Wedding celebration

We were family (6) in town for a wedding celebration. This house was a perfect size for us (number of bedrooms and more importantly bathrooms). Also the location was very convenient to the locations for the various parts of the celebration. Plumbing issues addressed promptly by the host but fortunately only appeared towards the end. Front bedroom quite noisy and neighborhood has its issues, but very convenient to Whole Foods, CVS and many restaurants. Overall quite nice.
