Family Visit

We needed a jumping off point for a trip to visit colleges and Museums in Raleigh/Chapel Hill area. this property was incredibly convenient and had plenty of room for all. The rooms are large, each with its own very nice sized bathroom and walk-in closet. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and the backyard was pretty and peaceful.

CLEAN and QUIET

We stayed here for 5 nights while in town for a wedding. This place is not only clean and quiet, it is walking distance to a grocery store and several restaurants. I LOVE when the hosts supply shampoo, body wash and laundry detergent. The kitchen is well stocked to prepare your own meals and each room has it's own bathroom!! Communication with the manager was easy! I would return here for sure!!

Did not meet expectations

This is a nice home in a great neighborhood and convenient for stays near the city. However, the home simply was not clean, poorly stocked, the TVs did not work properly and the outdoor area was not in the condition shown on the site. We had to clean bathrooms kitchen and kitchen floor before unpacking.

Apologize for any inconvenience. We are upgrading the house outdoors in between stays. For indoors if there is any issue we want to be contacted to address any issues. Simply put, we have contact info inside with direct # for us to immediately come out.

Great location, quiet neighborhood

Overall the property was great. The backyard is covered in trees which is nice, however, that meant cushions and such outside was covered in mold/mildew. The fans in the bathroom are caked in dust - one of the things I look at to determine how in depth a cleaning is. There was a mattress standing up in the closet downstairs which made the closet worthless, but we used only the upstairs anyway. The furniture was ok, but was definitely worn. I loved the layout of the house and overall would stay here again with no problem, these are just small critiques that are easily addressed, but not impactful overall.
