4th of July gathering

Very large house with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths along with laundry facilities. Off street parking. Very enjoyable back deck. Convenient location to university of Albany. Older home so difficult to call pristine. But for the low price point very worthwhile and a pleasant place to stay.

Roomy Cape in Quiet yet Conveniently Located Area

We enjoyed our stay in this roomy Cape in late October. The three and 5-year-old grandchildren loved the toys kept upstairs in a small bedroom with a child-sized bed. The kitchen was well stocked with spices, coffee, etc. Our host was very responsive, friendly, and helpful with some issues/questions. I feel that the sheets and towels need updating, and a couple of maintenance issues need to be addressed.

Nice location, house needs work

The stairs inside squeak something awful, stairs out side are grown over, tiles in kitchen and both bathroom s are loose, dangerous! Never been to a place with so many signs!!! The washer had a dirty towel in it and the dryer was full of towels I ended up folding. Sign on the washer discouraged us from doing anything but a small load and even read the we should go to the laundry mat. Part of the amenities and a reason I choose this one was a washer and dryer!?

Get what you pay for

I will begin by saying we were looking for an inexpensive place to stay when coming in for a memorial service. We got what we paid for-low price and three bedrooms, but the other reviews were spot on in a lot of areas. It was close to town which was nice. Quiet area, and it was on a creek, I think. Across from the college, and I think would be perfect for a young group coming in for a game. For us personally, I think some updating and cleaning would go a long way. Leftovers were left in the microwave from sometime. Garbage cans full and sitting at the street. We did communicate downstairs shower was clogged, and feel certain that will be taken care of for next guests. The bed was comfortable! So that was a plus. Had extra sheets but couldn’t find extra pillow cases. The closet doors were coming out of track and couldn’t sit on back porch because of over growth and mold. The ice maker worked well and glad they had an iron and ironing board. Signs everywhere-I mean everywhere! But I am sure it’s better to have signs than assume people have the sense not to do specific things!! But, feel it could be done with a little more taste. Contact responded in fairly timely manner each time. I did receive sign in stuff a few hours before arrival-but coming in from states away was a little concerned on the delay. But no problems getting in. Like I said, no cutting remarks, or slamming the place-I as a tenant just like details before arrival-so here to help those coming after me if I can!

Generell unbefriedigend. Keine Empfehlung. Wir würden auf keinen Fall wiederkommen. Am besten mal die kritischen Bewertungen anschauen, diese sind sehr aussagefähig… ich erspare mir Details.Die 10/10 Bewertungen sind nicht nachvollziehbar und müssen ein anderes Objekt gemeint haben. Außer der schnellen Kommunikation fällt mir nichts positives ein.

Nice, older place that I would not call pristine

The house was what we needed for 8 adults to stay, but I think pristine is well overstating it. The floors were dirty, there were cobwebs, light bulb out, bathroom painting was not finished, things were not folded well and put into places and much of furniture in it is old and used. Also the creek and steps down to it are overgrown and you can't really see it from the deck. Having said that the location is nice, central and quiet.

Great house. Beautiful location. Lots of space.

Had a great stay. Only concern was the 5th bed was maybe 4 feet long. I understood smaller bed in the description to mean cot size, but not toddler size. Ended up with a blow up mattress and had a great stay with 5 adult men. Creek was beautiful to see in winter. Great spot, great access to Albany and plenty of places to eat.

Quiet old house

The house is quiet and clean, is in a quiet residential neighborhood and was close to where we needed to be. It’s spacious and the owner was very responsive when I messaged him with questions. But it’s a very old house that is drafty and dark and has very old furnishings.
