Pros:
-Clean
-Adorable home, nicely renovated
-Comfortable beds
-Did not cook any meals, but the kitchen seemed well stocked and it is beautiful.
-Furniture and decor attractive and just right
-Cozy
-Sound machines in bedrooms
-Easy to find and gain access
Cons:
-Only 1 roll of toilet paper (and not even a full roll) provided
-The cheapest (literally Dollar Tree) 3-in-1 shampoo/conditioner/body wash- yuck.
-Though the neighborhood seemed tidy and safe, the house directly across the street is SKETCHY. Definitely witnessed some questionable activities over there. But that’s not something that can be helped by the owner.
-Although the home felt very clean overall, there were some stray pet hairs on the sheets and particularly on the spare pillows in the closet, such that we opted not to use those. For non-pet people, that’s a little off-putting.
-The 1 bathroom is TINY. But, that can’t be helped and we knew there was only 1 bathroom going in.
Overall, great rental. Would stay again.
