Good property for single women in their 20s.. however not so great for someone in their later years. Those who don't mind a shared bathroom and no TV in the room good just to sleep . I would not recommend it for someone who would like their own bathroom or a holiday/vacation for an extended period of time.The home is shared with guests and owner. The parking not great and lots of house rules as its a shared home with owner. Not as vrbo advertised. Should really be under a different portal. Otherwise the owner was accommodating with requests
