Hometown visit

The Other House is a cute and quirky place where we instantly felt at home. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked as if all our needs were anticipated. We would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the Capital Region. The backyard hill is a little steeper than the photos make it out to be, so throwing the ball with the pup was not possible.

An interesting place

We arrived and didnt know what to expect. Everyone proceeded to choose the room that seemed to just fit. We enjoyed the opportunity to sit fireside and plan our days and even had a cook out. Nobody had any complaint about the house. If it were my property i would suggest a no shoes policy. I cant think of any other place i would prefer to stay . It was safe, the neighbors were very nice and our host was the best. Thank you for everything.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Berraz-Cole

Host profile image
Phil is a drafting engineer that works in Albany. Originally from Buffalo. Go Bills!
Brenda is a nurse and a Real Estate Salesperson with Keller Williams. We have 2 children.
We live locally here in Troy. We have owned the home since 2004. We personally lived in the home for 12 years. We are close to many of our neighbors and look out for one another. We love the home and could not sell, we simply outgrew the home. After some experiences being landlords we decided to try being hosts. We know that there must be decent people out there that would respect our home.

Why they chose this property

We are the last house on a dead end street. We are minutes from downtown and Albany.
Close to everything and three floors of living space. Able to make big dinners, grill and bake. Pet friendly. Great price for the value. Please check out our reviews, Very few whole houses to rent.

What makes this property unique

Wooded area but city living. Please note we do not charge a cleaning fee as we feel it is part of the business. Also, we do not charge a pet fee because pets are part of the family
