The host was great and very communicative! The place was clean and had enough space for everyone! The extra downstairs bathroom was a life saver! I will say that there is a bar across the street which was a little rowdy, but not too bad. This location was down the street from a really cute coffee shop and pizza place that became a family favorite during our stay!
