Convenient location

Home was located in a nice neighborhood and convenient to the college 15 minutes away. Property was clean and used basically to sleep. Parking was somewhat congested so if you have more than one larger vehicle it might be an issue. This was addressed in the listing itself so I went expecting this. I would stay here again.
