Darrow was a pleasant person to correspond with. Unfortunately, the cleanliness of her place left a lot to be desired. Although we were instructed to take our shoes off (and we complied) the floor appeared to have debris such that when I wiped a paper towel across the floor of the living room and the kitchen it was dark with grime. Also, in the bathroom there were some urine stains on the rim of the toilet and the toilet bowl was unclean. The day after arrival we had to buy cleaning supplies and gloves and spend several hours getting things more sanitized - especially in the bathrooms and the kitchen area. It was a little disappointing and with a slight jet-lag we didn't want to have to complain to her not knowing if it would be resolved, but we did feel that the cleanliness level should have been taken care before we arrived. The appliances such as the coffee maker and blender just looked too aged and unclean for our use. The tired looking utensils left much to be desired as well. In addition, the window treatments in the master bedroom were "see-through" at night and did not give adequate privacy.

However, in all fairness the neighborhood was nice, safe and conveniently located. Also, I would say that this place can be considered an economical choice for a larger party, it does have 3 beds and 3 baths. Just keep in mind that this is the owner's main residence and she may need to pop in from time to time, although in our case she only came on our final morning.
