Rental License # STR2022-11
THE SPACE
Parking: Due to the location on a busy street, extra care is needed when exiting the driveway.
Traffic noise: The street can get very busy/loud at times with traffic, especially on the weekends in the summertime. If you are a light sleeper we recommend having a white noise app on your phone or bringing a sound machine.
DOWNSTAIRS
The large, full kitchen is recently updated with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is fully-stocked with all the equipment you need to make a home-cooked meal. You bring the food!
- Drip coffee maker and french press (no keurig/pods)
- Eat-in breakfast bar seats 3
- Family-style dining table seats 8 people
- Coffee, tea and sugar provided
- Salt/pepper and olive oil provided
Our wood-paneled parlor room has comfy couches and a smart TV to stream your favorite channels. Listen to the radio on our vintage 1961 Magnavox console. Grab a book, play a game or simply relax and chat with friends.
The "Coral Room" has an open closet for coats & clothes and a pull-out couch that serves as an additional sleep space (note: there are no doors to this room). Kid-friendly games, record player and books are in the cube storage. Access to the 1/2 bath.
**Being a quite old 2-story building, Miss Myrtle's temperature can be a little tough to regulate and she tends to be cozy upstairs and cool downstairs. During winter, we recommend bringing slippers and a comfy robe/sweatshirt to wear while hanging out downstairs. Every room has vents which can be toggled to change the airflow to your comfort.
