The house was super comfortable for our family of four. High ceilings, no carpet, big windows, open living space and kitchen. It's an overall modern clean house but it has a few issues that wish I knew before booking.
Firstly, the house is right next to the alley so cars speed by all the time and the house sits lower than the street so it feels like you are in a basement looking out.
The house is also connected to another house so there is a shared out door space. It's hardly a backyard, more like a tree with some concrete and some greenery. It's an odd set up but very small and urban. If we weren't staying there during covid I am sure my kids would have played with the kids next door but instead they all stared at each other through the glass doors and took turns going outside.
The house is very loud so every little movement upstairs (where the bedrooms are) you hear. Down to the flushing of the toilet. It's like a rocket ship goes off each time and then it sounds like a leak coming down the drain.
The fridge was full of food of condiments and such from other guests (?) as was the pantry. Not like a few things, like a ton. Which was weird and felt like I was invading someone else's space. I guess if you don't cook all the time like myself, you might not mind. But I did.
There is also only one TV located in the living room. Which, I guess is fine if you don't have kids....
BUT, having said all this, we had a lovely stay, the host was super accommodating and quick to respond, and it was a perfect location to walk along Congress and explore the neighborhood. I would recommend this house without a doubt.
