Bachelorette weekend

This space was so beautiful and comfortable for my dear friends who traveled very far to help us celebrate our upcoming big day! It was in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. We never heard a peep from the downstairs tenant. I am definitely recommending this home for my in laws when they come to visit in June for our wedding!!

What a Wonderful Home

The home was so comfortable, clean and well appointed. Our work crew stayed there and said they would definitely stay again. Although the hosts live in the basement floor, they never heard a sound. The only way they even knew anyone was there is that they could see that the car was moved. Don’t worry though, there is plenty of parking. The hosts are very responsive to any needs or questions about the area. We would definitely check availability if we’re in the area again!!

Creepy Homeowner Lives in Basement

I travel extensively and have never experienced this type of psychotic behavior. The homeowner actually lives inside of the house in the basement. He controls the thermostat remotely. The lowest I put the thermostat at was 70 degrees, and he started to harass me through text to turn the thermostat up. Ultimately he turned it up to 85 degrees while we slept. He also pounded on the door at 11:30 at night. We felt unsafe.
