We had a wonderful stay! The house truly felt like a home rather than a hotel. It was beautifully decorated and well-equipped. The welcome snacks were a thoughtful touch and greatly appreciated.The location worked well as a home base for day trips to Salem, Plymouth, and Boston. We did encounter one minor issue during our stay, but after contacting the host, it was resolved within an hour. They were very responsive and easy to communicate with.There were just a few things future guests should be aware of. I hadn't realized the property was located in a commercial area, with businesses on either side, and there was some road noise. Fortunately, the air conditioning units helped block out most of the sound.A couple of small suggestions for the host: the listing mentions that shampoo is provided, but there wasn't any in the bathrooms during our stay. It would also be helpful to let guests know in advance that the cold water has a noticeable sulfur smell, as it can take a little getting used to. Finally, providing checkout instructions ahead of time—such as what to do with used towels, linens, and other departure expectations—would make the checkout process clearer and more convenient.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to others.
