Needs a better locking system, such as a keypad on the door, rather than bending over a bench in the dark trying to see a numbered lock box. No music, owner said he is working on that. The heat went out but they responded quickly and fixed it that night. Close proximity to everything, but no views. The house was very quaint and well equipped. Beds comfortable. Great management
