A few minor issues
First of all, if you just need a place to stay for a few nights, this will definitely do the trick. Something to know that’s not very clear in the rental’s description, this house is not your own! It’s split down the middle by a shared wall. That being said, we didn’t ever hear the next door occupants, but they were there. Besides that, the house has mostly everything you’ll need for a short stay. The neighborhood is slightly sketchy, but nothing too bad. You’ll hear trains blaring about 15 times a day though.

State Wrestling
It was clean and exactly as described. It does have a full kitchen so you can cook. We had state wrestling that weekend and it was about less then 10 min drive. Casey's is right across the street. Car sat out front on street and we never had any issues. Definitely would stay again.
