The house was a big disappointment for us. In fact, we ended up not staying there because my family did not feel safe. There were unleashed dogs roaming the streets. Three of them, including a pitbull, positioned themselves at the yard fence five minutes after we checked in. The interior of the residence is okay. The kitchen has been renovated, and is nice, but the rest of the house, and furniture, is worn. Bottom line, the tagline "Jewel of Jacksonville" is extremely misleading.

Ok, but not great
Carpet was nasty, big stains on it. 3 beds without complete sheet set (needed a flat sheet).
Rest of the house was clean and nice.
Liked the security system and security lights.
Gate to fence was falling down.
Location was a not-so-great neighborhood.
Was really close to Prime Osborn Convention Center, which was good.
