The pictures online were definitely done well to present the property in a professional manner. The pictures make it look like the property is sitting on a big piece of land by itself. When in reality you're on a very busy street with people drag racing in the middle of the night. There is virtually no sound barrier on the walls or floors so you feel and hear everything. Also, the driveway is not well lit at night, and I easily missed it. The pictures show a fire pit with chairs but then you are told you can't be outside past 10 pm. The beds were decent, but each room was hard to regulate the temperatures inside. We ended up going and purchasing our own fans to try and stay cool. We would wake up hot in the middle of the night sweating even though it was just 70° outside. I understand these older homes can be tough to regulate temperatures from one room to the next. It was almost 10° difference. I couldn't imagine staying here in the summer heat. Bathrooms were a little sketchy as when I pulled the knob to turn the shower on and the entire faucet came up off the wall. Definitely not secure and needs some tlc. The window privacy tint wasn't done professionally and people can see inside easily. Some windows had breaks with tape over them. The overall experience wasn't terrible but I felt I really overpaid for what we received.
