The neighborhood is a safe place. The house itself is on the street, but it’s not too busy. The most misleading part is where the owners say they live next door; they actually live in the same building and you share a wall. They have a pool table and a roof deck, but they live under that deck and there’s rules about not being loud. While it does sleep 8, you are not to make noise and the 2 sofa beds were very uncomfortable as the crease in the middle when it folds to a bed sticks out into your back. Other than that, the house is beautiful and clean, but if you’re planning to use it for anything other than just sleeping, I think you should look elsewhere.
