This was a really clean home. We had 3 separate sleeping areas and 2 full bathrooms. This home is perfect for families with children and adult who are comfortable walking on stairs with no handrail and an open side. We had no problems with this; however, I would have been nervous if I'd had a toddler that loved to climb or an elderly person in our party because 2 of the bedrooms are upstairs and one of the sleeping rooms is down spiral stairs. You can tell from the living room picture if this will present a problem for you. For us, it was no problem at all. In fact, we loved the setup. Our 8 year old loved the cooler basement. Our teenager and we parents loved being able to look out our bedroom windows to view the nice neighborhood below. We felt perfectly save in this neighborhood. Young children were outside on the sidewalks riding bikes and playing past dark when we arrived. Neighbors on either side of us maintained nice backyard gardens and took pride in their homes. The subway was an 8-10 min walk from our place. We even felt comfortable leaving our luggage in our SUV after our checkout. We were able to park the car almost directly in front of the home each day. Once we had to park around the corner, less than 1 minute away. We'll be back.
