Pros:
1. Excellent bedrooms and beds.
2. Many nice restaurants and coffee shops within easy walking distance.
3. Better than average bathrooms although the shower in the master bath has opposite controls (H is cold and C is hot and out is off and in is on).
4. Two easy parking spaces in the alley directly behind the house.
5. Nice coffee and coffee maker.
6. Pretty quiet.
Cons:
1. Owner seems unclear how certain parts of the house work like the TV for example. It took many emails between owner and I to no avail. Eventually my 13 year old figured it out after 30 minutes. We were never able to get the TV sound bar to work.
2. No central place in the house for a group to sit and visit except the outside area which had not been cleaned including cigarette butts (the kitchen is the main indoor sitting area) .
3. Kitchen does not have all supplies it says it has. For example, there is a label saying there is 10 plates when there is only 5. I did not break any plates.
4. Overall lack of attention to details (noticeable crack in the dry wall near downstairs bathroom, fire alarm hanging down from its wires in the ceiling, wine stain on the stairs) gives it an "absentee landlord" feel.
5. Owner DID offer to have management company and address my issues but I declined because I do not want to spend my vacation working with a management company to address issues.
