The place was cute and cozy, well stocked with items you would need to prepare and serve meals, coffee, etc. It was located in a very nice neighborhood in Marblehead, next to a walking trail. The bed was super comfy, like sleeping on a firm marshmallow, and the kids slept well on the sofa bed. These are the good things, here are the not-so-good things (just our experience)..
First of all, there are no images currently of the exterior of/around the property (perhaps for privacy) and it confused us a bit thinking it would look a lot like it did in the image of the street with the row houses. We showed up when it was dark and since the place looks so different from pictures on the exterior, I was not sure I was in the right place. The instructions had told me to park in a carport, which was another thing that made me really confused about whether the GPS took me to the right spot, because where I'm from a carport is a covered structure you can park under and there was none... He did come out to greet us in the dark luckily, and pointed to a parking space and said that was the carport. Just in case that helps anyone else not feel like they're totally lost when they get there.:-) None of this was a big deal. The thing that actually left us disappointed was t
This. I am fairly certain the place was advertised as having Wi-Fi, I had seen other reviewers say that they had trouble with internet, but hoped that was a temporary problem. We did sign into the Wi-Fi, but none of us were able to get internet the entire weekend. Both my husband and I tried calling the owner at different times of the day and left messages describing the problem, asking if he could try resetting the router in case that was the problem. The thing that really bothered me was that we never got a call or message back. The internet never did kick in, amd we kept wondering if he was ever going to contact us back about it. There's a nice smart TV as well, but that is not much use without internet, since there was also no cable. Even if he didn't get the message until a few days later, it would have been nice to receive communication and recognition of the issue. If not for the lack of internet and response from the owner, I might have given 5 stars. Adding more data to our plan twice in order to research details pertinent to our travel added cost to our stay. And communication is key.
