Just as responsive & pleasant as always!

Second time staying with this owner (first in this property). They have addressed the issues noted in earlier reviews re: noise and finishing the second bedroom. Check-in and check out just as smooth as they could be, house rules actually quite generous for guests, and neighborhood/amenities can't be beat. If you're unsure about booking this place...don't be. You won't go wrong unless you have mobility issues. If you do...well, this is a basement, but check with the owners as they have other properties that very well can suit -- as owners they are just about perfect.

Served us well during our visit. Parking was very tight for our large SUV. All other accommodations were fine.

Lovely neighborhood, great location

The house is beautiful and close to anything you want to do in the Greensboro area. The basement apartment is nicely furnished but not well insulated in the second bedroom. Normal activity from folks upstairs is quite loud in the basement.

master bedroom nice, second bedroom subpar

I arrived at night and it was very dark so I had trouble finding the basement apartment entrance. The living room and kitchen are very nice. It is a pet friendly unit and there was a large brown stain on the carpet. The rest of apartment was clean. The second bedroom ceiling is not finishe with tiles like the rest of the apartment and has large main plumbing pipe for the house exposed. When people are talking up stairs apartment you can hear everything and when they flush the toilet it is very loud in the second bedroom but in the main bedroom you can not hear as much. The neighborhood is nice and safe but I would only stay here again if i only needed one bedroom, not two
