Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

Nicely appointed, small house in quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room for just me being there and it would accommodate a second person as well. The queen bed is soft and comfortable, and the interior appears freshly remodeled. The pictures on the website are accurate and provide a good representation of the unit.
