Beautiful... But Not a Home Away from Home
This is a beautiful, clean house in a great neighborhood with just about every store you need nearby. It's a distance from the city (took 45 min. to get to the aquarium) but the area is safe. The owner was very communicative. However, there are some things you should consider.
1. There is no master bedroom available. If you are used to getting a big room with a private bathroom, you will not have that here. All the bedrooms are guest rooms and use a hallway bathroom. The master is blocked off. You are also blocked off from access to the garage. At the same price, you can find other rentals that have access to all rooms.
2. This is not a typical "home away from home". The house is decorated beautifully, but it definitely feels like you are in someone else's space. I've had a few home rentals, but this is the first where the owner had personal pictures of their family in the house. There are a lot of personal effects so it doesn't have a homey feel for the renter. There was also a note in the welcome book asking to respect their items, which was fine, but it was a first for us that they had their own food items in the house. We just ended up not using the cabinets and pushed their items to one side of the fridge so no one would get confused and use their property.
3. Not recommended for small children. We ended up not having our 2 y/o grandchild visit because of all the decor. It is very beautiful, but there a quite a few things for little hands to break.
