Cozy stay for Daughter's College Graduation

Before we stepped foot into the home, the owners maintain clear communication regaring our upcoming stay. From the moment we stepped foot in the property, we felt at home. It was very cozy, smelled great and it was very clean. The backyard was great for hanging out and enjoying coffee in the morning and playing games at night. The living room was our favorite place to gather because the couch was so comfy and there were games for us to play. There was plenty of room for us all to sleep comfortable and enjoy each other's company. Would highly recommend this property.

Could’ve been better

Unfortunately we did not have the best visit at this renatal. The Front door locking system was a huge pain. We were locked out of the house several times and had to call the owner. Why the code changes automatically while we’re staying there is beyond me. I would give the cleanliness of the house was 6/10. Make sure you clean the kitchen utensils and coffee machine when you arrive. . The mattresses need to be changed out in our opinion. I would rate my over all stay at 5/10
