Don't Stay here.

Sorry Lark, but I have to be brutally honest. The location ( stellar!!) is the ONLY good thing about this rental. DIRTY!! Dead flys on ceiling in bathroom, dust,mold,bugs on window sills. Curtains hung with thin metal rods that fell every time opening and closing curtains. Kitchen NOT WELL STOCKED. Could hardly cook. No cork screw, Non functioning can opener. 1 bathroom towel on arrival. No toilet paper. Washer and dryer down some horrible stairs where it was dark and FULL of cobwebs. With a little effort and attention to cleanliness this could be an excellent place. Put PLEASE Lark..spruce this place up before you rent to anyone else!!! Christine

Flop house

Rent this house only if you’re desperate or want to have a frat party. The single toilet cannot be used if you shower, do dishes or laundry. A real problem for six people. My grandson had to poop in a pail. Furnishings shabby and linens musty on arrival. Walls were patched and some unpainted. Big leak in kitchen ceiling. Black mold on outside of house. Grill rusted and not working. Outdoor chairs dirty and missing cushions. Finally — only two beds! Leather sofa bed in pics replaced with dirty sofa with slipcover. Kitchen didn’t have a pot to make pasta. No trash bags or dish detergent. I could go on.
