We had read in past reviews about a couple of small issues. Things like needing an extension cord and handsoap. We are happy to report that the hosts respond to reviews because everything that we needed was already there! Soap, shampoo, garbage bags, paper towels, TP, etc.
Yes, the stairs ARE super steep, (think "carpeted ladder" kind of steepness), but they are doable, for sure, with the handrail!
Be sure to reset the thermostat if you like it different than what it is programmed, because it is warmer upstairs than down, and we woke up a little warm the first morning. There are ceiling fans which helped and it was fine on the following days, once we reprogrammed the temp!
The master bedroom mattress is on the softer side, at least for our taste, but we realize that is a subjective thing!
The only thing we would mention is that the ironing board could use a new cover! It was clean but the tie was broken so it wouldn't stay on the board, making it difficult to iron on! I am sure it will be replaced after the hosts see this review so no worries recommending this place!
We loved the Victorian Village homes, just a couple blocks away and took morning walks to Stauf's Coffee Roasters on Neil Ave. located in a huge, old, stone church building. This neighborhood felt safe. It seemed to be a mix of college students and families.
A lot of vehicles use the alley next to the house and the window covering in the kitchen is somewhat sheer, so keep that in mind! 😬
We enjoyed Columbus... if you love coffee, check with the Chamber of Commerce about their "Coffee Experience"!
