A note on the shower: it has a High Sierra all-metal low-flow head. It is small, black, and sits right at the end of the arm, so a few guests have thought there was no head on it. It is there and it gives a strong spray, just turn the water on.

Great property close to restaurants bars and such of Raleigh. The unit was super clean and looks exactly like the pictures. The backyard is fully fenced making it the PERFECT spot for dogs - our city pups got to run and play all day and loved it. Angelo was super communicative and responded quickly and clearly. 10/10 recommend.
