Enjoyed very much

The house was cozy and clean. Me and my family had a nice time and the house was down the street from everything we planned to do. The zoo is right around the corner. The beds were comfortable and I didn't have the issue of the water being too hot. I would definitely stay here again if it's just me and the kids again.

Comfy stay

We had a good one night stay. Beds were comfortable and good space to move. Would have liked some blinds or more than sheer curtains in the yellow bedroom to block light at night and a nightstand. We would stay here again!

Clean & Comfy

The property was exceptionally clean and comfortable, providing a pleasant stay. We only stayed for one night while attending a concert in town, but the experience was seamless. The check-in process was efficient, and the property was well-stocked with all the essentials needed for a comfortable visit.

We have stayed at many rentals and this was definitely the best place. It is a very cute duplex. The beds were very comfortable. It is a very quiet neighborhood and appears very safe. And the host communicated wonderfully.I would definitely recommend this place!

Great Stay!

I booked the listing after not being in a not so good part of town for a month so compared to that, this stay blew the other one out of the water. This was a long term stay for me and it was perfect. Plenty of towels, and a little bit of extra supplies like tide pods. Felt like a home for my long stay!

Nice home and location

Clean and cute. Water got very hot which is a concern with kids. Also the listing says there is a futon in the living room so it sleeps 5 but there is no futon just a sofa so I would have not rented had I known since we had 5 people and didn’t plan to make someone sleep on the sofa. Even when I questioned the owner, they replied it was just a sofa. This listing should be updated for accuracy.

Clean

The unit was very clean and cute. The beds are super comfortable! A few mentions, not necessarily cons, the neighbors in the adjoining unit were very loud until very early in the morning (3-4am). Also, when we got back from our event, our entire unit smelled heavily of weed. There are no blinds in the "yellow" room, just sheer curtains, which makes it a little vulnerable at night. The main road by the unit can get a little noisy, bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

Misleading Title, Duplex

There was no mention on the listing that this is a duplex. We heard banging against the wall until 1am. Right on the other side of the wall where we heard the banging was our bed! We would not have booked if we knew it was a duplex. The toilet ran off and on the entire time. About every 5 mins. Anyone cleaning in there would be aware of this. I noticed someone else mentioned the sheer curtain in the yellow room. Literally zero privacy in that room. We actually hung up the throw blanket on that window just to have privacy.. When I took a shower this morning the water kept getting scolding hot randomly. Definitely wont be staying again and people should be aware of this.
