This was a very comfortable and spacious place for us (2 seniors) and looks as if it would be great for a family with kids. The location is very convenient although walking to the Metro or Zoo requires some serious uphill climbs. The home was wonderful for entertaining local guests with plates and glasses for at least six people and also with good parking.
A couple of minor issues we noted:
- The dining room light switch was difficult to locate. I contacted the owner and received a prompt reply telling me where it was located. I really appreciate that the reply did not point out that if I had carefully read the information from airbnb and the owner, I would have already known where it was located.
- There was considerable noise from above when the people in that space were home. This was particularly disturbing early in the morning and in the evening.
- There were inch worms and spiders inside the unit. While the owner had a pest company coming to help with this, that was not scheduled until the end of our stay.
- In spite of our best efforts to keep the door closed, we both had multiple mosquito bites while inside. The house is in a very (nice) wooded area, and mosquitos are everywhere. However, we were surprised that so many found their way into the unit.
Both airbnb and the host were very easy to work with and contact.
