The room was clean with fresh sheets and towels. The house is older and very large, with several bedrooms for guests. However, because this house is used for students throughout the academic year, the kitchen and common living area weren't all that clean. There were no spices or anything of that sort in the kitchen, so cooking was a bit difficult. We had to purchase everything in order to make a decent meal, or just get takeout. Something to keep in mind for those who like to save money on food and just cook every day. The host was not around that much, but nice.
