Todd was a great host. He was helpful and responded quickly to my texts and needs. We didn't see or hear anyone that was living below. We loved the idea of staying in a historic landmark as well. Unfortunately, we did not have enough room for the five of us. There is no way this place could sleep 8 people. There was no kitchen, which was a huge issue for us since we wanted to save a couple bucks and cook our breakfasts and lunches. I shouldn't have assumed it did when I booked it. There was only small garbage cans with no garbage bags. We ran out of room quickly.
