The house was clean, the kitchen well equipped and I appreciated the attention to detail - paper towels, soap, shampoos, facial tissues, etc. My host replied promptly to questions and went over and above with accommodations. This was a wonderful place to stay!

Caren was a splendid guest. She is thoughtful and considerate, very responsible in her care of the property and communicates effectively, in a friendly manner. We would be delighted to welcome her again and recommend her highly to any other hosts.

A 5-star stay! The host was incredibly welcoming, the house was sparkling clean, and the location was convenient for our needs (near airport and 390). The neighborhood is near the beautiful Genesee Valley Park and University of Rochester campus, but just be aware that it is probably safer to park at the lot on Elmwood Ave and Moore Rd rather than walk across (the sometimes busy) Scottsville Rd.

Delighted that you enjoyed the Craftsman Cottage, Satya. Our goal is always to make guests comfortable in a clean and inviting home. We like finding often-used pantry items in the kitchen when we travel, and assume that our guests will too.
