Charles is a very conscientious VRBO member who was available when I had difficulty entering. This home has been recently updated and the interior decor is quite attractive and comfortable. The bathroom even has an in floor heating system. The house is located in an older section of town but the entire street of homes are well maintained. The location is super convenient to the university and all the activities in downtown Edwardsville.
