Not our cup of tea
I really wanted to like this place but we had multiple issues with the property. As a positive, the property owner, Jake, was very responsive and helpful where he could be. The house had not been cleaned when we got here but he sent a cleaner over right away and was very apologetic. There are a number of things wrong and unsafe with this property. This is an old house. The wiring is questionable and the ceiling fan wobbles like it’s getting ready to fall out. Many of the lights don’t work and the bathroom light is like a strobe light. Bathroom sink doesn’t drain but at least the shower is nice. Backyard and front parking is shared with the little studio apartment out back… not private as advertised. Glass and metal shards in the back yard as well as an unsecured unused refrigerator. Nine mile road was busy and loud on Friday but better on the weekend. Uneven rickety stairs with no railing. We were glad it was relatively cool at night, because although the listing and says it has air conditioning, there is none. We were glad we brought a couple of fans. Beds were comfortable but don’t plan on sleeping on the front room couch/futon as it is lumpy and springs show through. Nine mile road is busy and loud. There are windows missing in the basement, which could allows easy access to the house as there is no way to lock the door to the main floor. Dead mouse in the basement as well. Overall I would not recommend, especially if you have young kids, due to safety hazards.
