Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Looks okay at first, but not as functional as desired.
On the plus side: the house is historic and noteworthy and overall looks nice and modern. It's a convenient location. It is well stocked. The negatives: The walls were dirty including globs of something on the wall by the windows, which was especially noticeable because to avoid hitting our legs on the furniture in the bedroom where there was no space to navigate, you have to brush against the walls. (All of us still got our legs on the bed frame in this room). In that same bedroom there were tears and holes in the bedding (the fitted sheet). What made it bad was that we could hear everything from the renters above us (who parked in our parking spot). They took showers in the early morning and late at night, waking up the kids. It seemed like there were so many people there. The walls/floor/ceiling were so thin, we could hear them talking. Also no one slept well because the beds were uncomfortable. The whole place has the feel of looking nice but not being functional. The dining room chairs were hard for everyone to sit in and they needed rubber or felt on the bottom. The dishwasher didn't clean things on the top rack. It's a noisy location from the street (plus someone talking loudly right outside my window at 5:30 in the morning). I never noticed your much I enjoyed being able to go into the yard until this house. The heating didn't seem to work in one bedroom and there's no vent in the bathroom.
