The house is a terrific house. It has plenty of space. I loved the neighborhood. The only drawbacks were the train that is very close to the house and that it is somewhat far from the OSU campus if you plan to walk. The yard was great! The host was responsive.

Kelso's hideout

We had a terrific stay in Columbus visiting our son at OSU. The house is very convenient to campus, grocery stores and the highway. It is cute and roomy and we appreciated the fenced back yard for our dog.

Great location

Great location for a trip to Columbus Zoo and the Wilds. The property was spacious and well-equipped. Nice, residential area. Just a small FYI, you have to walk through the second bedroom to get to the third bedroom. Not a big deal for us as we were staying with family.

Ohio State visit

House was perfect for our family of 4 while we were in town for a college visit. House was clean and stocked with all the essentials. Our stay was during a heat wave, so the a/c didn’t work quite as well in the bedrooms on the 2nd floor, but the owner provided fans as well as the ceiling fans which helped. Would stay again if needed!

Perfect!

The host Jesse was extremely accommodating and very easy to get in touch with and quick to reply! Very easy to work with. I can’t think of a single thing that was bad. Clean, smelled really good, comfortable beds, comfortable couch, enough linens and cookware available, WiFi available for work, etc. it was all good. Very cute house! I wish we could have stayed longer.

Nice neighborhood

House was as advertised. Easy parking in a private driveway. Easy location to move around from. Would have liked more written instructions either through the app or written somewhere. But host was prompt with communication, just had to reach out and ask. Would absolutely stay here again.

Great house

We loved the house. It was very clean and the outdoor area was perfect. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful which is great for sitting outside in the morning for coffee, which the owner provided with cream and sugar. Communication with owner was prompt. We would definitely stay here again. My ONLY complaint, which is easily fixable, was that the ceiling fan in one of the rooms upstairs was not working. This wouldn’t be something that would negatively affect my review but I do feel it would need to be fixed by summer.

Great location, spacious

Not sure if upstairs bathroom had been cleaned in awhile. There was thick black film in tub. Additionally limited info from host until last minute (one hour before check in) which is unnerving when you are traveling and want to make sure you have a place to sstay. Wish it would have just said that they'd contact an hr before to make communicatiom clearerso9me9ne
