The neighborhood was so lovely and quiet. We walked home around 11:00 most nights and always felt safe. We drove up but didn't want to drive once we got there and were able to easily find a parking spot on the same street where our car stayed during our stay with no issues. The host was super responsive and accommodating! I even messaged late at night that we had run out of toilet paper, not expecting a response until morning, but received a response and toilet paper right away! I will say if you are staying in the summer(it was 90 during the day when we were there) that the place does not really cool off in the evening because you can't get a good breeze from outside. I would suggest bringing a couple of extra fans, especially if you're used to sleeping in a cool house like we are.
