Especially communication A small group of college athletes in town for a tournament. The place was perfect, spacious, clean and inviting. Communication with the owners was fantastic. The place had everything we needed. Thank you! ##### Laurie K. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mary O. Sep 15, 2024 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in #### Nice location. Needs better housekeeping. The location was very good. Quiet neighborhood. Housekeeping was poor. The dryer had a full load of partially dried towels and bedding. The bedrooms need a nightstand on both sides of the bed. Kitchen window and outside patio furniture very dirty. Need a curtain over the kitchen window as the late day sun made it impossible to work in there. We had 4 people in our group and we needed to stock the bathrooms with the appropriate amount of towels. No guide to the local area. Looks like these owners are new to the rental business. Needs improvement. ##### Mary O.
