The home itself was lovely, obviously newly remodeled and decorated. But there were several things that we had difficulties with. When we arrived, the light that lit the stairwell entryway was burned out. This stairwell also led downstairs to the basement living space (with the foosball table and washer/dryer where you are required to go to start towels at the end of your stay), so really was a safety hazard.The other thing I would mention is the location. It is not in the best part of town and we actually had some concerns about the security of our car. The gravel lot in the back was very isolated when we were there (it was a holiday), but the street parking in front of the house looked like a less secure option so we ended up parking in the gravel lot in the back. Thankfully, we didn’t end up having any issues. The host was very responsive - which was impressive considering it was a holiday so she was clearly watching the app to make sure we got settled in ok. We appreciated that.

The house was very clean and organized. There were extra blankets and a large washer/dryer set up in the basement. We loved the lunch buffet at the nearby Indian restaurant. The host responded readily with responses.
