Nice place for a quick weekend stay to visit our son. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The house was clean and featured some really neat 50's style decor that gave it a unique charm. The backyard space was perfect for our dogs to run around and enjoy.

Interesting property.. definitely retro! Very spacious, plenty of room for us and our two adult kids. It is an older home, so probably hard to completely defeat the musty smell. But they try with lots of air purifiers throughout. Not bad for a single night stay.

After messaging property owner and notifying him that we had found another place while we waiting for the request to be approved. Still went ahead and charged me after notifying him that we will not be staying 2 hours into 24 hour period. Very unprofessional
