We stayed two months while relocating and buying a home. Grand Welcome quickly supplied a dresser and re-glued loose doorway strips, but a persistent musty sink odor remained.The kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms were clean, but appliance maintenance was lacking. The washing-machine dispenser and dishwasher filter had heavy buildup; the refrigerator filter needed replacing. A missing bed-frame foot left one side of the master bed six inches lower.Three issues affected our stay:Traffic on Due West NW was constant, with cars accelerating or idling nearby day and night.Floors slope throughout the house; the kitchen floor flexes.Uneven stone steps from the rear parking area to the kitchen entrance were unlit because the solar lights did not work. During our final week, my wife tripped and fell, suffering bruises. We reported it but declined a visit with only days remaining. Hard-wired pathway lighting is needed for safety.These concerns matter during an extended stay. Positives include space for a small group, a 75-inch TV, T-Mobile 5G internet, towels, good shower pressure, adequate beds once leveled, and a convenient location near family, shops, and restaurants.The property appears to be an older cottage renovated as an investment. After two months, surface cleaning seemed thorough, but maintenance often followed complaints. Sloping floors may be costly to fix; cleaning appliances and installing working pathway lights are simple, necessary improvements.
