Very good

The property was mostly clean and in good repair. Carefully decorated and renovated, for the most part. Plenty of towels, blankets, etc. and everything we needed in the kitchen. Neighborhood was quiet and safe, even staying on a weekend.My main complaint was the full bathroom on the second floor. The vent fan was so loud we didn't use it. Instead, we cracked the window. It seemed like it has been an issue for a long time, based on the mold in the shower and around the window frame. It needs some love. There is also a big hole in the back deck with a piece of lawn furniture placed over it. And the lawn had not been mown in at least a week. Complaints aside, we enjoyed our stay. Thanks!
