Great place to stay ! The home was clean, cozy, and had everything you could need from the multiple charging cubes to bathroom and kitchen essentials. If you appreciate antique furnishings this home has it. The backyard was nice and had cute pathways between the many trees and garden. Our dog loved all the smells too ! The host is quick to respond and easy going. Highly recommend !

The home was neat and tidy with comfortable bedding, nice towels, and plenty of everyday dishes/glassware/bake wear were provided to cook meals. Small selection of seasonings along with a Keuring with plenty of k cups and tea available. The thermostat worked well and the lock codes on the door made us feel safe in the neighborhood. The backyard is like a small jungle with pathways thru large flowering vines and vegetable canopies. The host was always quick to respond and lived in upstairs unit, however we never were disturbed with noise. It was a great experience, we would stay again!!!
