The house is kept up so well and very nice. I loved the neighborhood, it is beautiful, central and very quiet. I walked to and from nearby restaurants and a coffee shop a couple of times. Host was great and quick to communicate when I had extra questions. The back porch was very lovely. Would definitely stay there again.
