Mr. Ben and wife were cool. complete privacy. only small issue was parking. kinda hard to find a parking spot near the rental. a few years back we wouldn't care and would actually enjoy parking blocks away, but now with 2 small children it's a must to have parking on the spot. Let Mr. Ben know and right away he let us have the driveway for the rest of our stay. Home was pretty cool, and LOVED the patio! over all everything was great!!
