's Creek and Viaduct Park, is only five minutes away and is beautiful. The small church around the corner was a pleasure to worship with on Sunday.
