Angie is a great host. She is responsive and helpful if problems arise. The home is very spacious. Be aware that it is right next to a well lighted gas station and when folks mention the busy street--it is actually a four lane highway like road. There is a fair amount of road noise but surprisingly not much at night so it did not interfere with sleep. It is close to downtown but due to walking alongside the busy road for the fastest route there--we ended up driving. You can actually see Trader Joe's and Harris Teeter across the street from the house--and Five Guys restaurant is right across the street. Whole Foods is also very close by--you have to cross the street to access them all. We really appreciated that it was dog friendly and there is a nice yard that our dog enjoyed exploring (she loves to sniff) but be careful on crumbly stone steps up to the yard. I could see this being a good place for a couple with a young child--lots of room inside to play and it is set up for kids in many ways.
