Family Vacation
Posted Aug. 28, 2023 on HomeAwayThe house was clean and nice. The rooms were perfect for our family of 8 adults. King bed, queen bed, and bathroom on lower level. 4 bedrooms and bathroom upstairs. Beds were decently comfortable. Pillows were thin and flat. We did ask for extra blankets and they were there with extra pillows on arrival. Bedrooms need curtains. There are sheer curtains in every room, so the street lights shine in and you are awakened by the sun every morning. The shower water pressure is awful. There are no hand towels or towel racks or hooks to hang wet towels. There were plenty of glasses and coffee cups, but the cooking pots and pans looked really worn. No driveway. You have to park in the street and move your car to the other side of the street every night. House is not handicap accessible. The neighborhood was really boarded up but there were a couple of houses being renovated. Very close location to the falls and activities. Overall, it was a good stay for our family.

Updates needed
Posted Jun. 16, 2023 on HomeAwayHouse was clean but the floors in stocking feet dirty. Front steps outside very loose and trip hazard have pictures if requested. The floor mat inside front door corners rolled up causing a trip hazard. No place to hang clothes. No place to hang bath towels to dry, 8 in our party ten towels for 7 days. Shower presure very very low. We paid the cleaning fee and were required to strip beds and place in baskets, also bath towels. Required to wash and stow all dishes. My question is why did we pay the cleaning fee. Upstairs bedroom has birds living above the window making that room unusable. Various electric outlets did not work. Dents in the freezer door. Tv system volume control from movie to commercial hurt our ears to loud Wow. Rear burner on stove top has a chip and crack. Non stick pans are terrible, we bought one and left it for the next guest. No dish towels or dish clothes to do dishes, we provided our own. Neighborhood very run down, had to park on the street and move vehicle everyday from odd to even. Upstairs bedroom had a crack in the back of the door. Dish soap seemed watered down.

Sketchy neighborhood, damaged house
Posted May 11, 2023 on HomeAwayMost of the surrounding houses were condemned/boarded up. Damage from previous guests not fixed or even known to owners. Lack of pot holders, hand towels, places to hang towels, dollar store toilet paper. Lots of small things missing that would make the stay comfortable. Needs to be redone with an eye to comfort and convenience.

Good house, just bad area
Posted Apr. 12, 2023 on HomeAwayThe home was as described. The place was clean and met our needs during our visit to Niagara Falls. The United States side of Niagara Falls is very rundown. Many homes are boarded up.

Very Close to Niagara Falls and the Seneca Casino
Posted Jan. 9, 2023 on HomeAwayThe location of this property was great, very close to Niagara Falls and the Seneca Casino. However, the neighborhood was very rough and run down. The home was very spacious but was not clean. Did not have a garbage disposal, bath tub, or hooks & shelves in the bathroom for towels and toiletries. Which made it very inconvenient, especially with children. Our overall rating was 4 stars due to these matters. Thank you!

Very Clean. Good Location.
Posted Nov. 2, 2022 on HomeAwayThis very clean house was an adventure. 6 bedrooms and a bonus bed gave us 4 adults plenty of space. The neighborhood was run-down and depressing. I was nervous when I made a right ontp the one way street, but completely surprised to see the beautiful steps and lovely porch. We loved the combination lock. Everyone could come and go as they pleased. This location is a 3 minute drive from the falls. Parking in the tourist lot or at the park is $10. I give this place a high rating. However, the water pressure was awful. It was so bad I needed to retrieve a pot from the kitchen to rinse my hair with water from the bathroom sink. Plenty of towels and toilet paper. Good heating system. Lousy shower water pressure.
