Nice place but plumbing and lock issues
Management was not very responsive when the toilets backed up and sewage water came into the bathtub while my daughter was taking a shower. Luckily my husband was able to get it resolved and multiple use of the plunger. Then the main bathroom door got shut with the lock button in place. We could get it open today. We tried to get a locksmith to come but we had to checkout before they could arrive. I suggest that management should clean the sewer lines and proved a tool in the garage to pick the door locks. This is an old house even though it has been nicely remodeled. A local manager should be available.

Unfortunate property management of a great home
The home itself was a lovely hybrid of charming older construction and modern kitchen and amenities and a great garden. The check in process was easy, but I didn’t love getting 10 inbound texts from the property management company for a two day stay. That would have been fine, but they sent reminders I didn’t need and requests of how the stay was. When I responded that the kitchen and bathrooms were dirty, they made me send photos then never bothered to reply again. The internet also cut out many times during my stay, making it impossible to complete an important work session. I chose this home thinking it would be a professionally-run unit for my work trip. It’s unfortunate that such a great home with a fantastic garden didn’t have a bit more attention from the property managers.

Loved the neighborhood, the board games and the home it’s self. Bring your own shampoo/soap, they provide powdered formula, it is awful.
