This was a charming house in a fun, vibrant part of the city. Our family of four (with small children) appreciated so many great restaurants, several grocery stores, and a park/playground all within walking distance; and numerous tourist attractions only a short Uber ride away. Our host was exceptionally responsive and helpful, facilitating our very late evening arrival and even stocking the kitchen with some essential groceries for our first day (nice touch!). Throughout the stay, the host checked in with us periodically to ensure everything was up to our expectations. Furthermore, the host provided supplemental information for our planned activities (including a trustworthy babysitter), which ended up being wonderfully helpful. A few other noteworthy comments on the house:
- We were there in the spring (October), so it was great to have the fireplace available (firewood was already stocked for us) and the heated mattress covers in all beds in the house.
- The gas grill worked flawlessly (much appreciated for the evenings we wanted to dine at the house)
- The size and placement of the windows allow for beautiful, natural lighting in the day (however, even with the curtains and shades, it may cause some early morning wakeups for those that are light sensitive-sleepers).
