Pros:
Terrific mattresses!
Good/updated kitchen appliances.
Good quality pots and pans provided.
Kitchen basics are here (salt, pepper, some spices, selection of cooking oils).
Friendly neighbors who wave/smile at you.
We didn’t use any outdoor features (we were there in the winter) but the back yard is cute, and there are bikes on hand to borrow.
The host is very responsive.
The next door neighbor manages the property and is very nice and helpful.
Bathrooms and linens were very clean.
Cons:
Moldy smell throughout the home. There are plug in air fresheners to mask it, but it doesn’t work.
Urban location. The street is pretty busy, and there is no off street parking. Parking near the house isn’t always possible. Plan to park half a block, or farther, away. (If we had the address before booking, and looked at the location on google earth, we would not have picked this property.)
Neighbor on one side plays loud music at night. Neighbor on the other side has a dog who barks a lot.
There are 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath and 1 half bath. All the spaces feel small and compressed.
