The house was quiet and clean, close to restaurants. It is not close to downtown (about 25 minutes) but it worked for us since we just needed a place to stay for one night and had our at to get us around. The only negative was that we were 3 people and since there was only 1 queen bed, we were asked if we needed an air mattress, to which we said yes. Unfortunately, when we arrived the bed on the floor was not an air mattress but a duvet on the floor... so that was not the best sleep. I would not recommend the stay for more than 2 adults in this case. We did not get to meet our host in person but communication was good and his parents who were there when we arrived were welcoming.
