The host was very easy to deal with and very straight forward. I would recommend anyone looking at this place to stay there it's in good location and good neighborhood
We felt welcome and comfortable in this home. It was perfect for me and my 2 friends. We all felt it was a great place to stay and met all our needs. We would definitely stay at this home again.
The house smelled like smoke. There was finger or toe nails in one of the cups. Just better cleaning. Nice house setup was good. Communication was good
It was a good stay for our weekend of nephews wedding at old school venue. Some minor issues and things but host was informed of them. Host was wonderful of contact and answering of questions. I would stay again, he was a great host .
