Clean and nicely appointed 3 bed, 2 bath adequately sized unit. Quiet area and convenient location for our needs. Only downside was the very loud heating system that disrupted ability to sleep.

Charming Converted Home with Modern Touches
This cozy converted single-family home offers a pleasant stay with spacious rooms and contemporary renovations. While there were a few quirks, our overall experience was enjoyable.AccommodationsThe listing states it can accommodate up to 6 people (3 couples), but it's more comfortable for 3 adults. The rooms are generously sized and mostly well-maintained. The beds are pleasantly firm, which we appreciated.AmenitiesBathroom: The shared bathroom, though small with an awkward layout, provided new, complimentary towels – a thoughtful touch.Kitchen: Spacious and inviting, but we encountered issues with the non-functioning microwave and an overflowing ice machine.Climate Control: The heating system worked efficiently, keeping us warm during chilly nights. However, it can be quite noisy when activated.Comfort and ConvenienceThe house rules were minimal and easy to follow. Light bed coverings were sufficient when the heat was on. Note that sound insulation between floors is limited; we could clearly hear the family staying in the unit below.LocationThe rental's location is optimal, with stores and restaurants close by, most within walking distance. For those looking for additional entertainment options, a short drive opens up even more possibilities.In summary, this rental offers a comfortable stay with some modern amenities, ideal for smaller groups seeking a homey atmosphere in a convenient location. While there's room for improvement in certain areas, the spaciousness, cleanliness, and proximity to local attractions make it a solid choice for a holiday getaway.
