- 3 bedrooms with super comfy, premium mattresses (one KING, one QUEEN, and one BUNK with TWIN mattresses). When it's nice out, feel free to sleep in the fresh air on the day bed in the screened-in porch.

- Soft, 100% organic cotton LANE LINEN brand sheets. Luxury hotel-feel and ethically made with Fair Trade Practices.

- Kitchen is dopamine-boosting and popping with happy colors. We have coffee and tea here for you, a toaster, oven, hot water microwave. Please enjoy the FORGED GERMAN STAINLESS STEEL KNIVES, pots and pans and baking sheets to harness your inner Gordon Ramsay...

Super clean and great communication from the host, Jacob! Cute house with plenty of space for our family of 5. Had everything we needed for our trip. Great location to old Westerville and great food options! And great space for our dog, had a nice fenced in area for him to roam around a bit. Thank you!

Host was quick to respond with details and made the process of check in, check out and everything in between seamless. Home was clean with enough room to stretch out and relax. The site had all amenities as listed. I would definitely stay again. One note: even though the host states it is on a busy street, we were impressed by the quiet neighborhood and never noticed any outside noise.

We were able to enjoy the remarkable quiet even though the street is fairly busy.The bedroom we used is at the back of the house and they did a fantastic job of making it DARK. I slept in one day until 11 and it was still dark. Great shades.The bathroom is small but functional and the towels and toilet paper were very good.The kitchen is as well as well stocked as ours at home. If you need it, it is there.The refrigerator is very cute as is the microwave...both designed to look like antiques. There is a small fenced in side yard for our dog and that was very helpful.The screened in back porch is probably special but the weather was not at all cooperative for sitting outside. Jacob and his wife have an eclectic sense of style making it a fun place...a little Hawaii, a little southwest, and a little klitch.The main bed is a king. We are used to a king foam bed so when I first got in, it felt hard but it slept really well. Got up refreshed .. when I got up. Place is clean. I'm pretty OCD on things like that and it met every test.When we first arrived I was hesitant. The yard was weedy, the house not especially attractive, driveway has cracks in the asphalt and the fence looked like I might have put it up. Truthfully, it is the least attractive house around. My first impression was that we overpaid.Ever heard the expression " trying to make a silk purse out of a pig's ear"?That's this place. But they did!!!The inside is great in about every way you can think of.

Really adorable cozy cottage! We were in town to visit the Columbus zoo and wanted to stay somewhere with more room than a hotel. Bedrooms were so cozy and comfy. Really appreciated tiny details like having coffee filters provided, lotion in the bathroom, easy checkout, adorable decor! Place is small and the sounds travel, so it’s not a place where someone could easily go to sleep and others could stay up making noise. We were pleasantly surprised by the cute town of Westerville! So charming. We would certainly stay here again.

The Good Place was The Perfect Place

The Good Place was the perfect place for me during my visit to the Columbus area. Jacob and Pami thought of everything I needed for an enjoyable relaxing stay. Don’t let the unassuming exterior fool you. When you open the door you will find a beautifully renovated modern interior with a few retro touches just for fun. Hats off to the designers for their masterful use of color and patterns! The beds were comfortable and it was quiet at night. I enjoyed the rocking chairs on the screened in porch and appreciated having access to a private backyard. An albino squirrel even showed himself to me for a few moments. What a treat! Check in went smoothly and I loved walking into the welcoming soft lighting from the table lamps scattered throughout the house. Jacob made himself available if needed and was very respectful of my privacy. I felt safe and secure. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks for hosting me!
