What guests say
Reviews commonly highlight the quiet neighborhood setting and an overall positive impression of the home. Some feedback indicates the property is clearly configured for short-term rental use. Guests also note that lower-level (basement) bedrooms may have limited sound insulation, with noise from footsteps and plumbing carrying between floors.
