The house was very nice and in a great location, one of the few places without people right on top of you on the sides. Not having central air isn’t a major issue but no window units in the bedroom definitely makes sleeping a little annoying as there was no breeze and the floor fans just are moving humid air. And if you have kids you know if they aren’t comfortable no one is sleeping. All of the beds were firm so if that isn’t your preference you are out of luck.
