This is a very pleasant place to stay. The owners have kindly left earplugs in the bedrooms for dealing with the train noise (see other reviews below.) However, we rather enjoyed having the train go by in the mornings (around 7:05am). The ceilings are high, and the bedrooms feel airy. The beds are quite comfortable. Our car fit well in the off-street parking, and we were able to share the space with our downstairs neighbors. There were enough supplies for washing up, etc. for our stay.
Below are three areas where the property lost points:
The kitchen is lovely and plenty large, but it lacks some utensils, particularly cooking knives. If you're planning on eating out a lot it's not a big problem. But there needs to at least be a good bread knife and more kitchen towels. There is plenty of room for groceries. We had to scout around for things such as bottle opener (which is dull and should probably be replaced) and tongs, etc. If all you want the kitchen for is the simplest breakfast or microwave meals, you'll be fine. If you want to do more, I'd suggest bringing your knives (and wine/bottle opener) with you.
Dining -- there is one table in the kitchen with 2 high stools. No other dining table. We did all our breakfasting in the TV room/ Other meals were away. The TV, is Roku. No local stations. We used the HDMI cable (provided) to stream shows from our laptop.
The balcony is great for watching the trains go by. Sadly, the only balcony furniture is one metal folding chair. It's not very inviting.
Communication: We called the rental company at 4:20pm on the day we arrived, just after checking (we had a few simple issues). The call went to voicemail (with the usual "our hours are...'til 5:00pm M-F"). I tried calling again at 4:40, and 5. Still no answer. Finally called the "emergency" number and got a human. Turns out they were having a meeting (during the time people are checking in, leaving no one on the phones.) They weren't able to help with our issues because each one was "up to the owner". So owner, please get balcony furniture, knives, and let people add streaming services, or better yet, get local channels.
Would we rent again? You bet! My peeves are small, and this is a nice place (my mom loved it.) Would we recommend? Yes! If you've had a big night out the trains might be an issue, but honestly, we loved them. It's a nice place in a decent location. Just be sure to follow the caveats, and you'll be fine.
