This is a big house with many rooms and a lot of character. Cooper and his wife are very sweet. His daughter and a few other artist-type roommates also live in the house. The house is old and a little bit creaky, so if you are a light sleeper be sure to bring earplugs as the sound insulation isn’t that great. It is a very communal space, with shared bathrooms and common areas. The hosts left some thoughtful touches such as sparkling water, local guides, and clothes hangers in the room. The room does not have a lock, but the neighborhood appears to be safe and people go in and out of the house with some regularity. Street parking was fairly easy to find except for one night when we got back fairly late, and Cooper was very thoughtful to let us park in the driveway.
