I would reiterate many of the comments shared by Steve (July 2021) in his review. Jonathan was very accommodating and flexible, which we appreciated tremendously. The area is spacious and quiet, and his kitchen was available for us to use. The dehumidifier was a big help in keeping the basement area comfortable and temperate. Best of all, we were close to our son which made driving between places a breeze.
Greater attention to detail is needed to better clean the bathroom, and to dust away cobwebs. The chair in the sitting/tv room is quite stained and needs a good cleaning or replacement. The sitting room had no table, so there's nowhere to set down a cup, book, phone etc. There also is no place to put a suitcase or hang a jacket. There is only a fluorescent ceiling light in the bedroom with the double bed, and the switch is in the sitting room. The double bed is very low to the floor (no box spring) and it was difficult for my husband and I to get in/out of because we both have bad knees. Recommended improvements would be a lamp and luggage rack for the bedroom and a table for the sitting room. I also encourage Jonathan to remove extraneous things like the old typewriter and radio, and make improvements/upgrades that will enhance the stay of his future guests.
