Nice, cozy house, very looking and style. Wonderful location. Close to everything downtown. ##### Joseph ### 8/10 Good #### Jose C. Jan 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Great Little House over all a great little place, images make it look a WHOLE lot bigger than what it is. Small issues, rooms dont have any doors for privacy, electric outlets are the two prong ones, cant charge phones unless you get adapter and when you plug something in, you get a shock. Needs to be looked at, the 3rd room has no access from inside house, you have to leave the main place and go downstairs. Lastly, we were there in Jan, and it was cold, place has many places where cold air comes in, especially the downstairs room. I would definitely stay here again. ##### Jose C.
