Not a bad drive south into the city - averaged about 18-20 minutes. Steep driveway so a slight issue with "bottoming out" when leaving the house. Direct TV in the large den area, but not the "front room." Bring throw blankets for use on the large leather couch. The two non-master bedrooms are small. The dresser drawers are not for use (filled with owner's clothes) so plan on "working" out of the suitcase. No dining room table - just a high, 4 chair table in the kitchen.
