Clean and very cute.

It obviously took a lot of work to make this a usable place to stay. Because I have an interest in rehabilitating challenging properties, I took a look in the basement. All of the basement walls had to be straightened and reinforced to rescue this house. It was done well. ALL of the plumbing had been replaced as had the HVAC system, and a sump pump installed to guard the basement from future damage. I'm certain it wasn't cheap or easy.
As for the amenities, it's obvious the owner has done this before --and done some research on how to do this not just properly, but with excellence. There were many nice, considerate touches (like a sticker on the coffee pot that said, "The coffee is probably in the freezer.")
For me, there are two things that really tell the story of how a property owner regards their guests:
1. The shower. In this house, it is excellent. Good flow, plenty of room, attention to detail, nice extra touch with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in dispensers mounted to the wall. Plenty of towels easily accessible. Well done. A+
2. Toilet paper. Property owners who supply the cheapest toilet paper they can buy hate their guests, or at a minimum, have some kind of weird sado-masochistic desire to torture them. In this case, I'm guessing the product supplied was the same one the owners use in their own home. Not Charmin Ultra Soft, but definitely a top-tier brand. (Oh, and I noticed you rescued the original 1940's era art-deco TP holder that was probably there when the house was built.) Again, A+.
I had booked the property two months before my arrival and forgotten that I should have contacted the property owner a couple of days before my stay. It took two phone calls and less than 15 minutes to reach him by phone. I was given a door code and got in easily.

Very quaint. Love the look

Quiet neighborhood, roomy, close to a good breakfast spot - the Elbow Room
It's been upgraded recently and there was still some off gassing of the new materials
