The property was wonderfully large with a lot of spaces for people to hang out in. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped with baking, cooking,and coffee appliances. Town was a very short drive away but walkable if you don’t mind a bit of a stroll. The beds were extremely comfortable which is always a plus

Large house with space. Good location

Enjoyed having a lot of space. Only downsides were smokey smells from prior guest and a lot of peeling paint around the property.

Nice home that needs some TLC

Awesome older home that is undergoing renovations. Great presence and nice kitchen. Could use instructions for using the gas fireplaces.

This rental was perfect for our needs; we had a family gathering and could house our adult children and grandsons. The kitchen was very functional and updated. The meeting spaces were great (large living room, small library, and kitchen) and everything was clean. For us the beds are important as there is nothing worse than staying a week in a rental with lousy beds- BUT the beds were great, the water pressure wonderful, and the location was good. Check in was easy enough. The upstairs room AC units were adequate when doors to the rooms were kept closed. Overall great stay!

Nice Home

The house was overall pretty nice, it was perfect for our family. Couple items - the showers were a little gross looking and the internet was very slow. Property is clearly being updated/renovated and there was evidence of that, but it wasn't in the way.

Nice house for family visit

My family stayed in the home to visit our daughters who attend St Bonaventure. The home was comfortable and stocked with basic supplies. There is some work being done on the home since it is older and needs some cosmetic upgrades but it didn't impact us in any way. One thing I was unaware of is both full baths are Jack and Jill style which may not be ideal for some but worked fine for my group. I will likely look to rent this home again when we visit the area for longer stays.

Large beautiful home in great neighborhood close to downtown Olean

Beautiful 1920 home in a nice quiet neighborhood and centrally located to downtown Olean. Spacious home with large well equipped modern kitchen. Lots of gathering spaces, and four large bedrooms with Jack/Jill shared bath per pair of bedrooms. Cold a/c unit in each bedroom. Definitely one of the nicer homes available for short term stays in Olean. The bathrooms are original, but very functional with separate shower and bath in each full bathroom. The addition of keyless entry to covered side entry would be a welcomed improvement.

coffee cups

Awesome house, only issue was cleanliness of the coffee cups. Most of them looked dirty. Other than that we would definitely rent the home again. I have family and friends who are interested in renting it in the future. Also, lots of food items opened (like sugar, spices) I wouldn't use something that is already opened.

Family Stay

My family has stayed in this home twice. The home is beautiful and spacious enough for a group of 8. The kitchen has been upgraded but does lack some basic essentials. As the listing states the home is going through some renovations but there was little to no impact to us other than the hot water in one of the bathrooms was dripping and didn’t actually turn on. I emailed the property manager so hopefully it will be addressed before the next stay.

Gorgeous home but undergoing renovation

The house was comfortable, well equipped and centrally located but it is obviously undergoing renovation. Even though it says there is cable/satellite TV, we were informed bby the guest contact that it did not. The stairs to the 3rd floor were not blocked off and had exposed tack strip from carpet that had been removed. The ceilings were partially scraped but still had peeling paint. Multiple outlets did not work and one of the upstairs bathrooms had no outlets. Renters need to be informed of the ongoing work and asked to stay on the 2 main floors

Very spacious with plenty of room. Well stocked kitchen. New appliances and all the electric gadgets you would need. Great area/room for kids to play. Plenty of parking. Park/playground across the street. Convenient location. Nice quiet neighborhood. Old smelling inside at first but got better as we were there. Heater worked fine. No need for AC for us. Old historic charm. Plenty of living space on first floor. Two dining spaces plus bar seating in kitchen. Still being fixed up so some old rotted wood on outside, windows with chipped paint inside and out. Windows glass could use a cleaning. No outlets in bathrooms but in bedrooms. No mirror in one of the king bedrooms. Bathrooms are Jack & Jill set up. Original tile. Some cracking in showers. Shower doors do not close tight. Beds simple but comfortable. Linens and towels clean with extras in hall closet. Extra blankets and comforters also but we didn’t need them. We would definitely rent again but know that it has some older features.
