This is such an adorable home. I was pleasantly surprised with how much room it had. Much larger rooms than the photos show. Tastefully decorated, a wonderful collection of books, games, and cozy blankets. We stayed the night with 4 adults and 3 children to celebrate my Mom’s birthday, and everyone was so comfortable. It has such a homey feeling. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Disliked: Location
Overall the home was comfortable but there were a few frustrations. The listing advertises baby items however the crib mattress and playpen mat both had yellow stains on them which rendered them unusable. The listing also states cookware but the pots were badly scratched/damaged so we had to buy our own to cook. The upstairs window unit is riddled with mold and the room smells musty. The location was less than ideal and I did not feel safe going outside at night.
