Wonder time staying at this home and being able to walk to the zoo. The home was small kid proofed so we did not have to worry about our 15 month old getting into anything she shouldn't. The peoperty owner was quick at responsing to any questions.

Positives:
It is close to the zoo, in walking distance.
Nice house with potential.
The upstairs was perfect for my teenage boys.
Negatives:
Not the best area. Much better on the other side of the highway. We went to a park and my daughter go threatened and yelled at by some guy for looking at his jeep. She loves jeeps and he lost it. There was trash everywhere and allot of people hanging out seeming to be on drugs.
Appliances need upgraded or to be properly installed (washing machine fills with water and stops, dishwasher did not clean, dryer took 2 - 3 full cycles to dry a normal sized load)
With a cleaning fee being charged I thought the place would be clean, quite dusty and looks like the windows have never been cleaned.
Master bedroom bed was broken when we checked in and partially collapsed in we while there. Previously poor fix done to home made bed frame support needed some love.
Driveway is quite a pain to pull out of if you have a large vehicle. You may get stuck in the deep and steep gravel when backing out. All the beds and mattresses felt as old as the house.
You will need to haul the trash almost around a block to get it in the right spot or try to take it down front steep concrete steps (which has a hand rail that must be for decoration because it sways a good amount at the top)
Only found that out by asking and had missed trash day by a couple days already being there for almost a week.
Some of the online pictures did not match, the dining room for example was way different with a very light weight table and chairs that I did not trust.
You may want to bring your own dishes and cutlery. The house is supposed to be ready for 8 people but there isn't 8 of much there. There were some plastic knives and forks kind of thrown in a drawer which was quite dirty.
Overall I wouldn't rent again.
Property is conveniently located, so you can get downtown, or on the interstate very quickly. Good property for old college friends to reminisce and catch up. There are six separate beds and plenty of seating to gather around and talk.
