The location is prime! Cute cottage is a great descriptive. As far as being in a home, the places worked great. The front and back yard were a little unkept, but it’s not like I’m welcoming guests onto property and needed a clean area. For all the mention of not smoking cigarettes on the property, there were two leftover receptacles of cigarette butts. Whoever cleaned the apartment before us did not replace the dishes from the dishwasher and did not throw out leftover food in the fridge. The rest of the apartment was clean, so I’m thinking it was just an accident.
